Microneedling PRP in Portland & Seattle Metro

Microneedling with PRP — sometimes called a “Vampire Facial®” — combines collagen induction therapy with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from your own blood.

Microneedling creates tiny, controlled micro-channels in the skin, triggering your body’s natural healing response and stimulating fresh collagen and elastin production. During your treatment, a small sample of your blood is drawn, spun in a centrifuge, and separated into layers. We collect the “liquid gold” layer — plasma rich in platelets, growth factors, cytokines, and supportive proteins — and apply it during and after microneedling.

This concentrated PRP supercharges your skin’s repair process, leading to smoother texture, better tone, improved firmness, and a more radiant glow than microneedling alone.

For many patients, yes — adding PRP significantly enhances the benefits of microneedling.

Compared to microneedling alone, microneedling with PRP often provides:

• faster healing and less redness
• stronger collagen stimulation
• more improvement in texture, tone, and firmness
• better results for fine lines, mild scarring, and overall glow
• fewer sessions needed to see meaningful change

If you’re already investing in microneedling and want the most regenerative, long-lasting results possible, PRP is typically the best-value upgrade.

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is a concentrated serum made from your own blood. It contains:

• platelets (your body’s natural repair cells)
• growth factors (proteins that stimulate collagen and tissue healing)
• cytokines (messenger molecules that guide the repair process)
• plasma nutrients (supportive proteins and amino acids)

During microneedling with PRP, this “liquid gold” is applied directly over the freshly created micro-channels in your skin. This allows the growth factors to penetrate deeply and amplify your skin’s natural repair response, leading to more dramatic, longer-lasting rejuvenation.

Most patients experience:

• mild to moderate redness for 24–48 hours (similar to a light sunburn)
• temporary warmth or tightness
• mild dryness or flakiness as the skin renews

Makeup can usually be worn the next day, as long as you follow the aftercare instructions we provide. While your skin may feel slightly textured during the early healing phase, it continues to improve over the next 1–3 weeks as new collagen forms.

PRP often helps reduce downtime and speeds up the visible recovery compared to microneedling alone.

Yes. Microneedling with PRP is considered one of the safest regenerative treatments for all skin types and skin tones, including sensitive or reactive skin.

Because microneedling doesn’t use heat or target pigment, it avoids many of the risks associated with lasers. We carefully adjust depth, speed, and product selection based on your skin type, sensitivity, and goals to ensure a safe, predictable outcome.

Many patients with well-controlled diabetes can safely receive microneedling with PRP, but it’s important to evaluate each person individually.

We consider:

• how well your blood sugar is controlled
• your history of wound healing
• any medications that affect clotting or immunity

Because PRP is made from your own blood, there is no added donor or synthetic material. However, diabetes can affect healing, so we’ll review your medical history, medications, and recent lab work before recommending treatment. In some cases, we may coordinate with your medical provider to ensure microneedling with PRP is appropriate and safe for you.

Some patients notice a healthier glow and smoother texture after just one session. For deeper concerns — such as scarring, more pronounced texture issues, or early signs of aging — we generally recommend a series of 3 to 6 treatments, spaced about 4–6 weeks apart.

This allows your skin time to rebuild collagen gradually and leads to more dramatic, longer-lasting improvement. During your consultation, we’ll recommend a personalized plan based on your skin condition and goals.

Microneedling with PRP produces results that begin developing within days and continue improving for several weeks as collagen rebuilds. Because PRP intensifies the skin’s repair response, many patients notice longer-lasting and more dramatic improvement compared to microneedling alone.

With a full treatment series and good skincare habits, results often last several months, sometimes longer. Many patients choose quarterly or biannual maintenance sessions to keep collagen levels strong and maintain smooth, radiant, youthful-looking skin year-round.

As with all regenerative treatments, consistency leads to the most transformative long-term results.

Microneedling with PRP takes collagen induction therapy to the next level by combining traditional microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) — a concentrated healing serum made from your own blood.

Microneedling creates tiny, controlled micro-channels that stimulate fresh collagen and elastin. When PRP is applied during and after treatment, its growth factors penetrate deeply into these channels, supercharging your skin’s repair process and amplifying your results.

