What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that’s used to treat skin concerns by stimulating collagen production. Also known as collagen induction therapy, this treatment creates micro-punctures in the skin using miniature, sterilized needles. This procedure can be used with Hyaluronic Acid (included), or combined with a PRP treatment.

Benefits of microneedling can include the reduction and improvement of:

• appearance of scars, including acne scars
• appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• enlarged pores
• appearance of hyperpigmentation, or dark spots
• smoothing uneven skin tone
• skin elasticity
• stretch marks
• appearance of scars

What is PRP?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous concentrated preparation of platelets and the associated growth factors in a small volume of plasma. Platelets release growth factors which regulate the healing cascade by signaling to surrounding cells to repair damaged tissue and regenerate new tissue.

Why PRP?

The use of platelet-rich plasma has become recognized as an all natural approach to anti-aging without the need for extensive or expensive surgery. PRP therapy uses injections of concentrated platelets of the patient’s own blood to naturally enhance the healing process of the damaged cells. The blood’s platelets contain proteins and other growth factors needed to accelerate the cell’s healing process.

How does PRP Therapy work?

A trained medical professional will draw the patient’s blood using a PRP kit then place the collected blood into an approved PRP centrifuge. The centrifuge will spin the PRP separating the red blood cells from the platelet-rich plasma. PRP will then be extracted and microneedled back into the skin. The remaining PRP will be injected directly into target areas.
