What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a skin-rejuvenation treatment designed to improve the skin's overall texture and tone. By creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin, the procedure triggers the body's natural healing process, resulting in increased collagen production. Collagen, a key protein responsible for skin elasticity and firmness, diminishes over time, leading to wrinkles and sagging. Microneedling helps counteract these effects, making it an excellent choice for individuals seeking to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars, while improving skin texture and radiance.
What is Microneedling with PRP?
Microneedling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a more advanced form of microneedling that combines the benefits of traditional microneedling with the growth factors found in PRP. PRP is a concentrated solution of platelets derived from a patient's own blood. It contains a high concentration of growth factors and cytokines, which are essential for tissue repair and regeneration.
When PRP is applied to the skin after microneedling, it can significantly enhance the healing process and stimulate even more collagen production. This can lead to more dramatic improvements in skin texture, tone, and elasticity, making microneedling with PRP a popular choice for those seeking more significant results.
