PRP Microneedling
What is PRP Microneedling?
PRP Microneedling, often referred to as the “Vampire Facial”, combines the advanced technique of microneedling with the regenerative properties of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy. The treatment begins with a small blood draw, which is then placed into a centrifuge to separate the plasma rich in growth factors and proteins. Once the PRP is prepared, microneedling is performed to create micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen production. The PRP is then applied to the skin, accelerating the healing process and enhancing rejuvenation. This treatment effectively reduces fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and improves skin texture, leaving you with a more youthful, glowing complexion.
