Microneedling PRP facial is a skin rejuvenation treatment that combines microneedling with your body's own platelet-rich plasma to rebuild collagen, improve texture, and restore un-even skin tone. Also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), it treats fine lines, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and rough skin with very little downtime.
CIT works by introducing a controlled, safe injury to the skin, which triggers a wound healing response that produces collagen-dense skin cell regeneration rather than scar tissue. It is safe for all skin types, including those with melasma. We also use the same device for microchanneling, a less aggressive version of the procedure used to drive topical skincare products deeper into the skin.
Microneedling is relatively pain-free. We apply a topical numbing cream to your skin 30 minutes prior to the start of your microneedling procedure. This significantly minimizes discomfort throughout the procedure. The process is often described by clients as feeling like a scratching sensation. The most likely areas for sensitivity are the forehead, hairline and boney areas around the eyes. We are always able to adjust depth and settings based on your comfort.
When combining microneedling with platelet rich plasma for our PRP Facial, we begin the appointment by performing a simple blood draw from your arm. The tubes are then placed into a centrifuge, which spins the blood, separating it into layers: plasma on top, platelets and blood cells in the middle, and red blood cells at the bottom.
PRP comes from the center part, known as the serum portion.This serum is critical to the treatment because it promotes cell repair and stimulates collagen and elastin production, which are vital to maintaining firm and smooth skin.
Once the topical numbing cream has been removed and your skin cleansed and prepped, your provider will use a specialized microneedling device to create tiny holes, or microchannels, on the skin's surface. These microchannels serve as pathways for the extracted PRP, which your provider will apply topically.
What is PDGF? Ariessence is the next generation of skin rejuvenation: A pure, pharmaceutical grade growth factor that delivers up to 300,000x the regenerative power of PRP without the blood draw.
The whole process takes around an hour. After a Microneedling treatment or PRP facial, your skin will look red like a mild sunburn and feel hot like a sunburned sensation. The redness typically subsides by the next morning. The evening following your procedure you will rinse with cool water and then apply PRP again from the syringe we prepare for you to go home with.
After 24 hours, you will use a gentle cleanser and apply a hydrating cream. You will continue this for the 1 week following your procedure, holding off on using any of your home skin care products containing, glycolic, salicylic, benzoyl peroxide, or retinol. Your skin will look dull with a slightly rough texture for the first week. The second week, the skin looks better and better each day, and really starts to glow by the end of the second week.
Microneedling is considered to be a very safe and minimally invasive procedure however, as with any aesthetic treatment, there are a number of side effects that generally resolve soon after the procedure. These include temporary redness, itching and a small amount of bleeding around the puncture sites. In order to maximize and maintain the results achieved by microneedling, regular treatments are required. The expected number of treatments needed to achieve your desired results will be discussed at your consultation. For those new to collagen induction therapy we recommend starting with at least 3 sessions 4 weeks apart, followed by 1-3 treatments per year.
At home microneedling devices present a range of potential problems. The equipment available for home use involves needles that are both shorter, more blunt, and typically in the shape of a roller as opposed to perpendicular to the skin. This is less effective and has a higher risk for infection, as well as the possibility of scar tissue development as opposed to collagen dense skin regeneration. This is a consequence of both inadequate sterilization and suboptimal technique.
To ensure your safety, only licensed providers perform our PRP treatments. All of our PRP treatments are under strict safety and infectious disease protocols. These protocols ensure you get your PRP facial in a sterile environment. Standards we uphold include single use blood draw supplies, discarding of used needles/sharp objects in biohazard disposals immediately and safely, as well as medical and hospital grade disinfectants and cleaning of all surfaces between procedures and appointments.
