Acne Scars
PRP microneedling for acne scars can help improve the look of uneven texture and post-acne indentations by supporting collagen remodeling and skin repair.
Regenerative skin renewal for smoother, healthier, glowing skin.
Monthly SpecialsPRP microneedling combines controlled microneedling with platelet-rich plasma to support collagen, texture, and skin renewal. At Zavant, this treatment is elevated by our proprietary PRP preparation method, designed to optimize PRP quality and enhance the regenerative benefits of treatment. Each session is customized to your skin concerns, helping improve texture, acne scars, fine lines, pores, and overall radiance over time.
Book a ConsultationDuration: PRP microneedling treatments typically take about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the treatment area, numbing time, and your customized plan.
During Treatment: Your provider will draw your blood and prepare your platelet-rich plasma before microneedling the skin to create controlled microchannels. The PRP is then applied to support the skin’s natural repair response. You may feel pressure, vibration, or mild scratching during treatment, but numbing cream is used to improve comfort.
Downtime: PRP microneedling recovery usually includes redness and sensitivity for the first 24 to 72 hours. Mild dryness, flaking, or tightness can also occur as the skin heals.
Longevity: Results can continue to improve over several weeks as collagen production and skin renewal develop. Many patients benefit from a series of treatments, followed by maintenance sessions based on their skin goals.
Results: PRP microneedling results develop gradually. Patients may notice improved glow and smoothness first, followed by continued improvement in texture, acne scars, fine lines, pores, and overall skin quality over time.
Aftercare: After your PRP microneedling treatment in West Hollywood or Burbank, you may be advised to avoid makeup, direct sun, sweating, heat, exfoliating products, retinoids, and active skincare ingredients for a short period of time. A comprehensive post-care guide will be provided to you.
CO2 laser resurfacing may be recommended at a different time for patients with deeper acne scars, more advanced texture, or more significant skin damage. For the right patient, combining PRP microneedling and CO2 resurfacing in different stages of a comprehensive treatment plan can help address acne scars and texture from different levels of the skin.
LEARN MORECoolPeel and PRP microneedling are not performed on the same day, but they can work beautifully together as part of a larger skin renewal plan. Together, they allow us to target similar concerns through different regenerative methods for more transformative results.
LEARN MOREBotox is typically performed at a different time from PRP microneedling, but it can be a strong complement for patients focused on fine lines and wrinkles. PRP microneedling helps improve skin quality, texture, and early surface lines, while Botox targets movement-related wrinkles in areas like the forehead, frown lines, and crow’s feet for a more comprehensive rejuvenation plan.
LEARN MOREPRP microneedling, also known as the vampire facial, combines controlled microneedling with platelet-rich plasma from your own blood. microneedling creates tiny channels in the skin that activate the body’s wound-healing response and help stimulate collagen and elastin. PRP contains concentrated platelets and growth factors that support tissue repair and cellular renewal. When PRP is applied over the microneedling channels, it can greatly enhance the benefits of microneedling by supporting the repair process and encouraging healthier-looking, more renewed skin.
Book a TreatmentYes, PRP microneedling for acne scars can be a strong option for rolling scars, boxcar scars, and uneven post-acne texture. microneedling helps stimulate collagen in the skin, while PRP supports the repair process. A series is usually recommended for more visible improvement.
The number of PRP microneedling treatments depends on your skin concerns and goals. Patients focused on glow or maintenance may need fewer sessions, while acne scars, rough texture, enlarged pores, fine lines, and deeper collagen remodeling usually benefit from a series.
Regular microneedling uses controlled microchannels to stimulate collagen and skin renewal. microneedling with PRP adds platelet-rich plasma, which contains concentrated platelets and growth factors that support tissue repair, recovery, and overall PRP skin rejuvenation.
Platelet-rich plasma microneedling may help improve the look of uneven tone, post-acne marks, and mild discoloration by supporting skin renewal. For more stubborn or developed sun spots or pigmentation, your provider may recommend a laser treatment, CoolPeel, or another pigment-focused plan for better results.
Yes, many patients notice a fresher glow, smoother feel, and healthier-looking skin after one PRP microneedling treatment. For deeper concerns like acne scars, rough texture, fine lines, large pores, or uneven tone, a series usually creates more meaningful PRP microneedling before and after results.
PRP microneedling is sometimes called a vampire facial because it uses platelet-rich plasma from your own blood during the treatment. After your blood is drawn and processed, the PRP is applied over the skin during microneedling to support repair, renewal, and a healthier-looking glow.
PRP microneedling can be a great option for patients who want to improve early fine lines, crepey texture, and overall skin quality without Botox or filler. It will not relax movement-related wrinkles the way Botox does, but it can support smoother, firmer, healthier-looking skin over time.
Most patients tolerate PRP microneedling well with numbing cream. You may feel pressure, vibration, or a scratching sensation during the treatment, especially in more sensitive areas, but discomfort is usually manageable.
Yes. PRP microneedling can be performed around the under-eye area when appropriate, and at Zavant, our providers are highly trained to treat this delicate area with precision. For patients with under-eye fine lines, crepey texture, or early skin thinning, PRP microneedling may help support collagen stimulation and smoother-looking skin. If your main concern is hollowness or deeper discoloration, your provider may recommend PRP injections or another Zavant under-eye treatment plan instead.
derma rolling is not the same as clinical PRP microneedling in our Los Angeles practices. Professional microneedling with PRP uses controlled depth, sterile technique, clinical-grade microneedling technology, and platelet-rich plasma prepared from your own blood. This allows for a safer, more targeted PRP facial designed to improve texture, acne scars, pores, fine lines, and overall skin quality.
PRP microneedling cost can vary based on your treatment area, skin concerns, degree of acne scarring or texture, and whether your provider recommends a single session or a series. Because platelet-rich plasma microneedling is customized to your skin, pricing is best determined after an in-person assessment.
During your consultation, your provider will evaluate your acne scars, pores, fine lines, skin texture, uneven tone, healing response, and desired result before reviewing your personalized treatment plan. Some patients choose PRP microneedling as a PRP facial for glow and skin maintenance, while others benefit from a series for more visible improvement in acne scars, rough texture, large pores, and overall skin rejuvenation.
