Micro-needling, is a method of introducing a controlled microneedle into the skin, triggering a release of natural growth factors, new collagen & elastin.
The device produces excellent rejuvenating results of the skin in general and in the treatment of fine lines, acne scars, traumatic scars and enlarged pores.
The device has 3 times more needles than a standard derma roller and can be used for face treatments, neck and body with stretch marks and deep body scars.
This treatments is associated with PRF .
PRF is a concentrate of platelet-rich fibrin derived from whole blood and centrifuged to remove red blood cells.
It has a greater concentration of white cell (for protection and repair), platelet and fibrin (for healing properties), and particularly growth factors (for natural cell stimulation of collagen).
Organically the whole blood is used to stimulate repair and growth in many aspects of medicine. The process does not have side effect because it uses your components.
The procedure consists in taking a sample of your blood. This is then spun in a centrifuge to a very specific speed, to extract the correct portion of cells.
This is either injected or used in conjunction with micro-needling.
Prior numbing with a topical anaesthetic for 30-45minutes makes the procedure more comfortable.
The actual procedure takes approximately 30 minutes.
A pre-consultation is required before starting the treatment.
The treatment begins by taking a small sample of your blood. This blood is then processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, creating PRF. Meanwhile, a microneedling device is used to create tiny, controlled micro-channels in the skin. The PRF is then applied to the treated areas, where it is absorbed through these channels. The PRF works to accelerate the skin’s natural healing process, boosting collagen production and improving skin texture over time.
Micro-needling with PRF is a versatile treatment that can be used to improve the appearance of various areas of the face and body. Some of the most common areas treated include:
Micro-needling with PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) involves using a device with tiny needles to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture. PRF, derived from your own blood, enhances healing and rejuvenation.
This treatment helps reduce fine lines, acne scars, enlarged pores, and stretch marks by encouraging natural cell repair and collagen production, leading to smoother, healthier skin.
PRF is created by drawing a small amount of blood from you, which is then spun in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets and growth factors. This concentrate is applied to the skin during the micro-needling session to enhance healing.
Numbing cream is applied to the treatment area for 30-45 minutes before the procedure to minimize discomfort. Most patients experience only mild discomfort during the procedure.
The treatment itself takes about 30 minutes. While there may be slight redness and swelling after, these usually subside within a couple of days, and recovery time is minimal, allowing you to return to your normal activities.
