Microneedling is a facial procedure done with a sterile device that produces micropunctures into the skin surface (after your face has been numbed). This triggers the tissue to produce new collagen, and elastin by 200%. This technique will enhance the anti-aging effects of topical PRP application. Deep injections of PRP can increase your collagen up to 800%.
There is little “down time” for these procedures and because it is your own blood product, there is no risk of allergic reaction. You can go to work the next day. Your skin makes new collagen, elastin and blood vessels and your cells are re-vitalized naturally over the next 3 months creating a youthful glow. Skin texture becomes smoother, firmer and brighter. Treatment can also reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scars, pores and stretch marks. PRP can also be injected into the scalp to promote new hair growth. Depending upon the desired result, 3-6 treatments may be recommended. Enhanced appearance may last up to 18 months.
