Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment designed to improve skin texture, tone, and overall quality by stimulating the skin’s natural renewal process. It may be considered by patients looking to address concerns such as uneven texture, visible signs of aging, or certain types of scarring without undergoing surgery.
At Berger Beauty, Dr. Saul R. Berger brings more than 25 years of experience in plastic and cosmetic surgery to the practice’s approach to facial rejuvenation. His broad background in aesthetic care helps guide personalized treatment planning based on each patient’s skin concerns, goals, and preferences.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling is an in-office treatment that uses a specialized device to create many tiny openings, or microchannels, in the skin. These controlled micro-injuries stimulate the skin’s natural healing response and support collagen production, which can help improve skin texture and appearance.
The goal is smoother, more even-looking skin with gradual improvement as the skin responds to treatment. Microneedling may be used to address concerns such as uneven skin texture, signs of aging, and certain types of scars.
What Is PRP?
PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. It is prepared from a small sample of the patient’s own blood, which is centrifuged to separate platelets from plasma and concentrate them.
PRP contains platelet-derived growth factors and may be used as part of certain aesthetic treatments, including in combination with microneedling. Because it is prepared from the patient’s own blood, the process can typically be completed during the treatment visit.
How Can Microneedling And PRP Be Combined?
PRP may be applied to the skin in conjunction with microneedling. The microchannels created during treatment can help deliver the prepared PRP to the treated skin, combining microneedling’s controlled skin renewal process with platelet-rich plasma as part of the rejuvenation approach.
Depending on the treatment plan, PRP may also be used in other ways. Whether combining PRP with microneedling is appropriate depends on the patient’s skin concerns and aesthetic goals.
Is Microneedling Right For You?
Microneedling may be a good option for adults who want to improve uneven skin texture, visible signs of aging, enlarged-looking pores, or certain types of scarring without surgery. A consultation at Berger Beauty can help determine whether microneedling, with or without PRP, is appropriate for your skin concerns and goals.
