Plasma facials: your body's own healing power, applied to your skin.
At The Smile Bar, led by Dr. Arielle Forbes, DMD, PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) facials rejuvenate your skin using your body's own natural healing properties — growth factors that enhance collagen production, boost hydration, and promote a youthful, radiant complexion.
What PRF facials can treat
If you're looking to rejuvenate your skin, soften signs of aging, or improve overall texture, a PRF facial may be the right fit. It is an excellent option for:
Fine lines & wrinkles
Growth factors stimulate collagen to soften lines and support firmer skin.
Acne scars & uneven tone
Promotes regeneration that improves scarring and evens out skin tone.
Volume & elasticity
Helps restore volume loss and skin elasticity for a fuller, lifted look.
Face, neck & hands
Addresses aging skin beyond the face — including the neck and hands.
Hydration & glow
Enhances skin hydration and antioxidant properties for a radiant finish.
Thin or loose skin
Strengthens fragile skin by encouraging natural regeneration from within.
How your PRF facial works
- A small blood sampleYour own blood is the source — no synthetic products, which reduces the risk of rejection or allergic reactions.
- Centrifuge separationOur professionals separate the nutrient-rich plasma from red blood cells through a centrifuge process.
- Microneedling or microdermabrasionYour skin is prepared so the plasma absorbs deeply where it can do the most good.
- Plasma applicationThe platelet-rich plasma is applied to your skin, stimulating natural skin regeneration, collagen production, and hydration.
- Gradual, lasting resultsImprovement builds over 3–5 weeks, with full results in about 4–7 weeks — and results that can last up to 18 months.
For enhanced results, we may recommend combining PRF facials with Botox or fillers, customized to your unique skin goals.
Quick, minimally invasive, no downtime — and made from your own blood plasma at work.
Plasma facial questions, answered
What is a PRF facial?
A cosmetic procedure designed to naturally improve skin tone, texture, and elasticity. Using a sample of your own blood, our professionals separate the plasma from red blood cells in a centrifuge, then apply the nutrient-rich plasma to your skin after a microneedling or microdermabrasion treatment to maximize absorption and stimulate natural regeneration.
Is a plasma facial the same as a "vampire facial"?
Yes — PRF facials are also known as plasma facials or "vampire facials." The treatment uses platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), which is packed with growth factors that enhance collagen production, boost hydration, and promote a radiant complexion.
What can PRF facials help with?
Reducing fine lines and wrinkles, improving acne scars and uneven skin tone, restoring volume loss and elasticity, addressing aging skin on the face, neck, and hands, enhancing hydration and antioxidant properties, and strengthening thin or loose skin.
Is there downtime, and how long do results last?
The treatment is quick and minimally invasive with no downtime or lengthy recovery. Improvement is gradual over 3 to 5 weeks, full results are typically visible in about 4 to 7 weeks, and results can last up to 18 months.
Why is it called "natural"?
Because the treatment uses your own plasma, which reduces the risk of rejection or allergic reactions — your body regenerating itself, rather than a synthetic product.
