Microneedling has become a widely recognized treatment for improving skin texture, reducing fine lines, and addressing scars. When combined with PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, its effects are significantly enhanced, making it a popular choice for patients seeking anti-aging solutions. At Beach Family Doctors, we offer Microneedling with PRP to help patients achieve smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin naturally.
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, involves using tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the skin’s natural healing response, triggering collagen and elastin production. Collagen is a critical protein that provides structure, elasticity, and strength to the skin. By promoting collagen growth, microneedling helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars while improving overall skin texture.
PRP, or platelet-rich plasma, is derived from a small sample of your own blood. It contains growth factors and proteins that accelerate healing and tissue regeneration. When applied to the skin, PRP enhances collagen production, increases cell turnover, and promotes the repair of damaged tissues. PRP is commonly used for hair restoration and skin rejuvenation because it leverages the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
Combining microneedling with PRP offers several advantages over microneedling alone. The microchannels created by the needles allow the PRP to penetrate deeper into the skin, maximizing absorption and effectiveness. This combination treatment accelerates collagen production and improves skin repair, resulting in more dramatic and longer-lasting anti-aging results.
Enhanced Collagen Production
The synergy of microneedling and PRP stimulates collagen and elastin more effectively than either treatment alone. This results in firmer, more resilient skin.
Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Regular sessions can smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, particularly around the eyes, mouth, and forehead.
Improved Skin Texture and Tone
The treatment helps reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, acne scars, and uneven skin texture.
Natural and Safe
Because PRP uses your own blood, the risk of allergic reactions or complications is minimal.
Minimal Downtime
Most patients experience only mild redness or swelling that subsides within a day or two.
Long-Lasting Results
With periodic maintenance, Microneedling with PRP provides lasting improvements in skin appearance and overall health.
This treatment is suitable for adults seeking to reduce signs of aging, improve skin texture, or minimize acne scars. It works for most skin types, and a consultation with our team at Beach Family Doctors can help determine the best approach based on individual needs and goals.
A session begins with a topical numbing cream to ensure comfort. Next, microneedling is performed to create microchannels in the skin. Immediately afterward, PRP is applied to the treated area, allowing it to penetrate deeply through the channels. The procedure typically takes about an hour, and patients can resume normal activities with minimal downtime. Multiple sessions are recommended for optimal results.
Microneedling with PRP offers a powerful, natural solution for anti-aging, acne scars, and overall skin rejuvenation. By combining the benefits of collagen induction and growth factor therapy, patients achieve smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin with long-lasting results.
