Microneedling with PRP combines collagen induction microneedling with platelet-rich plasma prepared from your own blood. The treatment is designed for patients who want gradual skin rejuvenation, smoother-looking texture, refined-looking pores, a healthier glow, and support for mild acne-scar texture or early fine lines.
At NPMD, this service lives under Treatments because it is more than a spa facial. The plan includes candidacy screening, skin assessment, sterile technique, blood-draw handling, recovery guidance, and realistic expectations about what PRP microneedling can and cannot change.
Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin surface. PRP is then used as part of the treatment plan to support the skin's natural repair environment. This combination is often chosen when the goal is better skin quality rather than volume replacement or a dramatic resurfacing recovery.
Standard microneedling focuses on collagen induction through controlled skin injury. PRP / PRF uses platelet-rich components prepared from your blood. Microneedling with PRP brings those two ideas together for patients who want a treatment that feels more regenerative and glow-focused.
It is still important to keep expectations grounded. PRP microneedling may be helpful for texture and radiance, but deeper acne scars, laxity, pigment problems, or heavy sun damage may need a staged plan with treatments such as Scarlet SRF, CO2 laser acne scar treatment, or chemical peels.
The consultation determines whether PRP microneedling is appropriate for your skin, medical history, and timeline. We review the skin barrier, acne activity, pigment risk, scar depth, blood-draw considerations, medications, current skincare, recent treatments, and your ability to follow downtime instructions.
On treatment day, the skin is cleansed and prepared. A small blood draw is used to prepare PRP. A topical numbing step may be used depending on the plan. The microneedling device is passed over selected areas at a depth chosen for your skin and goals, then PRP is applied as part of the treatment sequence.
After treatment, the skin may look red or flushed and feel warm, tight, dry, or sensitive. Mild pinpoint bleeding can occur during treatment. The early recovery phase is focused on calming the skin barrier, avoiding avoidable irritation, and protecting the treated skin while it heals.

Recovery is usually lighter than aggressive resurfacing, but the skin still needs careful aftercare. Redness, warmth, tightness, tenderness, dryness, light flaking, swelling, or bruising can happen. The skin may feel temporarily rough before it starts to look fresher.
Aftercare may include gentle cleansing, simple barrier-supporting products, avoiding retinoids and acids until cleared, avoiding picking or scrubbing, pausing heat and heavy exercise as directed, and using strict sun protection. We explain when makeup, active ingredients, exercise, and normal skincare can safely resume.
Some patients notice a fresher glow after early healing, but collagen-related changes build gradually over weeks and months. Texture, pores, and acne-scar surface changes usually require a series rather than one visit.
If your main concern is deeper acne scarring, significant laxity, or more dramatic resurfacing, we may compare PRP microneedling with microneedling facial, fractional CO2 laser resurfacing, Scarlet SRF, or a staged combination plan.

If you want smoother texture, softer-looking pores, and a healthier glow with a regenerative skin-quality plan, a consultation can clarify whether microneedling with PRP is the right fit for your skin.

A first Botox visit should not start with a syringe. It should start with a conversation about your facial movement, history, goals, and what a measured first dose should and should not try to do. Here is how to tell whether your consultation is doing that work.

Good candidates usually want gradual improvement in skin texture, visible pores, dullness, mild acne-scar texture, early fine lines, or overall glow, and they can follow aftercare. Consultation is important if you have active acne, eczema or psoriasis flares, frequent cold sores, a history of keloids, bleeding or platelet disorders, blood-thinning medication use, recent isotretinoin use, or upcoming sun-heavy travel.

NPMD; Amy, one of the smartest, kindest, compassionate and brilliant Nurse Practitioners. She offers expert medical care and medical advice in a way that you understand. When she examines you and reviews your medical issues, not one detail is missed. she explains treatment options for you in a manner that is precise, individualized and understandable. When she discusses your medical problems she is so kind, soft spoken, you can feel the discussion is coming from her heart, her deep understanding of medicine and human mankind. When you are with her YOU are not a patient with a chart number and a hurried 15 minute office visit. You are sitting with a person that makes you feel you count and that you are part of her medical family. I have been coming to NPMD since it's opening in Encino, Ca. The office is very clean and quite beautiful. George, RN is so nice and so smart as well. Amy's entire staff duplicate her and her vision for what 5 star medical care should be. By the way if you are thirsty the office has the best coffee, made just for you as well as a variety of cold healthy beverages to drink. The location is easy to get to and the parking is relatively inexpensive, compared to most LA parking. My husband comes here now and every time I get a chance I always recommend that my friends or just people I speak to come to NPMD. If you can just come and visit NPMD, I am well, thriving and very very happy with the care and attention I receive for this unbelievable practice. Thank You NPMD and Amy

5 Stars – A Total Game-Changer for My Health and Wellness NPMD Medical Clinic and MedSpa is a rare find—one that expertly combines outstanding medical care with luxurious wellness treatments. I initially booked an appointment for a routine check-up, but ended up discovering a complete wellness destination under one roof! The medical team was incredibly thorough, examining every detail of my health history and current concerns. They patiently answered all of my questions, empowering me to make informed decisions about my care. Afterward, I explored their medspa offerings, and the treatments were simply phenomenal. From revitalizing facials to relaxing massages, I felt like I was on a mini vacation that just happened to be in a state-of-the-art medical facility. I appreciate how NPMD’s staff genuinely cares about your well-being and customizes services to fit your unique goals. By the time I left, I was not only feeling healthier but also pampered and rejuvenated. If you’re looking for a place that prioritizes both your inner and outer well-being, you’ll find it here—NPMD is 100% deserving of a five-star review!
