About this treatment
What this treatment is designed to do
Microneedling with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) combines two powerful regenerative technologies: controlled micro-injuries that trigger your skin's natural collagen production, and concentrated growth factors from your own blood that supercharge the healing response.
The procedure begins with a blood draw to prepare PRP — your blood is centrifuged to isolate the platelet-rich layer containing growth factors (PDGF, TGF-beta, VEGF, EGF). A medical-grade microneedling device then creates thousands of microscopic channels in the skin at precisely controlled depths (0.5-2.5mm depending on treatment area). PRP is applied topically and driven deep into these channels, delivering growth factors directly to the dermal layer where collagen and elastin are produced.
The result is dramatic improvement in skin texture, fine lines, acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, pore size, and overall skin tone. Unlike laser treatments, microneedling with PRP works on all skin types and tones without risk of hyperpigmentation. Most patients see visible improvement after one session, with optimal results after 3-4 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
