About
Skin texture and fine lines are often the first visible signs of aging, and many people look for treatments that work with the skin's own repair processes. Yuskin GFC Skin Treatment at Riva Skin, Hair & Aesthetics uses growth factors derived from your own blood to support collagen production and improve overall skin quality.
What Is Yuskin GFC Skin Treatment?
GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) is derived from your own blood and applied to the face using microneedling, supporting the skin's natural collagen and elastin production over a course of sessions.
How Is It Different From PRP?
Both GFC and PRP (platelet-rich plasma) are derived from your own blood, but GFC concentrates growth factors specifically, which some clinicians use as a refinement for certain skin applications. Your dermatologist can advise which approach is better suited to your goals.
What to Expect: Procedure, Downtime & Aftercare
A topical numbing cream is typically applied before the microneedling portion of treatment.
Mild redness or minor swelling at the treated area is common and usually settles within a day or two.
A course of multiple sessions, spaced several weeks apart, is generally recommended for visible improvement in skin texture and fine lines.
Most people resume daily activities the same day, with sun protection advised during healing.
