The PRF facial combines the skin-rejuvenating effects of a Microneedling treatment with the additional effects of your own healthy plasma. Microneedling creates micro-channels for the passage of entry for the PRF into the epidermal and dermal layers of your skin. The process boosts collagen production and elastin in your skin, resulting in skin-tightening, smoothing, and an improvement in your skin’s overall tone and texture.
The PRF Facial can help smooth unwanted lines and wrinkles. Microneedling in conjunction with the PRF can also help reduce acne scarring by providing skinregeneration and renewal. Uneven skin tone and texture will be improved due to new collagen growth and powerful skin healingfactors from your own blood! Overall, you will be left with more even-toned and smooth-looking skin.
The number of PRF facials you will need is different for everyone. It is dependent on the health and quality of your skin, your personal skin concerns, and your skin goals. You may see an improvement in your skin’s tone and texture after just a few monthly facials, however, it usually takes a series of about 6 facials every 4-6 weeks to see the largest improvement in your skin’s overall appearance. After your initial series of facials, you can have maintenance PRF facials every few months. We are always doing damage to our skin, whether it is through UV exposure or over-exfoliation. This is why maintenance PRF facials are necessary to keep your skin looking the best it possibly can.
Microneedling with PRF decreases the recovery time to about 48-72 hours. This is because PRF essentially is healing the micro-injuries that are created by the microneedling pen. You should wash your face with lukewarm water and a gentle cleanser the night of your facial. Apply the recommended serum and/or moisturizer immediately after washing your face. Apply that same serum/moisturizer twice a day for 3-5 days. Avoid sun exposure or sunscreen until the following day and continue to limit sun exposure as much as possible for 3-5 days after the facial. Also, do not use skin care products that have active ingredients and exfoliants for the next week. These include things like AHA’s, BHA’s, retinol, alcohol, and Vitamin-C. Skincare products with fragrance and/ or colorings. Your skin may have a slight sunburned appearance for a few days following the facial. Avoid ice, Arnica gel, or anti-inflammatory medications for 3-5 days. These can interfere with your skin’s natural inflammatory process that’s necessary for your skin’s rejuvenation.

Rich Fibrin (PRF) is more powerful than Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). PRF provides platelets, just like PRP, but also delivers growth factors, stem cells, and white blood cells, for example, leukocytes. Furthermore, the platelet-rich fibrin matrix serves as scaffolding to keep the growth factors and stem cells localized in the area being treated. The bottom line is that PRF contributes more elements to further facial skin rejuvenation than PRP.
PRF facial skin rejuvenation helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles, helps tighten skin and improve tone, reduces pores, minimizes scars, and assists with discoloration. It’s an effective treatment for a large variety of skin conditions, regardless of skin type because it activates and aids the body’s natural healing process.
You’ll see results a few weeks after your first PRF facial treatment and will keep improving for a few months. However, there are various factors that can influence the results and the number of treatments required. These include the patient’s degree of skin damage, age, health, etc. During the consultation, we’ll assess your skin and medical history. We’ll also discuss your desired outcome and develop an ideal treatment plan to help you achieve your goals.
Patients do report discomfort at the treatment sites. There is usually some soreness after the procedure but this is usually short-lived. The PRF facial is less painful than other treatments like skin resurfacing. During your treatment, you’ll be provided with a topical numbing agent to make the experience more comfortable. Patients unanimously agree that the spectacular rejuvenation results more than make up for the minor discomfort they experience during the procedure.
