Transform Your Skin with Sheer Aesthetics: Arlene Padilla RN Medical Spa

  Micro-needling with radiofrequency is a minimally invasive treatment to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scarring, and sagging skin. The addition of radiofrequency energy to the micro-needling procedure helps to further stimulate the body's natural collagen and healing processes revealing firmer, rejuvenated skin.  Micro-needling can help treat the appearance of fine lines, acne scars and the skin’s overall appearance. During this procedure, the micro-needling device is used to create controlled micro-injuries to the skin in order to produce collagen and elastin, leaving the skin smooth and glowing.

Entry level micro-needling procedure that combines the benefits of traditional micro-needling with the hydration and rejuvenation properties of hyaluronic acid. It can plump areas with sagging skin and repair minor skin irregularities that may contribute to an older-looking appearance. 

 Microneedling with PRF is a cosmetic procedure that involves using injection or device with needles to prick the skin and stimulate new collagen production. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), as an injection or topically, can be added to the session. It may improve the healing and decrease the duration of redness and swelling seen after micro needling.  helps to further stimulate the body's natural collagen and healing processes revealing firmer, rejuvenated skin.  Micro-needling can help treat the appearance of fine lines, acne scars and the skin’s overall appearance. 

PRF can be used as a liquid or formed into a gel for more of a volumizing effect.

 What is the difference between PRF and PRP??

 Both PRP and PRF contain platelets and growth factors; the differences lie in the concentration of the platelets and how quickly those growth factors are released. "PRF contains a 10 times concentration of platelets, whereas PRP contains two to five times," explains Dr. Halim. In other words, PRF has more of the "good" stuff. With PRP, the growth factors are released rapidly after activation (aka when the bovine thrombin or calcium chloride and anticoagulant are added), but with PRF, the fibrin matrix traps the growth factors and slowly releases them over time, says Dr. Chang. Translation: The post-treatment results show up slower, but can last up to a year.
