Microneedling with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
For those looking to improve the appearance of scars, boost collagen, or encourage hair growth, microneedling might offer a minimally invasive solution.
Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that involves repeatedly puncturing the skin with very tiny, sterile needles. The most popular microneedling is a dermaroller, it is made up of micro-fine needles that range in diameter from 0.5 and 2.5 millimeters.
What are the benefits of microneedling?
- Immediate results
- Provides long term solution
- Stimulates hair follicles
- Works with other skincare treatments
- Reverse the sign of aging
- Smoother skin texture and tone
- Softens fine lines and wrinkles
- Reduce the appearance of scars
- Increase facial volume
- Reduce Rosacea and dark circles
Immediately after a microneedling treatment you will see the skin looking more plump, radiant and pink for about two weeks after the initial treatment. It has been proven that by receiving treatment a month apart from each other for about four months produces a drastic increase in collagen and elasticity which makes microneedling a long term solution.
However we do not stop there, one thing that sets our practice apart is that we offer Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) facial rejuvenation along with our microneedling treatment.
PRP facial rejuvenation is a natural product created from your own body. A small amount of blood is drawn and placed in a sterile tube that is spun in a centrifuge to separate the different components of the blood. Platelets are the cells that help tissue to heal and grow new cells. When injected into the skin, the PRP creates collagen and regenerates tissue. In this way, PRP softens wrinkles and creates smoother skin texture and tone.
PRP is 100% safe. PRP therapy uses platelets taken from the patient’s own blood, thereby ensuring no risk of disease transmission, allergic reaction or rejection. This means PRP therapy can be performed on patients of all ages.
PRP is Natural. All the growth factors, proteins and cytokines are sourced from the patient therefore this approach carries no risk of rejection of foreign substances. By using your own platelets your body is able to heal itself naturally.
We work with PCA skin care to provide our patients with the best at home care products to keep your results long lasting.
