How PRP Can Enhance Your Microneedling Treatment

How PRP Can Enhance Your Microneedling Treatment

If you’re ready to turn back the clock and erase unsightly signs of aging from your skin, microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) may be just what the doctor ordered. Microneedling specialist Andrea C. Beavers, PA-C and our knowledgeable team at Star Treatment Healthcare Services and Med Spa offer PRP enhanced microneedling at our state-of-the-art facility to increase collagen production for better-looking skin.

Compare microneedling with and without PRP 

One study contrasting the benefits of microneedling with and without platelet-rich plasma (PRP) showed microneedling with platelet-rich plasma improved acne scars by 62.20% versus only 45.84% when performed without PRP. That’s why we incorporate PRP into your microneedling treatment to better stimulate collagen production and reduce signs of aging. 

 

Mrs. Beavers begins by drawing a blood sample to retrieve your PRP. She then:

 

  1. Cleanses your skin
  2. Applies a numbing lotion
  3. Rolls a special tool containing fine needles over your face
  4. Creates micro-wounds on your skin’s surface

 

Mrs. Beavers then massages the PRP into your skin to enhance your treatment.
