At Innovate Aesthetics, we offer Microneedling combined with Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) for a powerful skin rejuvenation treatment that promotes collagen production, accelerates healing, and improves skin texture. This natural, minimally invasive therapy is ideal for patients looking to enhance their skin’s overall appearance with long-lasting, radiant results.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a cosmetic procedure that uses a device equipped with fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing process, leading to increased collagen and elastin production, which are essential for firm, youthful-looking skin.
What is PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin)?
PRF is an advanced form of platelet therapy, similar to PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), but it is 100% natural with no additives. PRF is created from your own blood and contains a higher concentration of white blood cells, stem cells, and growth factors than PRP. These components promote skin regeneration and accelerate healing, making PRF particularly effective when combined with microneedling. PRF gradually releases growth factors over time, ensuring longer-lasting and more potent results compared to PRP.
How Does Microneedling with PRF Work?
The treatment begins with a blood draw, similar to PRP therapy. Your blood is then processed in a special centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich fibrin from the rest of the blood.
During the microneedling procedure, tiny needles create micro-channels in the skin. The PRF is then applied to these micro-channels, allowing the growth factors and healing proteins to penetrate deeply into the skin. This combination stimulates collagen production, enhances skin repair, and delivers superior results compared to microneedling alone.
What Can Microneedling with PRF Treat?
Microneedling with PRF is an excellent treatment for addressing a wide range of skin concerns, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sun damage and hyperpigmentation
- Acne scars and other scars
- Uneven skin tone or texture
- Enlarged pores
- Skin laxity (loose or sagging skin)
This treatment can be performed on the face, neck, décolleté, and the hands.
What to Expect During Your Microneedling with PRF Treatment
Consultation: Your treatment begins with a detailed consultation where we assess your skin and discuss your aesthetic goals. This allows us to customise the treatment to your specific needs.
The Procedure:
- A small amount of blood is drawn from your arm and processed to extract the PRF.
- The microneedling device is then passed over your skin, creating micro-channels and then the PRF is applied to the treatment area.
- The procedure takes up to 90 minutes, depending on the area being treated. Most patients experience minimal discomfort, but a topical anesthetic can be applied if needed.
Aftercare: Following the procedure, your skin may appear slightly red, similar to a mild sunburn, and you may experience mild swelling or tightness for 1-3 days.
When Will I See Results?
You will begin to notice initial improvements in skin texture and radiance within 1-2 weeks. However, the most significant results develop over time as collagen production increases, with full results becoming apparent 3-6 months after treatment. For optimal results, we typically recommend a series of 3-5 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart, depending on your skin’s condition and goals.
How Long Do Results Last?
The results of microneedling with PRF can last up to 12-18 months, depending on your age, skin type, and lifestyle. Periodic maintenance treatments every 6-12 months can help prolong the effects and keep your skin looking its best.
Is Microneedling with PRF Safe?
Yes, microneedling with PRF is a safe and minimally invasive procedure with minimal downtime. Since PRF is created from your own blood, there is little to no risk of allergic reactions or complications. Mild side effects such as redness, swelling, or slight bruising are common but typically resolve within a few days.
Who is a Good Candidate for Microneedling with PRF?
Microneedling with PRF is suitable for individuals who:
- Want to improve the overall texture and tone of their skin
- Are experiencing early signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles
- Have acne scars or other types of skin damage
- Are looking for a natural, non-surgical way to rejuvenate the skin
