At DS Skin & Lips MedSpa in Scottsdale, Arizona, we’re thrilled to offer microneedling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), a cutting-edge treatment that rejuvenates and enhances your skin. Here’s what you need to know about this popular procedure.
Microneedling with PRP combines microneedling and PRP to rejuvenate the skin. Microneedling uses fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production. PRP, derived from your own blood, contains growth factors that promote healing. When applied during microneedling, PRP enhances the results, leading to a more youthful and radiant complexion.
The process begins with a consultation where we assess your skin and goals. During the procedure, a small amount of your blood is drawn and processed to extract the PRP. While your PRP is prepared, microneedling is performed to create micro-injuries in the skin. PRP is then applied, allowing it to penetrate deeply and boost the skin’s regenerative effects. The entire session usually takes around an hour, with minimal discomfort reported by most patients.
Microneedling with PRP offers several benefits, including improved skin texture, reduced fine lines and wrinkles, and a more even skin tone. It also helps diminish acne scars and stretch marks. By boosting collagen production and utilizing PRP’s healing properties, this treatment can result in smoother, firmer, and more youthful skin.
Yes, microneedling with PRP is generally safe when performed by a skilled professional. Using PRP from your own blood reduces the risk of allergic reactions. Our team at DS Skin & Lips MedSpa adheres to strict safety protocols to ensure a comfortable and effective treatment. We also provide detailed aftercare instructions to support optimal healing.
Improvements typically begin within a few weeks, with more noticeable results emerging over several months as collagen production continues. The exact timeline can vary depending on individual factors and the treatment area. We’ll discuss your expected outcomes and create a customized plan to help you achieve your goals.
The number of treatments required depends on your skin concerns and desired results. Many patients achieve significant improvements with 3-4 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your needs and recommend a treatment plan tailored to your skin.
Post-treatment, you might experience redness and mild swelling, similar to a sunburn, which usually fades within a few days. To ensure the best results, follow our aftercare instructions, including avoiding direct sun exposure and using gentle skincare products.
