A Natural Way to Restore Glow, Texture,
and Youthful Skin
PRP Facial with Microneedling—often called the “Vampire Facial”—is one of the most advanced regenerative treatments available for improving skin quality, tone, texture, and overall rejuvenation without surgery or significant downtime. At YAKER Hair Restoration + Med Spa, we combine collagen-inducing microneedling with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) derived from your own blood to naturally stimulate healing and renewal from within.
Think of this treatment as activating your skin’s own repair system. Microneedling creates tiny, controlled microchannels in the skin, while PRP—rich in growth factors and healing proteins—is applied directly into those channels to accelerate collagen production, improve circulation, and support healthier, younger-looking skin.
The result is smoother texture, softer fine lines, improved acne scars, tighter-looking skin, smaller pores, and a brighter, healthier glow.
This treatment is ideal for patients concerned with:
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Dull or tired-looking skin
- Acne scars and uneven texture
- Enlarged pores
- Mild skin laxity
- Sun damage and pigmentation
- Under-eye crepiness
- Overall skin rejuvenation and collagen support
How It Works
Your blood contains platelets packed with natural growth factors that help heal tissue and stimulate collagen production. During treatment, a small sample of blood is drawn and processed to isolate concentrated PRP.
At the same time, microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny channels trigger your body’s natural healing response and allow the PRP to penetrate deeper into the skin where it can work more effectively.
Together, microneedling + PRP help:
- Stimulate new collagen and elastin
- Improve skin texture and firmness
- Enhance skin tone and radiance
- Reduce acne scars and fine lines
- Support healthier, more youthful skin over time
Unlike fillers or surgery, a PRP Facial with Microneedling improves the quality of your own skin naturally.
What to Expect
Your treatment is performed in the office and is generally very well tolerated.
- A topical numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable.
- A small blood sample is drawn from your arm.
- The blood is spun in a centrifuge to isolate concentrated PRP.
- Microneedling is performed to create precise microchannels in the skin.
- The PRP is applied during and after treatment to maximize absorption and healing.
Most treatments take approximately 45–60 minutes.
Recovery & Aftercare
One of the biggest advantages of PRP Facial with Microneedling is that recovery is relatively quick and straightforward. Most patients experience mild redness and sensitivity afterward, similar to a moderate sunburn, but can return to normal daily activities within 24–48 hours.
Immediately after treatment, your skin may feel warm, tight, dry, or slightly swollen. Some patients also notice mild pinpoint redness or temporary roughness as the skin begins its natural healing and renewal process. These reactions are normal and expected.
Typical Recovery Timeline:
- First 24 Hours: Redness, warmth, and mild sensitivity
- Days 2–3: Pinkness gradually fades; skin may feel dry or tight
- Days 3–5: Mild flaking or rough texture may occur as old skin sheds
- Within 1–2 Weeks: Skin often appears brighter, smoother, and more refreshed
Post-Treatment Instructions:
- Avoid direct sun exposure and excessive heat for 48 hours
- Wear sunscreen daily to protect healing skin
- Avoid harsh skincare products, exfoliants, retinoids, and acids for several days unless instructed otherwise
- Keep the skin hydrated with gentle, medical-grade skincare products
- Avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, hot tubs, and excessive sweating for 24 hours
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
The number of sessions depends on your skin concerns and goals.
- General skin rejuvenation and glow: 3 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart
- Acne scarring or deeper texture concerns: 4–6 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart
- Maintenance: 1–3 treatments yearly to maintain collagen production and long-term skin quality
Your provider will customize a treatment plan based on your skin type, age, lifestyle, and desired outcome.
How Long Do Results Last?
Most patients begin noticing improvements in skin glow, texture, and overall radiance within a couple of weeks, with continued collagen remodeling and skin improvement occurring over the following 2–6 months as your body naturally produces new collagen and elastin.
Because collagen naturally declines with age, periodic maintenance treatments are recommended to help keep your skin firm, smooth, youthful, and refreshed in the long term.
For the best and longest-lasting results, we strongly recommend pairing PRP Facial with Microneedling with high-quality, science-backed medical-grade skincare, such as ZO Skin Health. Professional skincare helps maintain collagen stimulation, improve skin cell turnover, protect against environmental damage, and enhance overall skin quality between treatments. Think of in-office procedures as the “reset,” while a consistent medical-grade skincare routine helps maintain and protect your investment at home every day.
Is PRP Facial with Microneedling Right for You?
If you are looking for a natural, minimally invasive treatment to improve skin quality, texture, fine lines, acne scars, or overall rejuvenation, PRP Facial with Microneedling is an excellent option for most healthy adults.
Because the PRP comes from your own body, the treatment is highly biocompatible and designed to enhance your skin naturally—not change the way you look.
The goal is simple: healthier skin, improved collagen, and a fresher, more youthful appearance that still looks completely like you.
