Microneedling and PRP

Microneedling with PRP uses your body’s own healing power to stimulate hair growth and reduce the appearance of acne, scars, dark spots, wrinkles, and large pores.

About Microneedling

Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that stimulates the body’s natural healing process by creating tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This activates collagen and elastin production, leading to smoother, firmer, and healthier-looking skin. When combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP)—a concentration of healing growth factors derived from your own blood—the results can be even more powerful.

For skin rejuvenation, microneedling with or without PRP can improve fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, and overall skin texture and tone. For hair restoration, PRP is injected into the scalp to stimulate dormant follicles, increase blood supply, and encourage thicker, healthier hair growth.

Together, microneedling and PRP offer a natural, safe, and effective way to restore both skin vitality and hair density without surgery or extended downtime.

How it Works

Procedure Details
  • Facial rejuvenation: A microneedling device creates thousands of tiny channels in the skin. PRP is then applied topically or injected, allowing growth factors to deeply penetrate and accelerate healing and collagen production.

  • Hair restoration: PRP is carefully injected into targeted areas of the scalp, where it nourishes follicles and promotes stronger, healthier hair growth over time.

Risks / Benefits

Benefits include improved skin tone, smoother texture, reduction of scars, brighter complexion, and thicker hair growth—all using the body’s natural healing factors. Risks are generally low but can include temporary redness, swelling, or bruising. Infection or scarring is extremely rare when performed by a trained professional.

 

Recovery and Outlook

Most patients feel comfortable returning to work and social activities quickly. Results are gradual and natural-looking, and maintenance treatments help sustain long-term benefits for both skin and hair.

 

When To Call the Doctor

Call if you experience prolonged redness, spreading irritation, significant swelling, or signs of infection after treatment.

 

Who gets microneedling?

  • Patients with acne scars, fine lines, or uneven skin texture
  • Those seeking overall skin rejuvenation without surgery
  • Individuals noticing hair thinning or early hair loss
  • Mild scars, especially those from acne or burns, and stretch marks.
  • Skin discoloration or uneven skin tone.
  • People willing to commit to a series of treatments for best results.

Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure for your skin. Your healthcare provider uses thin needles to make tiny holes in the top layer of your skin. The damage helps stimulate your skin’s healing process, so it produces more collagen and elastin. These proteins keep your skin firm and smooth.

Quick answers to questions you may have

Are there risks or side effects?

Benefits include improved skin tone, smoother texture, reduction of scars, brighter complexion, and thicker hair growth—all using the body’s natural healing factors. Risks are generally low but can include temporary redness, swelling, or bruising. Infection or scarring is extremely rare when performed by a trained professional.

 

Does microneedling hurt?

A topical numbing cream is applied before microneedling, making the procedure well-tolerated. For scalp treatments, small injections may cause mild pressure or sensitivity, but most patients describe the discomfort as minimal and brief.

 

How soon will I see results?
  • Skin: Improvements in texture and glow can often be seen within a few weeks, with collagen-building continuing for several months. A series of treatments delivers the best outcomes.

  • Hair: Patients may notice less shedding and early signs of new growth within 2–3 months, with optimal results after a series of treatments spaced about a month apart.

Is there downtime after the procedure?

Downtime is minimal. After microneedling, the skin may look red—similar to a mild sunburn—for 1–2 days, with slight peeling possible. For scalp PRP, mild tenderness or pinpoint bruising can occur but usually resolves quickly. Most people return to normal activities the same or next day.
