Microneedling at One Point Six Aesthetics
Microneedling is a clinically proven treatment that stimulates collagen, improves skin texture, and enhances overall skin health, without lasers or injectables.
At One Point Six Aesthetics in Santa Cruz, we use advanced microneedling technology to deliver controlled micro-injuries to the skin. This process triggers your body’s natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production for firmer, smoother, more radiant skin.
It’s a versatile treatment that addresses everything from fine lines and acne scars to enlarged pores and uneven tone, offering visible results with little to no downtime.

Customizable Boosters for Microneedling
At One Point Six Aesthetics, we take microneedling further by using advanced regenerative boosters that enhance collagen production, improve elasticity, and restore a radiant, youthful glow.

PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin)
We use your own blood’s healing components, including fibrin, platelets, and white blood cells, to naturally stimulate deeper collagen production and improve skin quality.PDGF (Platelet-Derived Growth Factor)
A concentrated growth factor treatment that promotes cellular regeneration, accelerates healing, and supports firmer, healthier-looking skin.VAMP (Vitamins, Amino Acids, Minerals, and PDRN)
A powerful blend designed to revitalise the skin from within. PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide) works to repair tissue and stimulate collagen, while essential vitamins and minerals nourish and energise the skin at a cellular level.

How It Works
PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) is a natural regenerative concentrate created from your own blood. Unlike PRP, it contains a higher concentration of growth factors and white blood cells, suspended in a fibrin matrix. When injected or microneedled into the skin, PRF stimulates tissue regeneration, collagen synthesis, and cellular turnover, especially in delicate areas like the under-eyes or around the mouth.
PDGF (Platelet-Derived Growth Factor) is a next-generation therapy that enhances blood flow, tissue oxygenation, and fibroblast activity. By supporting deeper cellular communication and collagen remodeling, PDGF helps rebuild firmer, smoother skin over time.
VAMP (Vitamins, Amino Acids, Minerals, and PDRN) is a powerful blend designed to revitalise the skin from within. PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide) works to repair tissue and stimulate collagen, while essential vitamins and minerals nourish and energise the skin at a cellular level.
