So you want to reverse the effects of aging on your face? At PRO Institute, we have the ultimate weapon for you: microneedling with PRP.
With microneedling, we use sterile microneedles to create small pores in the skin. These are essentially tiny injuries to your body, which stimulate your body’s natural healing response and increase the production of collagen and elastin, leading to reduced wrinkles and revitalized skin.
When we add PRP therapy (platelet rich plasma), we can boost the effects even more. PRP therapy involves taking a sample of your blood, spinning it in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, which are then reinjected into your body. When we apply PRP during microneedling, the effects are heightened.
Here are 7 skin benefits of the procedure.
1. Reduced lines and wrinkles
The enhanced collagen production will fill in the fine lines and wrinkles in your skin, leaving it looking smoother, younger, and revitalized.
2. Diminished scarring
Scars, whether from acne or old injuries, can be difficult to treat because the healing process stopped long ago. Microneedling helps break up the old scar tissue and kickstart new healing in the area, diminishing the appearance of the scars.
3. Lightened sunspots
The new healing process also helps even out areas of uneven pigmentation in your skin, such as sunspots, age spots, and areas damaged by hyperpigmentation.
4. Less noticeable pores
Large pores make a difference in your skin’s texture, plus they’re quite noticeable. Microneedling and PRP can help reduce your pore size as the newly produced cells tighten up your skin.
5. Fresher, more youthful skin
Because new skin cells are produced as part of the healing response along with increased collagen and elastin, the overall effect is to give your skin a fresher, more youthful look. The new cells will be tighter, helping to even out the appearance of your facial skin.
6. Less darkness under the eyes
As your skin heals and more collagen and elastin are produced, the dark circles under your eyes will begin to fade away in favor of newer skin cells that haven’t become discolored over time.
7. Minimal downtime
A full treatment of microneedling with PRP takes about an hour, with no downtime afterwards — you can just continue your normal activities. The number of treatments you need will depend on your individual situation, but you’ll likely see the best results with several treatments, each about a month apart.
