FAQs
1. Collagen Production and Skin Rejuvenation
- Microneedling creates micro-injuries in the skin that stimulate the body’s natural healing process, leading to increased collagen and elastin production. This results in firmer, smoother, and younger-looking skin.
- PRP enhances this effect by infusing growth factors, which boost the healing process and accelerate collagen regeneration.
2. Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles
- The combination of microneedling and PRP helps to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, especially around delicate areas like the eyes, mouth, and forehead, creating a youthful, refreshed appearance.
3. Improves Skin Texture and Tone
- This treatment helps reduce the appearance of uneven skin texture, large pores, and acne scars, leaving the skin with a smoother, more even tone.
- PRP promotes healing, resulting in more radiant skin that appears plump and hydrated.
4. Non-Surgical, Minimal Downtime
- Non-invasive with minimal discomfort or downtime. Microneedling with PRP allows you to get noticeable results without the need for surgery or extensive recovery.
- Most patients can return to daily activities within 1-2 days with some temporary redness and mild flaking.
5. Enhances Skin Hydration
- PRP is packed with platelets, which release growth factors that increase skin hydration and promote a healthy, glowing complexion.
6. Treats a Variety of Skin Concerns
- This treatment is highly effective for addressing a wide range of skin concerns, including acne scars, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, uneven skin texture, and age-related skin changes.
- It's suitable for most skin types and tones, helping restore a youthful, vibrant appearance.
7. Long-Lasting Results
- Microneedling with PRP results continue to improve over time as collagen production increases. Full results are typically seen within 6-8 weeks and can last for several months, with continued improvement after each session.
8. Natural, Safe Treatment
- PRP uses your body’s own blood, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or irritation, and offering a safe, natural solution for skin rejuvenation.
Microneedling with PRP offers a non-invasive and natural approach to skin rejuvenation, addressing common signs of aging and improving overall skin texture, tone, and health. It’s a great option for anyone looking for glowing, youthful skin without downtime or surgery.
Immediately After Treatment
- Redness and mild swelling are common and should subside within 24-48 hours. Your skin may feel warm, similar to a mild sunburn, but this is normal and should go away within a few hours.
- Mild dryness or flaking may occur as your skin heals, which is a natural part of the process.
- Avoid touching, rubbing, or scratching the treated area to minimize irritation or infection risk.
Post-Treatment Instructions
- Keep the skin hydrated: Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer and fragrance-free products for at least 3-5 days.
- Avoid direct sun exposure for 5-7 days after treatment. Always apply a high SPF sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) if you need to be outside.
- Avoid makeup for 24 hours post-treatment to allow the skin to breathe and prevent clogging pores.
- Refrain from using exfoliants or active ingredients (such as retinoids, AHAs, or BHAs) for 3-5 days after the treatment.
- Limit strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours, as sweating may irritate your treated skin.
- Avoid hot showers, saunas, or pools for 48 hours to prevent irritation from heat or chlorine.
Managing Side Effects
- Redness, swelling, and mild sensitivity are typical and should diminish within 1-2 days.
- If you experience any itching or dryness, applying a gentle hydrating serum can help soothe your skin.
- If you notice any pain, bruising, or other unusual reactions, contact us immediately.
What to Expect in the Days After Treatment
- Days 1-2: Expect redness, which will fade. Your skin may feel tight and sensitive to touch.
- Days 3-5: You may notice mild peeling or flaking as your skin regenerates. Continue with gentle moisturizing and avoid any harsh products.
- After 1 Week: Your skin should be fully healed, and you will begin to notice improvements in texture and tone, with full results showing up within 6-8 weeks.
Follow-Up Care
- For optimal results, we recommend 2-3 sessions of Microneedling with PRP, spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
- You may notice improvements in skin texture, tone, and fine lines as the treatment encourages collagen production.
1. What is Microneedling with PRP?
Microneedling with PRP is a treatment that combines two powerful procedures. Microneedling creates tiny microchannels in the skin using a specialized device, which stimulates collagen production and allows for better absorption of serums. PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is derived from your own blood, and it’s applied topically during the microneedling process to enhance healing and rejuvenate the skin.
2. What are the benefits of Microneedling with PRP?
- Stimulates collagen production: Microneedling encourages the skin to repair itself, leading to firmer, smoother skin.
- Improves skin texture: This treatment helps reduce acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation.
- Enhances skin tone: With PRP, the skin becomes healthier and more radiant.
- Non-invasive with minimal downtime, this treatment is ideal for anyone looking to rejuvenate their skin naturally.
3. How does PRP work in this treatment?
PRP is derived from your own blood. After a small sample is drawn, the blood is processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets. These platelets are rich in growth factors that promote healing and regeneration. The PRP is applied during the microneedling procedure, which allows it to penetrate deeply into the skin, enhancing skin rejuvenation and healing.
4. How many sessions will I need?
For optimal results, we typically recommend 2-3 sessions of Microneedling with PRP, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. Each session builds on the previous one to enhance skin texture, tone, and elasticity.
5. Is Microneedling with PRP painful?
Most patients experience only mild discomfort during the procedure. A topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area before the procedure, which helps minimize any discomfort. The sensation is often described as a mild prickling or vibrating feeling during the microneedling process.
6. How long does the treatment take?
The procedure usually takes about 60-90 minutes, including the preparation time for numbing and PRP extraction. The microneedling itself typically takes about 30-40 minutes.
7. What should I expect after the treatment?
- Redness and mild swelling are common and should subside within 24-48 hours.
- Mild dryness or flaking can occur as the skin heals and regenerates.
- Minimal downtime: Most people can resume their normal activities immediately after treatment, although you should avoid direct sun exposure and strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours.
8. How long until I see results?
You may begin to notice an improvement in your skin’s texture and tone as early as 2-3 weeks after your treatment, with full results typically visible around 6-8 weeks.
9. Is Microneedling with PRP suitable for all skin types?
Yes! Microneedling with PRP is safe for most skin types and tones. It’s an excellent option for individuals with acne scars, sun damage, uneven texture, or fine lines, as well as those looking for general skin rejuvenation.
10. Are there any side effects?
While side effects are rare, you may experience some redness, swelling, or mild irritation after the procedure. These effects typically resolve within a few hours to a day. In very rare cases, infection or scarring may occur, but this can be avoided by following post-treatment care instructions.
11. How do I prepare for Microneedling with PRP?
- Avoid using retinol or other exfoliating products for at least 3 days prior to treatment.
- Stay hydrated and avoid alcohol or blood-thinning medications 24 hours before the procedure.
- Arrive with clean skin, free from makeup or skincare products.
12. How do I book my Microneedling with PRP session?
