Facial scars
Natural care for smoother skin
Scars from acne, injury or surgery can leave you feeling self-conscious. Microneedling with PRF uses your body's own healing power to help improve the texture and look of your skin.
Made from you
Minimally invasive
Encourages collagen
Overview
When scars affect how you feel
Facial scars can be bothersome, especially when they sit on visible areas like your cheeks or forehead. They can change the balance of your face and affect how you feel about yourself.
Scars caused by acne, injury or surgery can be treated with cosmetic care. At Blossom, we use microneedling with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), a natural and minimally invasive option that works with your body's own healing.
Benefits
Why microneedling with PRF
01
Made from you
PRF comes from a small sample of your own blood, so the treatment uses no chemicals or additives.
02
Minimally invasive
Tiny, controlled punctures in the skin do the work, with no surgery involved.
03
Encourages collagen
The treatment stimulates collagen production and skin remodeling for a smoother texture.
04
Supports healing
Growth factors in PRF help your skin heal, improve its texture and look refreshed.

What to expect
How the treatment works
01
Preparing your PRF
We take a small sample of your blood and spin it in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelet-rich fibrin.
02
Microneedling
A microneedling device with fine needles makes tiny punctures in your skin, which prompts your body's natural repair process.
03
Applying PRF
The tiny channels are filled with PRF, whose growth factors support healing, smoother texture and skin renewal.
What affects your results
How well microneedling works depends on your skin type, how severe your scarring is and your overall health. Dr. Huda will look closely at your skin and talk you through realistic expectations.
For some scars, POTENZA RF microneedling may also be an option. It pairs microneedling with radiofrequency energy and can be used for acne scarring, and Dr. Huda will recommend the approach that suits your skin.
