Microneedling (with PRF)
What is microneedling?
Collagen induction therapy has been well-researched and well-documented as a safe and effective treatment in anti-aging, skin resurfacing, and acne scarring. Microneedling uses tiny needles to create numerous small microchannels through the skin in a highly-controlled manner. This stimulates the body to produce new collagen and elastin and remodel the treatment area, improving both skin texture and firmness as well as reducing scars and appearance of pore size. Additionally, these microchannels allow large molecules in topical skin products that normally cannot penetrate the skin to pass through the microchannels and help achieve better efficacy of these products.
What are the benefits of PRF?
For optimal results, microneedling is often paired with one's own PRF (platelet rich fibrin). PRF is the newest innovation in blood platelet therapy and is the newer method, compared to PRP, of using our body's own product to help enhance healing. It contains a concentrate of platelets, growth factors, fibrin, white blood cells, which are great for anti-inflammatory response, and mesenchymal stem cells. A sample of your blood is collected then spun down with precision to separate the PRF from cells that we do not want. It is then applied onto the treated areas during the microneedling procedure. PRF is 100% natural with no additives used in the collection of the product.
PRF hair
PRF can also help stimulate hair follicles and help with hair restoration. Injected into the scalp with minimal to no discomfort, PRF aids in the growth of hair by reviving weakened or miniaturized hair follicles into ones that can produce hair as well as strengthening existing hair. PRF can be a great alternative and effective therapy for early hair loss.

Depth of treatment varies for different skin conditions and treatment goals.
How many sessions will I need to see results?
Microneedling is used to treat various conditions and beautify the skin. Each client’s skin, conditions, severity, relative health, and lifestyle are different. For example, the protocol for scars is different than the protocol for age management. Generally speaking, our clients report seeing results after the first session, with many treatment plans consisting of 3-4 treatments spaced out 4 weeks apart and 1-2 maintenance treatments per year thereafter. Results may vary from person to person.
