Vampire Breast Lift Cost and Procedure Guide

If you’ve been considering a breast augmentation or lift and want to explore non-surgical options, a vampire breast lift might be worth looking into. Read on to learn more about the procedure itself, including preparation and recovery; the costs and side effects of this type of breast lift; and how it compares to a traditional breast lift.

What Is a Vampire Breast Lift?

A vampire breast lift is a cosmetic procedure involving injecting platelet-rich plasma — plasma separated from your own blood in a centrifuge — into your breasts (hence the “vampire”). This may result in lifted and fuller breasts and improved skin texture and tone.¹

Vampire Breast Lift vs. Traditional Breast Lift

The vampire breast lift is a non-invasive procedure with minimal preparation and downtime and less permanent results, meaning you can test-drive a breast lift without committing to implants or a surgical procedure. This procedure is an alternative option for women with mild to moderate sagging of the breasts.¹

A traditional breast lift (mastopexy) — with or without breast implants — is a surgical procedure that has more potential implications, more scarring, a higher cost and a longer recovery time.²

That being said, it’s unlikely you’ll get the same results. A vampire breast lift works by temporarily improving skin elasticity, whereas a traditional breast lift surgically transforms the breast shape.¹

How Much Does a Vampire Breast Lift Cost?

Depending on a variety of factors, such as your geographic location and surgeon’s fees, the cost^** of a vampire breast lift in the U.S. can vary from $2,021 to $4,537, with an average cost^** of $2,697 compared to an average cost^** of $7,792 for a traditional breast lift.³

How Can You Pay for a Vampire Breast Lift?

There are several ways to pay for a vampire breast lift, depending on what your provider offers and your budget. Some pay upfront with cash, check or a credit/debit card. Others may choose a payment plan offered through the practice.

If you’d prefer to pay over time, the CareCredit credit card is another option many patients use for out-of-pocket health and wellness services. If approved, you can make monthly payments (with promotional financing options where available). Promotional financing options vary, so review the details and ask the office whether they accept CareCredit before deciding.

Preparing for a Vampire Breast Lift

Minimal preparation is required for a vampire breast lift. Your doctor will ask you about your medical history, perform a breast exam and may order a mammogram. Your doctor may also suggest you stop taking certain medications before the procedure.²

What to Expect During a Vampire Breast Lift Procedure

The entire procedure typically takes around 30 to 60 minutes. For the procedure:¹

1. The doctor will clean and disinfect your breasts.
2. They will then draw a small amount of blood from your arm.
3. The blood will be centrifuged to separate the platelets.
4. The platelet-rich plasma will be injected into your breasts with a thin needle.
5. The injection sites will be covered with bandages.

Vampire Breast Lift Recovery

There is little to no downtime following a vampire breast lift, but there is a small possibility of infection, bleeding and bruising.¹

The results typically last one to two years, but some women get treatments every six to 12 months to maintain results. A vampire breast life increases the perkiness and fullness of your breasts, but it will not increase your cup size.¹

Potential Side Effects of a Vampire Breast Lift

As previously mentioned, you aren’t likely to get the same results from a vampire breast lift as a full breast lift, so it’s important to have realistic expectations going into the procedure.

The typical side effects are minimal bleeding, swelling and bruising.¹ But the possibility is much lower if you use an experienced provider who has a good track record of performing the procedure.
