Microneedling with PRP
Microneedling with PRP combines the benefits of microneedling with the regenerative properties of your own platelet-rich plasma (PRP). This treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture, reducing fine lines, and addressing various skin concerns such as acne scars and hyperpigmentation.

WHAT IT IS?
Microneedling with PRP is a minimally invasive procedure that creates micro-wounds in the skin to stimulate collagen production. This multipurpose treatment leverages the body’s natural healing process and enhances it with the power of your own plasma. PRP contains proteins, including growth factors and cytokines, which aid in skin tissue repair and regeneration. To achieve optimal results, a series of multiple treatments is typically recommended.

HOW IT WORKS
Microneedling uses a handheld device equipped with extremely sharp, sterile needles to puncture the skin and stimulate collagen production. The addition of PRP makes the treatment more effective, as the plasma contains essential growth factors that accelerate the healing process and promote healthier skin.
Preparation: A blood sample is taken from you, and a centrifuge is used to separate the PRP from the rest of the blood.
Treatment: Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed, and a numbing cream will be applied. During the procedure, your own PRP is applied to the treatment area. You may feel warmth and a scratching/pulling sensation as the device moves over your skin, but the numbing cream minimizes discomfort.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Microneedling with PRP is a minimally invasive procedure with very little downtime. Here’s what you can expect:
Immediately After Treatment: Your skin will likely be red and swollen, which can last up to a few days.
Post-Treatment Care: You can return to your normal routine immediately, but it’s important to avoid sun exposure until your skin heals fully.
