Microneedling in Clovis | Aesthera MedSpa

Rejuvenate Your Skin with Platelet Derived Growth Factors

If you’ve noticed fine lines, acne scarring, or textural changes microneedling offers a powerful way to restore your skin’s natural vitality. This treatment works by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin, signaling your body to increase collagen production and support renewal from within.

When paired with FDA approved PDGF+ (platelet derived growth factors), the dermal and epidermal repair is enhanced—helping to improve tone, texture, and overall skin quality more effectively

At Aesthera in Clovis, our skincare specialists take a thoughtful, results-driven approach to microneedling with PDGF+, focusing on treatments that support long-term skin health and a naturally refreshed appearance.

What Is the SkinPen®?

SkinPen® is an FDA-cleared microneedling device that creates precise, controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This process activates your body’s natural healing response, encouraging collagen production and improving overall skin quality.

When combined with PDGF+ (Platelet Derived Growth Factor), the treatment is further enhanced. PDGF+ is a sterile pharmaceutical grade product and is applied throughout the microneedling process to support faster recovery and amplify results. With more than 300,000 times the growth factors found in traditional PRP and PRF (platelet rich plasma and platelet rich fibrin) PDGF+ is the obvious choice for tissue repair. The growth factors in PDGF+ help stimulate faster and more efficient skin renewal, leading to smoother, stronger, and more revitalized skin over time.

Benefits of Microneedling with PDGF+

Boosts Collagen Production: Encourages your skin’s natural collagen response, helping improve firmness and elasticity over time.
Softens Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Reduces the visibility of lines for a smoother, more refreshed appearance.
Refines Tone and Texture: Helps even out skin tone while improving the look of scars, discoloration, and enlarged pores.
Supports Faster Recovery: PDGF+ enhances the skin’s healing process, resulting in more efficient, noticeable results.
Minimally Invasive: Delivers meaningful improvement without the need for surgery or extended downtime.
Suitable for Most Skin Types: A versatile treatment option that can be safely performed across a wide range of skin tones and concerns.

What Can I Expect During and Aftera Microneedling with PDGF Session?

Your treatment begins with a small blood draw, which is processed to isolate PRP (platelet-rich plasma). This nutrient-rich component is then used to support your skin’s natural repair and renewal process.

Before microneedling, a topical numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable. As the SkinPen® creates controlled micro-channels in the skin, PRP is applied and absorbed, helping to enhance collagen production and improve overall skin quality. A final layer is applied at the end of the treatment to support recovery further.

After your session, calming products are applied to soothe the skin. Most patients resume normal activities the same day or shortly after, with only minimal downtime. It’s important to avoid touching the treated area for several hours and to limit sun exposure and strenuous activity for the next few days.

You may experience mild redness or sensitivity for one to three days. As your skin heals, collagen production increases, with gradual improvements in tone, texture, and firmness becoming more noticeable over the following weeks.

Am I a Good Candidate for SkinPen® Microneedling with PRP?

SkinPen® microneedling with PRP is suitable for a wide range of skin types and can help improve concerns such as uneven tone, fine lines, and overall skin quality.

However, this treatment may not be recommended if you:

Are pregnant
Have active skin conditions such as rosacea, eczema, or ongoing breakouts
Experience delayed or impaired wound healing
Have used Accutane or undergone radiation treatments within the past 12 months

During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your skin and medical history to determine whether this treatment is appropriate for you.
