Just How Powerful is PRP?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has transformed the medical industry as a whole and made comprehensive healing possible on an entirely new level. If you are coping with bothersome cosmetic conditions that have not responded to other forms of treatment, PRP could be your answer.

PRP: Harnessing Your Own Blood

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is obtained from your very own blood that is placed through a centrifuge in order to obtain plasma that contains a very high concentration of platelets. Platelets contain growth factors that stimulate the production of collagen in your skin and support healthy skin cell renewal. This means that PRP can effectively regenerate the skin and reverse years of damage and signs of aging.

How does the PRP Combine with Microneedling?

Microneedling alone is an incredibly powerful treatment that improves complexion, strengthens the skin’s firmness, and smooths away rough texture. It involves the use of a special pen equipped with tiny micro-needles that work across the skin to create very small, controlled, and painless “injuries” to the skin. The body responds to these “injuries” by jumping into repair mode, so microneedling essentially tricks the skin into boosting collagen production and working overtime to repair dead and damaged skin.

When PRP is applied to the skin during and after the microneedling process, healing essentially occurs on a supercharged and accelerated level.  Acne scars, sun marks, wrinkles, discoloration, and dull, worn out skin can all be reduced, eliminated, and rejuvenated using this short, simple procedure.
