What is Microneedling with PRP?

Microneedling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive

facial rejuvenation treatment that combines the power of microneedling with the healing

benefits of your body’s own platelets to improve skin texture, tone, and overall

appearance.

How Does Microneedling with PRP Work?

1. Microneedling:

During the treatment, a device with fine needles is used to create tiny micro-

injuries in the skin. These micro-channels stimulate the body’s natural healing

response, promoting collagen and elastin production, which helps reduce fine

lines, wrinkles, scars, and other skin imperfections.

2. PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma):

After drawing a small sample of your blood, your provider processes it to isolate

the platelet-rich plasma. PRP is rich in growth factors that promote healing and

stimulate tissue regeneration. The PRP is then applied to the skin after

microneedling to enhance the healing process and accelerate results.

Benefits of Microneedling with PRP

• Improved Skin Texture: Helps smooth out rough patches, reduce pore size, and

  enhance overall skin quality.

• Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Stimulates collagen production to minimize the

  appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

• Fights Hyperpigmentation: Can reduce sunspots, age spots, and other forms of

  discoloration for a more even skin tone.

• Minimizes Scarring: Helps improve the appearance of acne scars, surgical scars,

  and stretch marks by promoting tissue regeneration.

• Glowing Skin: Promotes the production of new, healthy skin cells for a radiant

  complexion.

• Natural Results: Since PRP is derived from your own blood, there is little to no risk

  of allergic reactions or side effects.

What to Expect During the Treatment

1. Consultation: Your provider will assess your skin concerns and determine if

microneedling with PRP is the right treatment for you.

2. Procedure:

• First, a topical numbing cream is applied to ensure your comfort during the

  microneedling process.

• Tiny needles are used to create micro-channels in the skin.

• PRP is then applied to the skin, allowing the platelets to enter the micro-

  channels and enhance healing.

3. Duration: The procedure typically takes 60-90 minutes, including preparation time

for numbing.

4. Post-Treatment Care:

• Mild redness, swelling, or bruising may occur, similar to a mild sunburn, but

  these effects typically resolve within a few days.

• Results will begin to appear within a week, with continued improvement

  over several weeks as collagen and elastin are produced.
