Microneedling is an aesthetic procedure that rejuvenates the skin by stimulating collagen production. This technique involves using fine needles to puncture the skin’s surface, triggering collagen and elastin production in the body. Microneedling can treat various areas, including the face, neck, and décolletage, and is suitable for reducing the appearance of scars, wrinkles, and large pores. Individuals seeking a non-surgical option to achieve smoother, firmer, and more toned skin. In a few weeks, results are usually visible, with improvements developing. The longevity of the results varies, but they can last for several months and be maintained with regular sessions.
Adding Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) to microneedling enhances the procedure’s benefits. PRP involves using a portion of the patient’s blood, enriched with platelets, to accelerate the healing and rejuvenation process. When combined with microneedling, PRP can improve skin texture and tone, reduce the severity of acne scars, and promote a more youthful appearance. This combination treatment can lead to more significant, lasting results, making it an excellent option for those seeking an advanced level of skin rejuvenation.
