At West Asheville Aesthetics & Wellness, we offer Microneedling with PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin), a cutting-edge skin rejuvenation treatment that combines the collagen-boosting power of microneedling with the natural healing properties of your body’s own growth factors. This advanced treatment is ideal for anyone looking to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and achieve a radiant, youthful complexion without the use of synthetic products.
What is Microneedling with PRF?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that uses tiny, sterile needles to create micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural wound-healing process, promoting collagen and elastin production, which helps to improve the overall texture and tone of the skin. When combined with PRF, the results are even more impressive.
PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is derived from your own blood. During the procedure, a small amount of blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelets, growth factors, and fibrin. This powerful serum is rich in healing properties, which are then applied to the skin during microneedling to accelerate healing, improve results, and enhance skin rejuvenation.
How Does Microneedling with PRF Work?
- Consultation: During your consultation, we’ll assess your skin’s needs and discuss your aesthetic goals to ensure that microneedling with PRF is the right treatment for you.
- Blood Draw: On the day of your treatment, we will draw a small sample of your blood, which is then processed to extract the PRF. This PRF contains concentrated growth factors that help stimulate your skin’s natural healing process.
- Microneedling Procedure: Using a microneedling device, tiny needles create controlled micro-injuries on the surface of your skin. These micro-injuries stimulate collagen and elastin production, which are key to improving skin texture, firmness, and overall radiance.
- PRF Application: Immediately after microneedling, the PRF serum is applied to the treated areas. The micro-channels created by microneedling allow the PRF to deeply penetrate the skin, delivering growth factors directly to the areas that need it most.
- Healing and Rejuvenation: Over the next several days and weeks, your skin will heal and regenerate, revealing smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin.
Benefits of Microneedling with PRF
- Natural Skin Rejuvenation: PRF is derived from your own blood, meaning there are no synthetic additives or risk of allergic reactions. It’s a completely natural way to enhance your skin’s healing and rejuvenation processes.
- Boosts Collagen Production: Microneedling stimulates collagen and elastin, helping to improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and firm the skin.
- Reduces Scars and Hyperpigmentation: This treatment is highly effective for reducing acne scars, surgical scars, and hyperpigmentation, leaving you with a more even skin tone.
- Minimizes Pores: Microneedling with PRF can help reduce the size of enlarged pores, giving your skin a smoother appearance.
- Improves Skin Texture and Radiance: The combined action of microneedling and PRF creates a radiant, glowing complexion with improved texture, softness, and vitality.
- Safe for All Skin Types: Unlike some laser treatments, microneedling with PRF is safe for all skin tones and types, making it an excellent option for a wide range of patients.
What Skin Concerns Can Microneedling with PRF Address?
Microneedling with PRF is a versatile treatment that can address a variety of skin concerns, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars and other types of scarring
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Sun damage and hyperpigmentation
- Large pores
- Dull, tired-looking skin
- Loss of skin firmness and elasticity
What to Expect During and After Treatment?
Microneedling with PRF is a comfortable, in-office procedure that typically takes about 60 minutes. A topical numbing cream is applied before the treatment to minimize any discomfort.
Recovery: After your treatment, you may experience some redness, swelling, or mild sensitivity, similar to a mild sunburn. This typically subsides within 24-48 hours, and most patients can return to their regular activities the next day. Over the following weeks, your skin will continue to improve as collagen production increases and the PRF works its magic.
Results: You can expect to see an improvement in skin texture, tone, and radiance within a few weeks of your treatment, with full results appearing after several months. For optimal results, we typically recommend a series of 3-4 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
