Microneedling is an advanced aesthetic procedure that uses several small needles to puncture the top layers of your skin while applying topical hydrating and anti-aging serum(s), resulting in the rejuvenation of your skin by initiating collagen production through your body’s natural healing process.
This is not your at-home dermal rolling process! This process results in reducing the appearance of pigmentation, wrinkles and fine lines, improves the overall texture (smoothness and firmness) of your skin, and decreases pore size, acne scarring and stretch marks. Following your treatment, your face may be reddened for two-three days and may feel like a minor sunburn.
Microneedling may be used in combination with your own Platelet-Rich Plasma/Plasma Fibrin (PRPf – popular with many of the celebrity advertisements) and Stem Cell Cytokines from human bone marrow to increase the overall collagen production, decrease healing time and maximize your results. PRPf involves a quick blood draw in the office.
Your blood is spun to separate the plasma/fibrin portion of your blood and then is applied during and after the procedure. Microneedling treatment(s) are relatively painless due to the topical medical grade numbing used prior to the procedure. Following your treatment, your face may be reddened for two-three days and may feel like a minor sunburn. You may experience some bruising. This is normal and varies depending on different skin types. Most people notice visible skin improvements after just one treatment, however, depending on your skin appearance and goals, additional treatments may be necessary and can be performed as part of a maintenance anti-aging regimen several times a year. Purchase of post-care kit required.
