What is microneedling with PRP?

Microneedling with PRP combines two minimally invasive aesthetic treatments to rejuvenate your skin with minimal discomfort or downtime.

Also called collagen induction therapy, microneedling involves creating tiny punctures in the skin’s surface with dozens of needles. The Kefi Advanced Laser & Skin team can control the depth of the needles to guide your level of rejuvenation. 

That process creates micro-wounds that trigger your natural healing response, sending collagen and elastin to repair the damage. These proteins keep your skin tight, responsive, and supple.

Platelet-rich plasma, or PRP, is a substance in your blood that activates growth factors. After performing a microneedling treatment, the team can extract PRP from your blood and apply it to your tiny wounds to accelerate healing.

What skin concerns can microneedling with PRP treat?

Kefi Advanced Laser & Skin may recommend microneedling with PRP to treat aesthetic concerns such as:

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Hyperpigmentation
• Brown spots
• Sun damage
• Acne scars
• Mild surgical scars
• Enlarged pores
• Uneven skin tone or texture

Microneedling with PRP can also brighten dull skin and promote a healthier, younger-looking appearance.

What are the benefits of microneedling with PRP?

Microneedling with PRP has many benefits for men and women who want to rejuvenate their skin without surgery. Popular benefits include:

• Little to no downtime
• Minimally invasive treatment
• Activates natural collagen and elastin production
• Softens textural concerns
• Corrects pigmentary abnormalities
• Minimizes signs of aging

Since microneedling with PRP is safe and minimally invasive, you can return to Kefi Advanced Laser & Skin for maintenance treatments to extend your results.

What can I expect from microneedling with PRP?

When you arrive at Kefi Advanced Laser & Skin for microneedling with PRP treatments, the team applies a numbing anesthetic to your skin. They may also draw your blood at this time to prepare your PRP. The team places the blood in a centrifuge, which spins it to isolate the PRP. 

Next, the team uses the microneedling device to create micro-injuries in your skin. They apply the PRP to stimulate the natural healing process. The entire procedure takes about 45 minutes. While you may experience mild redness, swelling, and pain, these effects typically subside within 24 hours.

Most clients need around 3-6 treatments to see visible improvements. You may start to see tighter, clearer skin within a few weeks of your first treatment.
