Microneedling
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that can improve the appearance and health of the skin. While it is primarily used for cosmetic purposes, it also helps with some medical conditions.

What is Microneedling?
During the treatment, a provider uses tiny needles to make small holes in the top layer of your skin. These wounds trigger the body’s natural healing response, which boosts collagen production and elastin production.
The face is the most common area of treatment but you can also get microneedling on your legs, back, neck or other areas where you notice aging or damaged skin.
Benefits of Microneedling
Microneedling can address many skin concerns like:
Wrinkles and fine lines
Enlarged pores
Mild scars from acne or burns
Hyperpigmentation
Uneven skin tone
Stretch marks
Additionally, the treatment may be good for patients with alopecia areata or hyperhidrosis.
Vampire Facial
Thanks to Kim Kardashian, many people have heard of the vampire facial. While it may look a bit scary, there are actually many benefits to microneedling with PRP.
What is PRP?
PRP, or platelet rich plasma, is derived from a small sample of your blood. This solution contains a high concentration of growth factors and beneficial proteins.
Adding PRP to your microneedling session can boost your facial rejuvenation. After your microneedling, the provider will apply the PRP into the treated areas and massage it to help the platelets penetrate deep into the skin.
What Can Platelet Rich Plasma Treat?
Microneedling with PRP can improve many skin conditions such as:
Acne scars
Age spots
Wrinkles and fine lines
Sun damage
Scarring from injuries
