prp microneedling
PRP Microneedling is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that combines precision controlled microneedling with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) to enhance the skin’s natural repair process. Medical grade microneedles create controlled micro injuries in the skin, while PRP derived from your own blood and rich in growth factors is applied to stimulate accelerated healing, collagen production, and cellular regeneration beneath the skin’s surface. As a result, the skin becomes stronger, thicker, smoother, and more refined over time.
PRP Microneedling is clinically proven to improve a range of skin concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, uneven texture, acne scarring, stretch marks, and overall skin quality. While the face is the most commonly treated area, PRP Microneedling can also be performed on the neck, décolletage, hands, back, and chest for comprehensive skin rejuvenation and enhanced results.
How Does PRP Microneedling Work?
PRP Microneedling works by combining controlled skin stimulation with the body’s own regenerative properties. During the treatment, a small amount of your blood is drawn and processed to extract Platelet Rich Plasma, which is rich in growth factors that support healing and cell renewal. Medical-grade microneedling is then performed to create microscopic channels in the skin.
These micro-channels allow the PRP to penetrate deeply into the skin, where it activates collagen and elastin production and accelerates tissue repair. This process improves skin texture, firmness, and overall quality over time, while also helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines, scarring, and uneven tone. Results develop gradually as the skin regenerates naturally in the weeks following treatment.
Benefits of PRP Microneedling
PRP Microneedling improves skin tone, texture, and overall skin quality, with visible results often appearing within a few weeks. As every skin concern is unique, a personalised treatment plan is recommended. A consultation with our team will help determine the most effective approach for your individual skin goals.
Optimal results typically require multiple sessions. Improvements in skin texture, firmness, and tone continue to develop over time as collagen production increases. After completing a full course of treatments, clients can expect smoother skin, a more even complexion, reduced appearance of scars and pitting, improved stretch mark texture, and softened fine lines.
