Microneedling with PRP: FAQs for Med Spa Clients [Phoenix]
If you’re looking for a non-surgical way to improve your skin’s appearance and texture, microneedling with PRP might be the right treatment for you. This innovative procedure combines microneedling, a collagen-inducing treatment, with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a substance derived from your own blood that contains growth factors that promote skin healing and collagen production.
At Rouge & Wright, our med spa services include microneedling with PRP to help you achieve smoother, healthier, and more youthful-looking skin. In this article, we’ve compiled some common questions about this treatment to help you decide if it’s right for you.
What is microneedling with PRP?
Microneedling is a skin rejuvenation treatment during which a trained aesthetician uses a device called a dermaroller to create tiny micro-injuries on your skin’s surface. This process prompts your skin to produce new collagen, which in turn can improve its texture and tone. PRP is a substance derived from your own blood that contains concentrated growth factors that help rejuvenate your skin.
During a microneedling with PRP treatment, your provider will apply PRP to your skin after microneedling, allowing it to penetrate deeper and more effectively. The PRP can enhance the healing process and boost collagen production, leading to firmer, brighter, and more youthful-looking skin.
What are the benefits of microneedling with PRP?
Microneedling with PRP offers several benefits, including:
– Improved skin texture and tone
– Enhanced collagen production
– Reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
– Minimized pores
– Brighter, more radiant skin
– Reduced acne scars
– Improved skin healing
– Natural-looking, long-lasting results
Is microneedling with PRP painful?
During the microneedling portion of the treatment, you may experience some mild discomfort, but your provider can apply a topical numbing cream to minimize it. PRP injections are typically painless, so the treatment is generally well-tolerated.
How long does a microneedling with PRP treatment take?
The length of the treatment can vary depending on the size of the treated area and the severity of your skin concerns, but it typically takes around 60-90 minutes.
Is there any downtime after microneedling with PRP?
Most clients experience mild redness and swelling for a few hours after the treatment, but it generally subsides on its own. You can resume your regular activities immediately afterward, although it’s important to avoid direct sun exposure and to apply sunscreen regularly to protect your skin.
How many microneedling with PRP treatments will I need?
The number of treatments required will depend on the individual’s skin concerns, but most clients require between 3-6 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart to achieve optimal results. Your provider will evaluate your skin and recommend a treatment plan specifically tailored to your needs.
Am I a good candidate for microneedling with PRP?
Microneedling with PRP is safe and effective for most people, but it’s best to consult with a skin care professional to determine if it’s the right treatment for you. It’s generally not recommended if you’re pregnant or have a history of blood-clotting disorders or skin cancer.
