What is platelet-rich fibrin (PRF)?

Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a treatment that uses your body’s natural healing growth factors to rejuvenate skin and speed up recovery. A simple blood draw collects concentrated growth factors, which are then applied to enhance facial aesthetics. This technique leverages your own body’s resources for improved results.

What is microneedling with PRF?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure in which a doctor creates tiny, controlled injuries in the skin using fine needles. These micro-injuries boost collagen and elastin production, stimulating the body’s natural healing process. The procedure encourages healthier, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin with minimal downtime.

Combining microneedling and PRF therapy creates the “gold standard” treatment for skin transformation. This treatment combines the skin-rejuvenating benefits of microneedling with the healing power of your blood. After microneedling, the dentist applies the PRF concentrate to the skin. This rich concentration of growth factors accelerates healing, enhances collagen production, and improves skin texture. This combination is a powerful, natural solution for skin rejuvenation.

What can I expect from treatment?

The procedure is painless because we apply a topical numbing cream beforehand. It takes about 30-60 minutes. Some redness and swelling are typical, but there’s minimal downtime. For optimal results, we recommend 3-4 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Results improve gradually over several weeks as collagen production increases.

The doctor will recommend a good skincare routine to optimize your results. Avoid sun exposure, use a gentle cleanser, and apply a hydrating moisturizer. A soothing serum, like hyaluronic acid, can help. For the first few days, avoid makeup, exfoliating products, and active ingredients like retinol or Vitamin C. Be sure to apply sunscreen daily to protect your newly treated skin from UV damage.

Who is a candidate for facial esthetics?

Everyone desires smooth, youthful skin, but our skin naturally loses its elasticity and vibrancy as we age. Factors like sun exposure, lifestyle, and genetics contribute to fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven texture. Fortunately, advanced treatments such as microneedling with PRF can help restore that youthful glow.

Here are the skin flaws we can address with facial esthetics with PRF.

  • Age or sun spots
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Sagging skin
  • Acne scars
  • Pigmentation issues
  • Nasolabial folds
