2026 Skin Reset: PRP/PRF and VIVA Nano Fractional in Lexington

Studio Z Skincare • January 7, 2026

New year, new skin. January in Lexington, KY brings brisk Bluegrass air, indoor heat, and a great opportunity to reset your skincare routine. At Studio Z Skincare in the Palomar Centre, our medically trained aestheticians pair PRP/PRF with VIVA Nano Fractional RF to smooth texture, soften acne scars, refine pores, and brighten tone—just in time to start 2026 with confidence.


Why pair PRP/PRF with VIVA Nano Fractional RF?


VIVA Nano Fractional RF creates precise microchannels and delivers controlled radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen remodeling. When we infuse PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) during and after the treatment, your skin receives a concentrated dose of your body’s own growth factors—enhancing healing and amplifying results.


What this combo can target:


  • Rough texture and enlarged pores from past breakouts
  • Acne scars and mild to moderate textural irregularities
  • Fine lines around the eyes and mouth
  • Dullness, uneven tone, and sun damage
  • Early skin laxity and crepey areas on the face and neck


PRP vs. PRF: Which is better for skin rejuvenation?


People Also Ask: Is PRP or PRF better for facial rejuvenation?

The short answer: it depends on your goals and biology. PRP is a concentrated plasma rich in platelets and growth factors; it’s widely used, fast-acting, and highly effective for glow and texture. PRF is processed differently—without anticoagulants—and forms a fibrin matrix that releases growth factors more slowly over time. Many clients find PRF especially beneficial for sustained improvement in fine lines and delicate under-eye areas. At Studio Z Skincare, we assess your skin, health history, and timeline (wedding, Derby season, or a milestone event) to recommend the optimal approach—or even combine PRP and PRF when appropriate.


What to expect at Studio Z Skincare in Palomar Centre


Your experience is designed for comfort and results. After a comprehensive consultation in our Lexington studio, we draw a small amount of blood, prepare PRP or PRF in-house, and apply a medical-grade topical anesthetic. VIVA Nano Fractional RF is then performed in tailored passes, followed by strategic application of PRP/PRF to maximize absorption.


  • Duration: About 45–75 minutes, depending on the areas treated
  • Downtime: Expect redness and a sunburn-like warmth for 24–48 hours; light flaking may occur
  • Results: Notice a fresher glow within 1–2 weeks; collagen remodeling and scar softening build over 6–12 weeks
  • Series: Most clients benefit from a series of 3–4 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, with maintenance 1–2 times per year


Why January is the ideal month in Lexington


Winter in Fayette County means lower UV exposure—perfect for advanced resurfacing. Scheduling your series now lets you hit peak results by springtime events in Central Kentucky.


Benefits of a winter reset:


  • Less sun exposure reduces post-procedure pigmentation risk
  • Easier to follow post-care while you’re indoors
  • Build collagen now for smoother, brighter skin by Derby season
  • Aligns with New Year wellness goals for a visible, measurable change


Science-backed care, delivered with comfort


Studio Z Skincare sets the standard for professional, results-driven treatments in Lexington. Our combination protocols, advanced devices, and medically trained aestheticians ensure you get precision care with a relaxing spa experience—not a rushed in-and-out visit. We may recommend complementary services—such as dermaplaning for enhanced product penetration or light therapy to calm redness—to support your outcomes safely.


Is it right for you?


PRP/PRF with VIVA Nano Fractional RF is suitable for most skin types and tones. If you have active infections, are pregnant, or have specific medical conditions, we will tailor timing and modalities accordingly. During your consultation, we map a plan that fits your skin, lifestyle, and budget—whether you’re in Lexington proper or visiting from Nicholasville, Versailles, Georgetown, or Richmond.
