Microneedling & PRF in Mount Pleasant, SC
Microneedling & PRF Treatment
Microneedling & PRF is a cosmetic treatment that combines the precision of the FDA-cleared SkinPen with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) to enhance skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. The SkinPen, known for its safety and effectiveness, creates controlled, tiny injuries in the skin, which stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. PRF, derived from the patient’s blood, is rich in growth factors that enhance healing. When applied during microneedling, PRF penetrates the skin more effectively with the help of SkinPen, promoting cell regeneration and boosting the skin’s natural repair mechanisms. This treatment is particularly adept at addressing fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven skin tone on the face, neck, and décolletage. Each session with Microneedling & PRF, using SkinPen, typically lasts about 60 to 90 minutes, including the time needed to prepare and apply the PRF. Mild side effects such as redness and swelling may occur but generally subside within a week.
Microneedling & PRF in Mount Pleasant, SC, offers a superior skin rejuvenation solution for individuals seeking a natural approach to enhancing their skin health.
