• Microneedling is a skin rejuvenation procedure that involves creating tiny microchannels in the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production.

Microneedling combined with PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that enhances collagen production, accelerates healing, and improves skin texture. This procedure involves two key components:

1. Microneedling Process

• A device with ultra-fine needles creates microchannels in the skin.
• These controlled micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production.
• Helps improve skin texture, fine lines, acne scars, and overall skin tone.

2. PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin)

• PRF is a natural serum derived from the patient’s own blood.
• Blood is drawn, then spun in a centrifuge at a low speed, preserving growth factors, white blood cells, and stem cells.
• PRF contains a higher concentration of platelets and releases growth factors more slowly than PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), extending the skin’s healing and regenerative benefits.

How Microneedling + PRF Works Together

• The microchannels created by microneedling allow PRF to penetrate deeper into the skin.
• Growth factors in PRF enhance cell regeneration, improve hydration, and promote faster healing.
• Results include firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.

Benefits of Microneedling with PRF

• Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
• Improves skin elasticity and firmness
• Fades acne scars and pigmentation
• Minimizes pore size
• Enhances skin tone and texture
• Uses 100% natural healing properties from your own body, reducing the risk of allergic reactions

This treatment is ideal for those looking for a natural, effective way to rejuvenate their skin with long-lasting results.

• It helps improve acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, large pores, hyperpigmentation, and overall skin texture.

• Most clients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure, as a numbing cream is applied beforehand.

• A session typically lasts 30–60 minutes, depending on the treatment area.

• Most clients see noticeable improvements after 3–4 sessions spaced about 4–6 weeks apart.
• We also recommend a package of alternating microneedling and laser skin treatments with our non-ablative laser.

Avoid sun exposure, makeup, and harsh skincare products for at least 24–48 hours post-treatment to ensure optimal healing.
