Skip to content Microneedling – PRP/PRF
Microneedling is a treatment that rejuvenates the skin by stimulating its natural repair processes through minimally invasive treatments. The treatment promotes collagen and elastin production by creating controlled micro-injuries, helping improve skin texture and tone. At Thrive! MedAesthetics + Wellness, we specialize in delivering personalized microneedling treatments tailored to meet your unique skincare needs.
We offer effective and comfortable treatments in a modern facility equipped with advanced technology. Combining years of experience with a client-centered philosophy, our team of skincare experts is here to meet your skincare needs.
As part of microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, tiny needles create micro-injuries in the skin. As a result of this process, your body’s natural healing process is stimulated, increasing the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins that are crucial to youthful, smooth, and firm skin. When combined with PRP/PRF, the treatment becomes even more powerful.
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) are derived from your blood and processed to concentrate the healing growth factors. When applied to the skin after microneedling, these growth factors accelerate the rejuvenation process, enhance tissue repair, and promote long-lasting results. Here are the benefits of Microneedling and PRP/PRF Skin Rejuvenation:
One of the key advantages of this treatment is its versatility and ability to enhance other aesthetic procedures. Microneedling with PRP/PRF can complement and amplify the effects of:
Patients interested in micro needling with PRP/PRF could also consider a customized secretome. This alternative is one of the newest regenerative medicine techniques that can significantly enhance results. Derived from your own stem cells, often extracted from hair follicles, the secretome amplifies regenerative signals, providing a concentrated boost of molecules needed for skin revitalization. This combined approach leads to enhanced vascular supply with promotion of healthy hair growth in the scalp. And, in the skin, secretomes, promote collagen remodeling, accelerated healing, and a more youthful complexion.
Microneedling, a minimally invasive technique, creates controlled micro-injuries on the skin’s surface with tiny needles. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing mechanisms, increasing collagen and elastin production. The treatment becomes even more powerful when combined with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or PRF (platelet-rich fibrin). PRP/PRF is derived from your blood, processed, and then applied to the skin or scalp to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and encourage hair regrowth.
The treatment is unique in combining the skin’s physical stimulation with the rejuvenating powers of platelet-rich plasma. This cutting-edge approach promotes aesthetic enhancement and wellness improvement, making it an excellent choice for those seeking long-term solutions to common concerns like hair thinning or skin aging. Here are the benefits of Microneedling and PRP/PRF Hair Rejuvenation:
Microneedling with PRP involves combining the traditional microneedling procedure with the application of platelet-rich plasma. The process begins with collecting a small sample of the patient’s blood, then processed in a centrifuge to isolate the plasma rich in platelets. Growth factors in this plasma promote cell repair and healing. After microneedling, the concentrated PRP is applied to the skin, enhancing the natural healing processes and improving the skin’s overall texture, tone, and appearance. This treatment effectively reduces wrinkles and scars and improves skin elasticity.
Microneedling with PRF is similar to microneedling with PRP but uses a next-generation blood derivative known as platelet-rich fibrin. PRF is obtained by spinning the patient’s blood at a lower speed, resulting in a fibrin matrix rich in platelets, white blood cells, and stem cells. This matrix has a higher concentration of growth factors compared to PRP. When applied to the skin after microneedling, PRF releases these growth factors over a more extended period, which enhances the skin’s healing and regeneration process. Microneedling with PRF is highly effective in improving skin texture, firmness, hydration, and promoting hair growth when applied to the scalp.
Microneedling Treatment is generally safe, but some common concerns include redness, swelling, and minor irritation immediately after the procedure. More serious risks, though less common, can include infection, prolonged redness, and hyperpigmentation, especially in those with darker skin tones. Most clients experience mild redness and swelling that subsides within 24-48 hours. With little down time after treatment, you’ll be able to resume your normal activities the next day. Our expert team will ensure to minimize these risks by using the latest techniques and providing thorough aftercare instructions, so you can achieve the best possible results safely.
The number of sessions required depends on your specific skin concerns and goals. While some clients notice improvements after a single session, 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart are often recommended for optimal results.
