How PRP Microneedling Facial Works
The Skin Microneedling Pen creates thousands of micro-channels that stimulate your body’s natural wound healing process. This rejuvenates your skin from the inside out supporting cellular turnover and collagen synthesis. The result is effective remodeling skin tissue for healthier looking skin. Combining the Skin Pen micro needling treatment with PRP and Hyaluronic Acid further aid in the rejuvenation process by stimulating growth signals and hydrating skin.

What is The Down-Time After a PRP Microneedling Facial?
We ask that you do not wash your skin for at least 4 hours after the treatment to allow the PRP to work on the skin. Your skin may be sensitive after the facial for 48-72 hours. It is recommended to avoid sun and makeup during this time. Only a clean light moisturizer is recommended for 24-36 hours after the treatment.
Not A One-And-Done Magical Trick
The PRP micro needling facial is a procedure that stimulates natural, collagen synthesis, skin rejuvenation and cellular turnover. Although every person is different, a series of 3-4 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart is recommended to achieve optimal results. The skin needs consistent treatments to support regeneration and renewal.
Are All Microneedling Pens Created Equally?
No. The Skin Pen is the first FDA approved microneedling device on the market. Not all devices allow for consistent needle depth for precise micro-abrasions to the dermis. (skin) This means not all pens will have the same efficacy with each treatment.
