PRP with microneedling — your own growth factors for renewed, glowing skin.
Want a natural boost to your skin’s tone, texture, and scars?
Do you have aged, dull skin that you’d love to bring back to life? If so, PRP with microneedling may be the perfect treatment for you. It uses your own platelet-rich plasma to minimize signs of aging and rejuvenate your face, neck, chest, and/or hands. PRP can also be used to restore your hair if you’re facing premature hair loss or thinning hair.
During a PRP with microneedling treatment, one of our expert providers at ZENA Medical will use a special device with tiny needles to penetrate the surface of your skin at various depths. The goal of the device will be to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, which can both help you achieve younger-looking skin.
Then, we’ll take a sample of your blood and place it into a centrifuge to separate your rich plasma from the red and white blood cells. Lastly, we’ll spread the plasma over your face.
When a microneedling treatment is performed on its own, it can shrink large pores and minimize fine lines and wrinkles. By pairing it with PRP, you can expedite the healing process and reduce the duration of swelling and redness, two of the most common side effects of microneedling.

A typical PRP with microneedling treatment can take anywhere between 30 and 45 minutes.

Since PRP with microneedling does not come with any downtime, you are free to resume work and your daily activities right away.
This treatment combines microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) — growth factors concentrated from a small sample of your own blood. As microneedling creates micro-channels, PRP is applied so those healing growth factors penetrate deeper, amplifying collagen production and skin renewal.
Often called the “vampire facial,” PRP microneedling improves skin tone and texture, softens fine lines and acne scars, and adds a healthy glow. Because it uses your own biology, it’s a natural approach with minimal risk of reaction.
A series of sessions gives the best results, with a day or two of mild redness afterward. At ZENA Medical in Newport Beach, PRP treatments are performed under the direction of board-certified dermatologist Dr. Zena Gabriel. Schedule a consultation to see if PRP microneedling is right for you.
