Microneedling

(with or without PRP*)

 

​

What is Microneedling?

​

Microneedling is a quick cosmetic procedure that is primarily used to minimize the signs of aging.

​

During the procedure, your provider will roll a professional-grade derma roller or FDA approved device with needles to prick the skin and stimulate new collagen production on the desired areas of your face. Because of this, microneedling is also known as collagen induction therapy or percutaneous collaged induction. (Before beginning the procedure, your skin is cleansed and your provider will apply a topical anesthetic. This will need to set for at least 30 minutes before microneedling begins.)

What is PRP?

​

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), as an injector or topically, can be added to the session for an additional cost. PRP contains stem cells and growth factors that can stimulate call growth, tissue repair, collagen growth, and healthy cell production.

 

A syringe of blood will be drawn while your face is numbing. The blood is then put into a centrifuge, which separates the PRP from other components of the blood.
