MICRO-NEEDLING WITH PRP
Micro-needling is a cosmetic procedure that pricks the skin using a roller with fine needles. This system stimulates the development of extra collagen, which can help heal scars and decrease signs of ageing. Plasma-rich platelet (PRP) micro-needling uses 10ml – 15ml of blood from the person undergoing the procedure to rejuvenate the skin.
WHAT IS MICRONEEDLING WITH PRP ?
Microneedling may be more effective with the addition of PRP. Microneedling with PRP is a cosmetic treatment that stimulates collagen production by rolling fine needles over the skin and applying platelets, which are one of the components of blood. The addition of PRP from the blood may make micro-needling more effective. The liquid in blood is plasma, while platelets are solid. Platelets help blood clot, so they are vital for healing wounds and injuries. PRP is plasma in which the concentration of platelets is higher than that of other components of the blood.

Doctor will uses 10ml – 15ml blood and then use a spinning tool called a centrifuging machine to separate the PRP from the rest of the blood. PRP contains proteins, including growth factors and cytokines. These proteins help skin tissue repair itself.
Next, a Doctor would use a microneedling method by creating tiny holes in the surface of the skin. To promote collagen development and cell replication, they will then add PRP to these tiny holes.

According to a 2019 review of PRP micro needling for acne scars, various studies showed that the addition of PRP to micro needling:
The number of sessions that a person receives will vary, one might need several sessions to see the improvement. Larger scars or burns may take longer to respond to treatment. If people are receiving PRP micro needling treatment for signs of aging skin, they may wish to have repeat treatments.
Micro needling with PRP can also take a few weeks to show results, as the body takes time to produce collagen. As a result, people can expect to keep seeing improvements in their skin in the weeks following their treatment. People with acne scars may notice a gradual improvement in the skin in less than 9 months. People usually respond well to micro needling treatments and require only minimal recovery time.
According to the American Academy of Dermatology, micro needling “is safe for all skin colors.”
