What Is Micro-Needling?
Microneedling is a treatment that utilizes a mechanical microneedle pen to perforate the skin, on and around the scalp, multiple times. This process creates a number of controlled, minor wounds which stimulate the bodies growth processes which in turn produces collagen and stimulates a repair response that encourages hair growth mechanisms in the desired hair follicles.

Experts in the beauty world have seen the way that PRP can heal injuries in other parts of the body and have made the connection between PRP’s healing properties and its ability to extend those healing properties into the skin. As a result, PRP has become a form of cosmetic treatment and is now used as the main ingredient in many different facial rejuvenation treatments. If you want a natural way to improve your skin, PRP treatment can do just that.
How Does a PRP Treatment Improve the Appearance of Your Face?
When used to treat the signs of aging that appear on the face, PRP uses its healing properties to address the root cause of skin issues. It can help heal both aging and damaged skin cells. When inserted into the skin, it also increases oxygen-rich blood flow to the face which leads to many skin benefits.
As a result, collagen and elastin production increase and there are significant improvements in the firmness, tone, and texture of the skin
Is It Safe?
One of the many benefits of using PRP therapy to rejuvenate the skin on the face is that it is completely safe. During treatment, your platelets are separated from your blood and used on your face. You aren’t inserting anything foreign into your skin, nor are you applying or inserting any harsh ingredients onto or into your skin. Instead, you are simply utilizing the healing properties of your blood so there is no risk of any kind of allergic reaction.
What Areas of the Face Does It Treat?
This treatment specifically treats targeted areas on the face and will help improve the most common signs of aging. It helps improve the appearance of general wrinkles and fine lines that show up on the face, as well as other skin issues including dark under-eye circles or the signs of sun damage on the skin. Additionally, PRP therapy will help improve the appearance of general or acne-related scars on the surface of the facial skin as well.
What Happens During a Session?
At our office, we have chosen a very specific device as a way to administer PRP into the skin during treatment. We use a patented system called Trans Dermal infusion device . This tool has been specifically designed for PRP treatment and works by creating micro-channels in the skin that allow the PRP to reach deep beyond the surface of the skin with precision. Compared to similar tools, this one delivers a much higher platelet concentration to the skin.
When you come in for a treatment, you will undergo the blood draw necessary to obtain your PRP. You will then experience a treatment similar to microneedling. The device we use is known for its accuracy and its ability to effectively penetrate the skin in such a way that the PRP can be best absorbed by the skin.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
The total number of sessions you will need varies from one person to the next based on your skin goals and the issues you are hoping to address. However, most patients require multiple sessions for optimal results. When you come in for a consultation, we will be able to analyze your skin and help develop a customized treatment plan based on your needs and goals. We will also watch your results post-treatment to see how your skin responds to the therapy.
How Long Will My Results Last?
Once you undergo the optimal number of treatments necessary to meet your goals, you will get results and you will experience all of the skin benefits that PRP has to offer. Once the PRP enters your system, it will immediately begin to heal your skin cells and rejuvenate your face. These results will build upon each other as you undergo more treatments and will begin to show up in the weeks and months following treatment as your body continue to heal your skin.
This treatment isn’t a substitute for dermal fillers, so you won’t experience results that wear off, so to speak. Instead, it is regarded more like an intensely effective facial. You can continue to undergo treatments when necessary to build upon your results and continue to experience the skin-rejuvenating benefits that this PRP treatment has to offer.
Am I a Candidate for PRP Facial Rejuvenation?
The benefit of using a PRP treatment to improve your skin is that it is safe, effective, and natural. As a result, most people who want to improve their skin qualify for this type of treatment. During your initial consultation, we will discuss your skin type, goals, and general health to make sure that you are a candidate for this treatment and that undergoing regular sessions will give you the results that you are looking for as a way to improve your overall skin.
