12/17/2024
Fine lines, uneven skin tone, or dull texture can leave you feeling less confident in your appearance. If you're looking for a way to refresh your skin with noticeable yet natural results, microneedling with PRP may be the solution. This treatment helps your skin repair itself while improving tone, texture, and overall radiance. At Starr MedSpa in Westlake Village, CA, we combine advanced techniques with personalized care to help you achieve smoother, healthier-looking skin.
What is PRP microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a noninvasive skin rejuvenation treatment that works by creating tiny channels in the skin to stimulate collagen. Over time, patients enjoy smoother, firmer, and healthier-looking skin, all with little to no downtime. Microneedling with PRP is a more advanced procedure offered at Starr MedSpa for patients looking to maximize their skin's health. This innovative treatment enhances microneedling results by adding a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) serum made from a small sample of your blood. The powerful growth factors in PRP can take your treatment to another level by promoting long-term rejuvenation, giving you a smoother, glowing complexion.
Which skin issues can you treat with PRP microneedling?
One of the main benefits of PRP microneedling is its ability to address a wide range of common skin imperfections, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars and other types of scarring
- Uneven skin tone or discoloration
- Sun damage and hyperpigmentation
- Dull or rough skin texture
Whether you have a specific concern in mind or just want to treat your skin, microneedling with PRP can deliver noticeable results without the downtime of more invasive procedures.
How many microneedling sessions do I need?
The number of microneedling sessions depends on your goals and the condition of your skin. For many people, 3 – 4 collagen induction therapy treatments spaced 4 – 6 weeks apart can make a significant difference in skin tone and texture. If you're addressing deeper issues, such as severe acne scars or advanced signs of aging, additional sessions may be recommended to help achieve your desired results. Our team at Starr MedSpa will work with you to create a customized treatment plan tailored to your skin's needs.
How long does it take to recover after a PRP microneedling treatment?
The recovery process after PRP microneedling is quick and easy for most patients. You may experience mild redness and sensitivity for the first day or two, similar to a sunburn. These effects typically subside within 72 hours, revealing brighter, healthier-looking skin as healing progresses. Because the downtime is minimal, you can easily make some time for skin rejuvenation without disrupting your routine.
