Microneedling/PRP
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is the process of the skin’s ability to heal itself by puncturing the dermis with microscopic needles (microneedling) which triggers the production of new collagen cells. Microneedling was discovered in the 1940's for the revision of scars from burns. Since that time the treatment has become a prominent way to improve many skin conditions. Microneedling improves texture of the skin for acne scarring. It is comfortable and the downtime is minimal. Microneedling can be performed anywhere you have scarring on your body.
Microneedling is much safer and effective than dermarolling due to its unique vertical needle technology. It has a superior effect on collagen and elastin rejuvenation. Active ingredients are directly supplied to the deeper layers of the skin. Microneedling's multi-speed and adjustable needle depths allows the needles to pierce the skin's layers at 90 degrees and increases the effectiveness of treatments by increasing the absorption of products. This allows for less patient discomfort and downtime.
​
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma)
PRP is the use your own stem cells for healing and dermal repair by drawing your blood and drawing up the platelet rich plasma from the top of the tube and it then can be microneedled back into your skin. When you use PRP you are receiving only the best stem cells in your blood. Stem cells repair your tissue.

FAQ: Can I use exosomes during my microneedling treatment? During and after the treatment we can choose an exosome serum for your individual treatment. Often clients will choose to upgrade to an exosome product called Exo|e. It enhances the treatment with thousands of plant stem cells that communicate with each other to repair the skin. Exosomes are used for similar healing to PRP without a blood draw.
