I Got a Vampire Breast Lift and It Changed Everything

My boobs have never looked so good.

The Process Having gotten the signature O-Shot, a PRP treatment that injects platelets into your G-Spot and clitoris, just a few weeks prior for another story I was working on, the idea of getting poked in a fattier, less sensitive area of my body didn't really phase me. Shortly after arriving and filling out a waiver, I was taken to a treatment room where I was prepped for a blood draw.

Before drawing my blood, DeLucia asked what my goal was (to round out the upper portion of my side boob, while helping to achieve a perkier pair overall) and devised a plan to inject PRP into the sides of each breast and between them for an overall rounder effect and more defined cleavage.

First, DeLucia smeared a topical numbing cream all over my chest to desensitize the area. Next, she drew my blood in FDA-approved kits and spun it in a centrifuge to isolate the PRP. She noted that, while all PRP treatments require a different amount of blood to prove effective, my Vampire Breast Lift would require 25 CC of PRP per breast. No biggie.

DeLucia first injected the sides of my breasts with PRP. For the cleavage area, she added some hyaluronic acid to the PRP to help create a fuller, lifted effect. This was the only area that hurt during the treatment. "The body re-absorbs the injected hyaluronic acid filler, if used, which acts as a scaffolding for the recruited stem cells and re-absorbs the platelet-rich fibrin matrix," DeLucia explained. In other words, it's the building block of the non-invasive augmentation of your dreams. Note that you can opt out of the hyaluronic acid filler if you prefer to use only your own fluids, however, it may affect the outcome.
