Microneedling
WHAT IS MIRCONEEDLING WITH PRF?
Microneedling uses tiny needles to boost collagen and elastin, improving skin structure and elasticity as new cells replace damaged ones. PRF (platelet-rich fibrin), derived from your blood, rejuvenates skin, especially under the eyes, and enhances microneedling’s effects. This quick, low-pain, non-invasive treatment promotes repair with minimal downtime.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PRF VS PRP?
PRF, unlike PRP, uses newer technology to create longer-lasting effects. The centrifuge creates a fibrin-rich plasma that releases growth factors slowly, boosting collagen and elastin. These growth factors work for up to a week, unlike PRP's which last only hours.
IS THERE ANY DOWNTIME?
Most can resume normal activities immediately after microneedling with PRF. Mild redness, like a sunburn, fades within a day or two, and makeup can be applied after 24 hours.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Arrive makeup-free on treatment day. After applying a numbing agent, your blood is drawn to extract PRF, which is applied during microneedling to stimulate healing.
HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
We recommend a series of 3 treatments for facial rejuvenation spaced 1 month apart. If for acne scars, we recommend 5 treatments. Maintenance is done every 6-12 months.
WHEN WILL I SEE RESULTS?
Most patients will see signs of improvement after 1 week. Since it takes collagen 4-6 weeks to form, many patients will notice a more dramatic result at that point.
