Microneedling
Service Description
This procedure uses tiny needles to pierce the skin allowing new collagen to grow. This procedure uses your skin's own natural healing ability to reduce the look of fine lines, scars and wrinkles. Micro-needling is an easy, minimally invasive procedure that you can do as little or as much as you want. This procedure is perfect if you are looking to simply reduce the look of fine lines, or if you are treating scarring from acne. What skin conditions does micro- needling improve? • Rough skin texture • Wrinkles • Fine lines • Crow's feet • Laugh lines • Surgical scars • Acne scars • Chicken pox scars • Large pores • Sun damage • Aging skin • Stretch marks Micro- needling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Often, results of micro needling can be further improved when used in combination with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). Studies have shown that PRP can expedite the healing process of tissues and reduce the appearance of pigmentation and acne scarring when used with micro needling. PRP treatment involves using the patient's own blood as a resource to isolate the platelets with a centrifuge. Because the blood is directly from the patient, the risks of the body rejecting the plasma or having an allergic reaction are minimal. PRP contains proteins and several growth factors that regulate and activate cell migration and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. 4-6 treatments 4 weeks apart to maintain collagen production and to optimize their skin rejuvenation is ideal to receive.
