What Is Platelet-Rich Plasma?

We obtain Platelet-Rich Plasma, or PRP, by drawing a small amount of blood from your arm into a sterile tube. This sample is centrifuged to separate your plasma, which we use for the treatment, from your red and white blood cells. Plasma contains high concentration of platelets, stem cells and growth factors. Platelets help your tissue heal and grow new cells.

What Are the benefits Of Microneedling with PRP?

When PRP is used with microneedling, it penetrates your skin through the tiny channels the microneedles create. The PRP supercharges the microneedling benefits. PRP also addresses under-eye puffiness and dark circles to give you a more youthful, well-rested appearance. Since PRP is derived from your own blood, the side effects are virtually eliminated.

Which areas of the body can be treated with Microneedling and PRP?

  • Face
  • Neck
  • Décolleté
  • Arms
  • Hands
  • Legs
  • Abdomen
  • Back

Who is a good candidate for Microneedling with PRP?

Microneedling with PRP is a very safe and effective treatment for adults with all skin types who wish to improve their skin quality. The depth of the SkinPen can be adjusted to meet the client’s individual needs and objectives. Due to its low-risk profile, Microneedling with PRP is a good option for people who are not good candidates for lasers, such as those with darker skin types. SkinPen with PRP is also a very powerful tool for treating scars on the face and body.

How is the Microneedling with PRP procedure performed?

First, we apply a topical numbing gel to the treatment area for optimal comfort. Then we insert a new sterile cartridge containing 12 microneedles into the SkinPen and select the appropriate depth setting based on your skin’s unique needs.We apply your prepared PRP solution to the treatment area before and after the microneedling procedure to ensure that the PRP gets fully absorbed. We can also apply other therapeutic serums to further address your specific skin condition, such as melasma or hyperpigmentation.

How long does the procedure take?

About 60-90 minutes in total. The numbing process takes about 30 minutes. While you are numbing, we draw your blood and centrifuge it to obtain the PRP. The microneedling takes about 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area.

What Is the downtime after the Microneedling with PRP?

The downtime is minimal with only one to three days of mild redness, depending on the aggressiveness of the treatment. A post-treatment kit will help speed your recovery.

When will I see results after each treatment?

You’ll notice an immediate “glow” to your skin and it will continue to improve over the next few weeks. The full results can be seen up to 6 months post-treatment as collagen production continues.

How many treatments are needed to see optimal results?

We recommend a series of at least 3 treatments about 4-6 weeks apart to see the best results. For scarring, we recommend at least 6 treatments to see the best results. You can then do the treatment about once a year to maintain these results. Skin Pen with PRP is a very powerful tool for treating scars on the face and body and for enhancing the healing process.
