Fine lines, acne scars, uneven texture, and changes in skin quality can be difficult to address with skin care alone. At CARE Esthetics Peoria, microneedling with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) combines controlled microneedling with PRF prepared from a small sample of your own blood to support the skin’s natural repair and collagen-building response.

During treatment, microneedling creates tiny controlled channels in the skin. PRF is then used in conjunction with the microneedling treatment, allowing your own platelets and naturally occurring growth factors to be incorporated into the procedure.

Microneedling with PRF may help improve the appearance of:

• Fine lines and early signs of aging
• Acne scars
• Uneven skin texture
• Enlarged pores
• Skin tone and overall radiance
• Mild skin laxity

What’s Included

Choose from either:

• One full-face microneedling treatment with PRF
• Three full-face microneedling treatments with PRF

Each treatment includes:

• Full-face microneedling
• Blood draw and preparation of PRF
• PRF used in conjunction with the microneedling procedure
• Individualized skin assessment
• Post-treatment care instructions

Injectable or subdermal PRF is not included in either option. PRF injections beneath the skin, including treatment of areas such as the under-eyes, cheeks, temples, or other targeted areas, are separate procedures and may be added for an additional charge when clinically appropriate.

Scheduling

The contact phone number to book the appointment is 623-583-3961. Appointment availability is limited and subject to scheduling. Other appointment days may be available at regular CARE Esthetics pricing.

What to Expect

Treatment begins with an individualized assessment to determine candidacy and tailor the treatment to your skin, concerns, and goals.

Most patients experience temporary redness, sensitivity, or a sunburn-like appearance after treatment, typically improving over the following several days. Results develop gradually as the skin’s natural remodeling process occurs.

While many patients notice improvement after a single treatment, a series of treatments may be recommended depending on skin concerns and individual goals.

Before Your Treatment

Microneedling may not be appropriate for everyone. Treatment is not performed over active acne, open wounds, sores, or irritated skin, and may not be appropriate for patients with bleeding disorders, certain medications or medical conditions, or during pregnancy or nursing. Patients currently using or who have recently used isotretinoin (Accutane) should disclose this during consultation so appropriate timing can be determined.

After treatment, avoid retinol, exfoliating acids, and excessive sun exposure for at least 24–48 hours or as directed by your provider. Use gentle skin care and broad-spectrum SPF during recovery.

Individual results vary.
