Colonia Dental Associates is currently the only certified Care Aesthetics provider within five miles of Edison offering PRF facial rejuvenation — a natural, blood-derived alternative to synthetic fillers.
If you live in Edison and have been researching PRF facial rejuvenation or microneedling, you may have noticed there isn’t another dental office nearby offering it. Colonia Dental Associates is currently the only certified Care Aesthetics provider within a five-mile radius of Edison providing PRF treatment — a regenerative option that uses concentrate from your own blood, rather than a synthetic filler, to rebuild collagen and refresh your skin from the inside out.
Our team treats every PRF appointment with the same clinical precision we bring to restorative and cosmetic dentistry. Whether you’re curious about smoothing fine lines, improving texture, or restoring subtle volume, we’re here to walk Edison patients through exactly how PRF works before you commit to anything.
Call our Colonia office, just a short drive from Edison, or request an appointment online.
Platelet-rich fibrin starts as an ordinary blood draw. Spinning that sample in a centrifuge separates out the platelets and growth factors, leaving behind a concentrated, fibrin-based material that your provider applies to the skin or injects beneath it. Unlike a simple platelet-rich plasma (PRP) solution, PRF forms a three-dimensional scaffold that keeps releasing growth factors well after your Edison appointment ends, which is part of why results continue to build over time rather than fading immediately.
The delivery method matters. PRF microneedling drives the concentrate into micro-channels created across a broader area of skin, making it a strong option for improving overall texture, minimizing pore size, and softening fine lines across the cheeks and forehead. PRF injections target a specific spot beneath the skin instead, which works well for filling in hollow areas under the eyes, along the cheeks, or in the nasolabial folds. Research backs this up: a 2024 systematic review from the National Institutes of Health found injectable PRF produced moderate-to-significant improvement in skin texture and elasticity across multiple studies.
Most Edison patients interested in PRF have already looked into medspas or dermatology offices outside their immediate area. Getting PRF facial rejuvenation from your dental practice instead means one office already familiar with your health history, one point of contact for scheduling, and — since PRF is drawn from your own blood — essentially no risk of the allergic reactions or rejection that can come with synthetic injectables.
Because Colonia Dental Associates already provides comprehensive cosmetic dentistry, PRF fits naturally alongside services like veneers, whitening, or a full smile makeover for Edison patients who want to address both skin and smile in the same relationship, rather than juggling separate providers.
Everything happens in one visit: we draw a small blood sample, process it chairside in a centrifuge, and apply or inject the resulting concentrate the same day. There’s no separate appointment just to receive treatment. Afterward, expect some mild redness or tenderness in the treated area for a day or so — most Edison patients are back to their normal routine well within 48 hours.
Because PRF relies on your body’s own healing process, don’t expect overnight results. Skin tone and texture typically improve over the following weeks, with collagen continuing to build for a few months. We’ll map out a treatment series that fits your goals and your schedule during your consultation.
PRF works well for Edison adults managing early signs of aging — think mild volume loss, uneven texture, or fine lines — who’d rather avoid synthetic fillers altogether. Since the material comes from your own blood, there’s very little risk of an adverse reaction.
It isn’t a universal fix, though, which is why a consultation comes before any treatment plan. Dr. Apratim or Dr. Singh will go over your history and goals honestly, including whether microneedling, injections, or some combination fits best. Take a look at our smile gallery for a sense of the results we deliver, and ask about pairing PRF with veneers or a smile makeover for a more complete outcome.
Both Dr. Ashlee N. Apratim and Dr. Gurjinder Singh are Associate Fellows of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry and completed the Rutgers University AAID MaxiCourse. As certified Care Aesthetics providers, Colonia Dental Associates is currently the only dental practice within five miles of Edison offering PRF facial rejuvenation and microneedling — alongside the Woodbridge, Clark, and Cranford patients we already serve.
