Seven Reasons To Consider PRP Microneedling
It’s no surprise that microneedling is a popular cosmetic procedure. This minimally-invasive treatment can significantly improve the appearance of your skin in a number of ways without the risks that can be associated with more invasive treatment options. Microneedling stimulates the body’s natural healing response to improve skin texture, even skin tone and reduce wrinkles, fine lines, stretch marks and scars.
There are several types of microneedling – including traditional microneedling, radiofrequency microneedling and Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) microneedling – and you can book your free consultation with one of our expert practitioners at Refresh & Renew MedSpa situated in between Lake Orion and Clarkston, Michigan to find out which treatments are best for your goals and needs. Today we’ll explore the benefits of PRP microneedling so you can see if this may be the skincare treatment you’ve been looking for.
What Is PRP Microneedling?
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) microneedling treatments in Clarkston/Lake Orion, MIchigan.
PRP microneedling is administered using a small device that has multiple microneedles attached to it. This device is gently passed over the skin by your skilled practitioner at Refresh & Renew Medspa in Clarkston, Michigan, creating micro-injuries on the skin's surface. This is followed by the application of your platelet-rich plasma to stimulate the body's natural healing response.
To prepare the platelet-rich plasma for this procedure, your practitioner will take a small blood sample from you and put it in a centrifuge that separates the platelets (a blood cell that helps with healing) and concentrates them in the plasma (a liquid portion of blood).
Not a fan of having your blood drawn? No problem! There are other skin-boosting topicals we can use instead.
Seven Benefits of PRP Microneedling
PRP microneedling has become a major hit in recent years as it combines the benefits of traditional microneedling with the healing properties of PRP. Let’s take a look at the top reasons clients love this treatment to help them achieve their skincare goals.
Winds back the clock
Collagen is a protein that gives the skin its strength, elasticity and smoothness. As we age our bodies produce less collagen, which leads to the development of fine lines, wrinkles and sagging skin. PRP microneedling helps to both stimulate collagen production and improve the quality of new collagen that is produced to effectively reduce signs of aging.
Reduces scarring
PRP microneedling has been shown to be an effective treatment for reducing the appearance of scars, including acne scars and surgical scars. The body’s increased collagen production helps to fill in depressed scars and make them less noticeable while the growth factors in PRP helps to improve the overall health of the skin, making it less prone to scarring in the future.
Gives you that glow
By stimulating collagen production and increasing blood flow, PRP microneedling takes care of rough and uneven skin so you walk away with a brighter skin tone and smoother, more even texture.
Addresses hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation is a common skin concern that occurs when the skin produces too much melanin, resulting in dark spots or patches on the skin. PRP microneedling can reduce hyperpigmentation by stimulating collagen production and increasing cell turnover, which helps to fade dark spots.
Hydrates the skin
The PRP microneedling procedure creates tiny punctures in the skin, which allows for better penetration of skincare products that aim to hydrate and improve the skin’s overall health.
Minimally invasive
PRP microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that requires little downtime. Most can expect to resume normal activities the day after the procedure, making it a convenient and low-risk treatment option.
Safe and natural
PRP microneedling uses the body's own healing properties to improve the health and appearance of the skin. Since this procedure uses your own blood, there is no risk of an allergic reaction or rejection.
PRP samples are obtained by spinning a small sample in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets in the plasma.
