Microneedling / PRP
Unlock smoother, younger-looking skin
Concerned about fine lines, wrinkles, or scars? Introducing SkinPen Microneedling and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)! These treatments are your pals when it comes to tackling these skin woes, helping you get that smoother, firmer, and glowy skin you’ve been dreaming of. It’s all about helping your skin look and feel its best, naturally and effectively.
SkinPen Microneedling
Often referred to as collagen induction therapy, microneedling is a non-invasive way to help your skin look smoother, firmer, and younger overall. We use the SkinPen, the gold standard for microneedling treatments designed with tiny needles that gently create micro-injuries on the skin’s surface.
But worry not; it’s way less scary than it sounds! These tiny injuries encourage your body into natural healing mode, increasing collagen and elastin production, leading to plumper and smoother skin over time. The process not only works wonders in reducing wrinkles but also minimizes pores and fades scars.
And the best part? It’s not just for the face; it works on various areas, be it scars, large pores, or stretch marks. The procedure itself is quick and straightforward: a topical anesthetic is applied for comfort, the SkinPen does its magic, and you’re good to go with minimal downtime!
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
PRP is a regenerative treatment that uses the natural healing power of the patient’s blood to rejuvenate your skin. To perform this treatment, a small sample of your blood is drawn and placed in a centrifuge to separate the nutrient-rich plasma from the rest of the blood components.
This is then meticulously either injected into specific areas of your skin or smoothly applied on the surface during a microneedling procedure. The injected or topically applied PRP goes to work, mending and revitalizing the skin, leading to skin that not only appears younger but feels resilient and refreshed too. The result is a smoother canvas with diminished lines and wrinkles. When paired with microneedling, PRP acts like a healing turbo boost, accelerating the recovery process and enhancing the overall treatment outcome.

MicroNeedling/PRP Downtime & What to Expect
Immediate After-Effects
After your microneedling and PRP treatment, it's normal to see some redness, akin to a mild sunburn. You might also experience some skin tightness, minor swelling, and a bit of sensitivity to touch. But don’t worry, these are common signs that your skin's healing process is in action.
Duration of Downtime
Typically, the most noticeable symptoms like redness and sensitivity last for about 24 to 48 hours post-procedure. However, everyone's skin is different. While many people see these symptoms subside in a day or two, for others, it might take up to a week for the skin to fully settle.
Skincare Post-Treatment
For the first few days after the treatment, we recommend avoiding using makeup and applying any products with harsh chemicals. Your skin is still healing, so treat it gently. Use a mild cleanser, moisturize with a gentle product, and most importantly, apply sunscreen when stepping out, even if it's cloudy. Your skin will be more sensitive to the sun after the treatment, so it’s important not to skip applying sunscreen in your routine.
Physical Activities
It's best to skip any strenuous activities that cause sweating for at least 24 hours after the procedure. Sweat can irritate the skin and possibly lead to increased redness or other minor complications.
Final Results
While the initial side effects of the treatment might be a bit off-putting for some, remember, good things come to those who wait. Over the weeks following your microneedling/PRP treatment, you'll start noticing your skin becoming firmer, smoother, and more radiant. Scars and hyperpigmentation will begin to fade, and your overall complexion will improve. Like crafting a masterpiece, it doesn’t happen overnight but the end result is truly beautiful.