With PRP added, microneedling helps:

• boost collagen production more powerfully
• accelerate healing and reduce redness
• improve firmness and elasticity
• smooth uneven texture
• brighten dull or tired-looking skin
• reduce fine lines with greater impact
• improve mild acne scarring
• enhance overall skin rejuvenation
• restore a more luminous, youthful glow

Microneedling with PRP is one of the most advanced non-surgical ways to rejuvenate your skin from within — delivering deeper, faster, and more noticeable improvement than microneedling alone.

Yes — microneedling with PRP is considered one of the most effective and safest rejuvenation treatments for facial skin. It combines collagen induction therapy with your body’s own platelet-rich plasma (PRP), making it both powerful and naturally biocompatible.

Microneedling with PRP is especially beneficial for:

• improving fine lines and early wrinkles
• smoothing uneven texture
• reducing the appearance of enlarged pores
• softening mild acne scarring
• evening out skin tone
• brightening dull or tired-looking skin
• restoring a firmer, more youthful glow

Because PRP amplifies your skin’s natural healing response, the results are often deeper, faster, and longer-lasting than microneedling alone — and the treatment remains gentle, safe, and effective for nearly all skin types.

Microneedling with PRP is very safe when performed by a trained professional, because it uses your own platelet-rich plasma and does not involve heat, lasers, or harsh chemicals. Most patients experience only mild, temporary effects, including:

• redness for 24–48 hours (similar to a light sunburn)
• mild warmth or sensitivity
• temporary tightness or dryness
• slight flaking as the skin renews

PRP often helps the skin recover more quickly than microneedling alone, but it can also create a gently “activated” feeling for a few hours after treatment due to increased growth factor activity.

Less commonly, if aftercare instructions aren’t followed, patients may experience mild irritation or delayed healing. At our clinic, we use medical-grade tools and provide clear, simple aftercare guidance to support smooth healing and minimize any risks.

Overall, microneedling with PRP is considered one of the safest, most natural ways to rejuvenate the skin.

Microneedling with PRP is safe and effective for adults of almost all ages, because it uses your own platelet-rich plasma and stimulates collagen naturally.

Most patients start in their:

• late 20s to early 30s to prevent early aging, refine texture, and maintain long-term skin health

• late 30s through 50s to address fine lines, uneven texture, sun damage, or early laxity with deeper regenerative support from PRP

Many patients in their 60s and 70s also see excellent results. PRP’s growth factors can stimulate collagen at virtually any age, making it an ideal option for mature skin that needs firmer structure, better elasticity, and a more radiant glow.

Microneedling with PRP is one of the most versatile regenerative treatments — the right age to start is simply when you want smoother, brighter, healthier skin.

Microneedling with PRP can be performed year-round, but many patients still prefer fall and winter because:

• there is less UV exposure

• skin tends to be drier and benefits more from deep rejuvenation

• the mild “post-treatment redness” is easier to manage when you’re indoors more often

PRP often helps the skin recover more quickly and can reduce the length of visible redness compared to microneedling alone — which makes it even more manageable in any season.

That said, with good sun protection (broad-spectrum SPF, hats, and avoiding intense midday sun), microneedling with PRP is safe and effective in every season, including spring and summer.

Yes — microneedling with PRP is excellent for mature or aging skin. In fact, older skin often responds especially well because PRP delivers concentrated growth factors that significantly boost collagen production and support healthier, firmer skin from within.

Patients with:

• thinning skin

• fine lines and deeper wrinkles

• crepey or fragile texture

• age-related dullness

• enlarged pores

• uneven tone

…frequently see meaningful improvement with a series of microneedling with PRP treatments. It’s one of the most effective, natural ways to restore firmness, smoothness, and radiance at any age, with minimal downtime and consistently beautiful, gradual results.

Most patients find microneedling with PRP very tolerable. Before your treatment, we apply a topical numbing cream to keep you comfortable.

Patients usually describe the sensation as:

• mild prickling
• vibration
• slight warmth

Areas with more padding (cheeks, forehead) tend to feel minimal, while thinner areas (around the nose or upper lip) may feel slightly more intense for a brief moment. Any warmth or tightness afterward typically feels like a mild sunburn and fades within a day or two.

With proper numbing, expert technique, and a calm, private environment, most people are pleasantly surprised by how comfortable the treatment feels.
