Introduction to Blood Dump
At Ashley Bruno Aesthetics, we understand that there are situations where individuals may need to reduce their blood volume for medical reasons, but traditional blood donation may not be an option due to eligibility criteria. In response to this need, we offer a specialized service known as Blood Dump. This service provides an alternative way to address blood volume reduction in a relaxing and comfortable environment.

What is Blood Dump?
Blood Dump is a unique medical procedure offered at Ashley Bruno Aesthetics that allows individuals to safely and comfortably reduce their blood volume. It serves as an alternative to traditional blood donation, especially when individuals do not qualify for blood donation but still need to lower their blood volume for medical reasons.
When your Hemoglobin and Hematocrit levels are elevated, it can result in thickened blood consistency, akin to trying to drink a milkshake through a narrow straw – a challenging task for your heart. In response, your heart might enlarge to compensate, potentially leading to serious issues such as strokes. Our experienced providers recommend a phlebotomy or “Blood Dump” procedure to encourage the production of new, thinner blood cells, promoting overall cardiovascular health.
How does a Blood Dump work?
Blood Dump is conducted in a controlled and relaxing environment at Ashley Bruno Aesthetics. Here’s how the process typically works:
- Consultation: You'll start with a consultation with our healthcare professionals to discuss your specific medical needs and reasons for blood volume reduction.
- Customized Plan: Based on your consultation and medical requirements, a customized plan for blood volume reduction will be created. This plan may include the target volume reduction and the number of sessions required.
- Procedure: During a Blood Dump session, a small amount of blood is gently withdrawn from your body using specialized medical equipment. The volume withdrawn is carefully controlled to achieve the desired reduction without causing harm or discomfort.
- Relaxation: You can relax in a comfortable and tranquil environment during the procedure. Our healthcare professionals prioritize your comfort and well-being throughout the process.
- Monitoring: Throughout the procedure, your vital signs and well-being will be closely monitored to ensure safety and effectiveness.
