PRP and Microneedling: The Perfect Rejuvenation Combination

Healthy, glowing skin is one of the most powerful features of a youthful appearance. Over time, age, sun exposure, and stress can leave skin dull, uneven, or marked by fine lines and scars. At Creative Facial Aesthetics in NYC, we offer one of today’s most effective, non-surgical treatments: the combination of PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and microneedling.

Together, these treatments create a powerful synergy—stimulating collagen production, improving skin texture, and delivering a natural, refreshed look without the downtime of surgery.

The Science Behind PRP and Microneedling

Microneedling works by creating thousands of controlled micro-injuries in the skin using very fine needles. These tiny channels trigger the body’s natural healing response, leading to the production of new collagen and elastin—proteins responsible for firm, smooth, and youthful skin.

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) uses the healing power of your own blood. A small sample is drawn, spun in a centrifuge, and separated to extract plasma rich in growth factors. When applied to skin after microneedling, PRP accelerates repair and maximizes results.

The outcome? Smoother texture, improved tone, and a youthful glow that looks completely natural.

Benefits of the PRP and Microneedling Combination

When combined, microneedling and PRP offer benefits beyond either treatment alone:

• Collagen stimulation: Boosts firmness and elasticity.
• Reduced fine lines: Softens wrinkles around the eyes and mouth.
• Improved texture: Smooths acne scars and rough patches.
• Even tone: Diminishes hyperpigmentation and sun damage.
• Faster recovery: PRP shortens downtime by accelerating healing.
• Natural results: Uses your body’s own growth factors, not chemicals.

Studies support the effectiveness of this pairing. According to the Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery, microneedling with PRP shows superior improvement in acne scarring compared to microneedling alone.

What to Expect During Treatment

At Creative Facial Aesthetics, your comfort is our priority. After cleansing and numbing the skin, our providers use a professional microneedling device to create microchannels. Immediately afterward, your PRP is applied, allowing the plasma to penetrate deeply.

The treatment typically lasts 45–60 minutes, with minimal downtime. Most patients experience temporary redness, similar to a mild sunburn, that fades within a day or two. Over the following weeks, the skin naturally renews, revealing a brighter and firmer complexion.

How Many Sessions Are Needed?

While some improvement is noticeable after one session, a series of treatments yields the best results. Most patients benefit from three to four sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments every 6–12 months can help preserve results long-term.

Why Patients in NYC Love PRP with Microneedling

New Yorkers live busy, high-paced lives, making low-downtime treatments especially appealing. PRP with microneedling offers noticeable improvements without interrupting work, social events, or travel.

The natural approach also resonates with patients seeking rejuvenation without fillers or surgery. Instead of altering facial features, PRP and microneedling enhance the skin’s own ability to regenerate and heal.

Experience You Can Trust

Creative Facial Aesthetics is home to a unique collaboration between Dr. Maurice Khosh, a dual board-certified facial plastic surgeon, and Michele Rivard, a plastic surgery physician assistant. Together, they bring decades of expertise and artistry to every treatment.

This partnership provides patients with a comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation, blending surgical precision with advanced non-surgical techniques. Their shared mission: helping patients look refreshed, natural, and confident at every age.

Is PRP with Microneedling Right for You?

This treatment is safe for most skin types and tones. It is especially effective if you want to:

• Minimize fine lines and wrinkles
• Improve acne scars or surgical scars
• Brighten dull or uneven skin
• Reduce pigmentation from sun damage
• Tighten and firm mild skin laxity

During your consultation, our team will design a customized plan to meet your unique skin concerns and goals. Patients often notice a healthy glow within one to two weeks of treatment. Over the next several weeks, collagen production continues, leading to firmer, smoother, and more radiant skin. Clinical studies show significant improvement in skin quality after just a few sessions.
