Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive skin treatment using a device that creates tiny channels within the skin. Microneedling is an advanced exfoliation technique that aids in helping to reduce wrinkles, diminish scarring, and tighten or rejuvenate loose or aging skin to leave your skin glowing. As we age, collagen levels in the skin decline and new collagen can be produced when the skin is in repair mode.
Microneedling can be utilized as a stand-alone treated or coupled with the application of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or dermaplanning. When combined with other treatments microneedling helps penetrate the product deeper into the skin.
PRP Microneedling:
Microneedling with PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is a highly advanced technology using a device that creates small channels within the skin over the skin while applying platelets.
When PRP is added directly, your body’s natural healing response kicks in, which helps to speed up the healing process and stimulate skin renewal.
