Microneedling with PRP at Cosmetic Dermatology & Medispa of Newark
At Cosmetic Dermatology & Medispa of Newark, New Jersey, we are proud to offer microneedling with PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) – an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that combines the benefits of microneedling with the healing and regenerative properties of your body’s own plasma. This powerful combination helps to address a wide range of skin concerns, leaving your complexion smoother, brighter, and more youthful.
What Is Microneedling with PRP?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive procedure that uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, essential proteins for maintaining skin firmness and elasticity.
PRP, often referred to as “liquid gold,” is derived from your own blood. It contains a high concentration of growth factors and proteins that accelerate healing, boost collagen production, and enhance tissue repair. When combined with microneedling, PRP amplifies the skin’s ability to heal and rejuvenate itself, delivering even more dramatic results.
Benefits of Microneedling with PRP
The combination of microneedling and PRP stimulates collagen at deeper levels, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin.
Improved Skin Texture and Tone
This treatment smooths uneven skin texture, minimizes pores, and evens out discoloration for a radiant, flawless complexion.
Reduction of Scars and Stretch Marks
Whether from acne, surgery, or injury, microneedling with PRP significantly reduces the visibility of scars and stretch marks by promoting skin regeneration.
Faster Healing and Recovery
PRP speeds up the healing process, reducing redness and swelling post-treatment and allowing for quicker recovery compared to microneedling alone.
Increased Skin Hydration
The growth factors in PRP promote better moisture retention, leading to plumper, more hydrated skin.
Safe and Natural
Since PRP is derived from your own blood, there’s no risk of allergic reaction, making this treatment safe and suitable for most skin types.
How Does the Procedure Work?
Your journey starts with a consultation to assess your skin concerns and determine if microneedling with PRP is right for you.
Preparation
A small amount of blood is drawn and processed in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma.
Microneedling and PRP Application
During the procedure, the microneedling device creates micro-channels in the skin. The PRP is then applied, allowing it to deeply penetrate these channels for maximum effectiveness.
Post-Treatment Care
You may experience redness and mild sensitivity, similar to a sunburn, for a few days. Our team will provide aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results.
Results and What to Expect
Most patients notice visible improvements within a few weeks, with continued enhancement as collagen production increases over the following months. A series of treatments is often recommended for optimal results.
