PRP Treatment Belgrade (Vampire Treatment)

PRP treatment, also known as the vampire treatment, is a rejuvenation procedure that uses your own blood plasma to trigger the skin’s natural renewal processes. It is a biological, not a chemical, approach — meaning no foreign substances are introduced into the body. PRP treatment is used today in aesthetic dermatology, acne scar treatment, and rejuvenation of the skin on the face and neck.

The body already has everything it needs to renew itself. PRP treatment simply activates it.

What Is PRP Treatment (Vampire Treatment)

PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma. Platelets are blood cells that are naturally responsible for tissue healing. They contain growth factors — proteins that stimulate the formation of new cells, collagen, and blood vessels. When concentrated and injected directly into the skin or scalp, these growth factors accelerate tissue renewal at the treated site.

The name “vampire treatment” comes from the fact that the procedure begins with drawing your blood and ends with injecting it back into the skin.

How the Procedure Works, Step by Step

Blood Draw

A small amount of blood is drawn from a vein, just like a standard laboratory blood test.

Centrifugation

The blood is placed in a special device that centrifuges it and separates the platelet-rich plasma from the other blood components.

Skin Preparation

The treatment area is cleaned with a surgical antiseptic, and then an anesthetic cream is applied to make the procedure as comfortable as possible.

Plasma Injection

The concentrated plasma is injected into the skin or scalp using fine needles, in a technique similar to mesotherapy.

The entire process is sterile, and all instruments are single-use, which eliminates any risk of contamination.

PRP Face Treatment: Who Is the Right Candidate

PRP face treatment is suitable for a wide range of patients. It is most often chosen by people who notice the first signs of aging, a tired-looking complexion, or specific concerns such as acne scars.

Good candidates have:

Fine lines and surface wrinkles
Loss of skin elasticity and tone
Acne scars
Dark circles and wrinkles around the eyes
Uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation
Dry, tired, or dull skin

Not recommended if you have:

Active infections or open wounds
Active-phase herpes
Malignant diseases or blood disorders
Anticoagulant therapy
Platelet count below 150,000/ml
Pregnancy or breastfeeding

A consultation is conducted before every treatment, during which the doctor assesses whether you are the right candidate.

PRP Neck Treatment: Rejuvenating Skin That Is Often Overlooked

The skin on the neck ages faster than facial skin, and the reason is simple: it is exposed to the sun nearly as much as the face, yet it rarely receives the same attention in daily skincare. The first changes to appear are loss of elasticity, fine lines, and skin laxity, which can detract from your overall appearance even when the face is well maintained.

PRP neck treatment works on the same principle as face treatment. Your own platelet-rich plasma is injected into the skin of the neck, where growth factors stimulate the production of new collagen and tissue renewal.

Good candidates for PRP neck treatment are people who have:

Lax and inelastic neck skin
Fine lines and creases on the neck
Uneven skin tone and dry neck skin
Visible signs of aging on the neck that do not match the appearance of the face

Neck treatment is often performed in combination with face treatment as a single procedure that delivers a uniform, natural result across both areas.

Does PRP Treatment Hurt and What to Expect

This is the question most patients ask before booking, and understandably so. The short answer is: PRP treatment is as comfortable as a needle-based procedure can be.

Before the plasma is injected, an anesthetic cream is applied to the skin, which acts locally and significantly reduces any discomfort. Most patients describe the treatment as a mild tingling sensation, not pain.

After the treatment, it is normal to experience:

Mild redness in the treated area
Minor swelling
Skin sensitivity to touch

These effects are temporary and typically resolve within one to two days. You can return to your daily activities immediately after the treatment, with no recovery period required.

One thing to keep in mind: for ten days before and after the treatment, you should avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), as they can reduce platelet activity and diminish the effect of the treatment. For pain relief during that period, medications based on acetaminophen (paracetamol) are permitted.

How Many Treatments Are Needed to See Results

PRP treatment is not a one-time procedure. For results to be visible and long-lasting, a series of three treatments is recommended, with four to six weeks between each session.

The first effects may be noticeable within a few days of treatment, but full results develop gradually. The reason is straightforward: the growth factors released by the plasma remain active for seven to ten days after injection, and the complete maturation of new collagen takes several weeks. You can expect to see the final results one month after completing the treatment series.

Results that can be expected:

Refreshed and more radiant skin after the first treatment
Improved skin elasticity and tone
Gradual reduction of acne scars and wrinkles

The effects last an average of four to six months, after which a single maintenance treatment is recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions About PRP Treatment

PRP treatment is a rejuvenation procedure that uses your own platelet-rich blood plasma. The plasma is obtained by centrifuging your blood and is then injected into the skin. It triggers the natural processes of tissue renewal and collagen production, without introducing any foreign substances into the body.

The name comes from the fact that the procedure begins with drawing your blood and ends with injecting it back into the skin. Since only your own blood is used, there is no risk of an allergic reaction or rejection.

No, PRP treatment is not painful. An anesthetic cream is applied before the procedure, which locally reduces discomfort. Most patients describe the treatment as a mild tingling sensation. Any redness and minor swelling that may occur after the treatment resolve within one to two days.

A single PRP treatment session takes between 45 and 60 minutes, including the blood draw, centrifugation, and the injection itself. If the treatment is combined with a dermapen or laser, the procedure may take longer.

A series of three treatments is recommended, spaced four to six weeks apart. The first effects may be noticeable within a few days of the first treatment, but full results are visible one month after completing the series.

The results last an average of four to six months, after which a single maintenance treatment is recommended. With regular annual maintenance, the skin of the face and neck remains refreshed and elastic over the long term.

PRP face treatment is most effective for fine lines and wrinkles, loss of elasticity, acne scars, dark circles around the eyes, uneven skin tone, and hyperpigmentation. It delivers particularly good results for acne scars, where it stimulates the production of new collagen that gradually fills in depressions in the skin.

PRP treatment is a low-risk procedure. Since your own blood is used, allergic reactions are virtually ruled out. After treatment, mild redness, minor swelling, and skin sensitivity may occur, all of which resolve within one to two days. The main risk is infection at the injection site, but this is minimized by the sterile procedure and single-use instruments.

No, the procedure is identical. The same method of centrifuging your blood and injecting the plasma with fine needles is used. The only difference is which area is treated. The skin on the neck is often more sensitive, but the application of anesthetic cream makes the procedure comfortable there as well.

Yes, neck treatment is often combined with face treatment in a single session. This achieves a uniform result across both areas, and the patient does not need to come in for two separate procedures.

PRP neck treatment is most effective for loss of elasticity, fine lines and creases, lax skin, and uneven skin tone. It is especially suitable for people who notice that the appearance of their neck does not match the appearance of their face.

For ten days before treatment, aspirin and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen, diclofenac, and naproxen should be avoided. The same medications should also be avoided for ten days after treatment. For pain relief during that period, acetaminophen (paracetamol)-based medications are permitted.

PRP treatment is not recommended for people with malignant diseases, systemic blood disorders, active skin infections, active-phase herpes, or anticoagulant therapy. It is also not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. People with a platelet count below 150,000/ml cannot expect optimal results.

The price depends on the area being treated. We recommend scheduling a consultation to receive a precise treatment plan and pricing tailored to your needs.

Yes, PRP treatment is often combined with mesotherapy, hyaluronic acid fillers, dermapen, and laser treatments. Combined treatments deliver a stronger effect because the methods complement and enhance each other, boosting the skin’s regenerative response.
