What is Microneedling with PRP?
Microneedling is a process which stimulates collagen production, essentially erasing fine lines and wrinkles from the face by creating new collagen (which gives skin elasticity). PRP is a plasma rich in platelets that is rich in growth factors and cytokines that promote healing. When combined, they result in noticeable improvement in texture and tone of the skin as well as reduction in the appearance of wrinkles and scars.
So how does the treatment work? The microneedling device contains tiny needles that create hundreds of tiny puncture wounds in the top layer of the skin. The plasma is then put into the injured skin to promote healing and production of new collagen.
To understand why microneedling works, we need to understand how the human skin heals itself. When we are injured, our skin repairs itself by producing collagen fibers to the wound and restore the skin's texture. When the injury is caused by wear and tear such as aging or sun damage, this repair process becomes less efficient and less complete, resulting in the formation of lines and wrinkles on the skin.

Microneedling works to stimulate the production of collagen to repair the damage and restore your skin to its youthful state. In addition, to PRP further enhance the healing power of the procedure by boosting the level of growth factors and cytokines in the treatment area and promoting cell turnover to help the skin look younger and more radiant. Because PRP is taken from your own blood, there are likely to be fewer side effects than if you were to use a synthetic product.
