About PRP Microneedling

Microneedling PRP is a cosmetic procedure that uses controlled micro-injuries to stimulate your body’s natural healing process for treating various skin concerns such as wrinkles, sun damage, acne scars, burns, and enlarged pores. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a serum derived from your blood sample and then spun in a centrifuge to set apart the plasma from the blood for application. The growth factors and beneficial proteins present in the plasma help improve the results of the Microneedling treatment. The Microneedling with PRP treatment is ideal for total skin rejuvenation. Consult aestheticians at Illumin8skin to know Microneedling with PRP cost or queries.

Microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a safe procedure with quick recovery. A Microneedling pen or derma roller punctures tiny holes in the skin’s surface, creating channels for the PRP. A small quantity of the patient’s blood is drawn, placed in the centrifuge for roughly 15 minutes to create the platelet-rich plasma, and infused to accelerate healing in a specific area. The inclusion of PRP treatment in Microneedling offers superior results over Microneedling alone.

HOW IT WORKS

The Microneedling PRP procedure takes about 30-45 minutes to complete. Below are the steps involved in the treatment.

Pre-Treatment

One week before the PRP Microneedling treatment, you’re advised to avoid excessive sun exposure and discontinue the use of skin care products. Our aestheticians recommend arriving with a bare face on the day of the appointment. The face is cleansed, and a topical anesthetic is applied to numb the skin to avoid discomfort or pain. The numbing cream takes about 30 minutes to set and take effect before Microneedling begins.

During Treatment

A syringe of blood is drawn from your arm while your face is numbing – which is then put into a centrifuge to separate the PRP from the red blood. Next, the aestheticians roll a Microneedling instrument that pricks tiny holes in the desired areas of the face. The PRP is applied and massaged deep into the skin to work its magic. Lastly, a serum or balm is applied to soothe the skin and eliminate redness or irritation.

Post-Treatment

After the Microneedling with PRP treatment, strict avoidance of tanning beds, sun exposure, steam, harsh exfoliation, and swimming is recommended. Besides, our aestheticians’ post-treatment skin care regimen should also be followed religiously for the first 4-5 days after the session. Mild swelling and bruising are common, which fade away in a few days, and the treatment results are seen in two to three weeks.
