Are you looking to reduce the appearance of acne scars or wrinkles? If so, microneedling may be the solution for you! At Advanced Wellness Aesthetics in Marlboro, NJ, we offer microneedling as well as microneedling with PRP to treat these skin concerns.
How Does Microneedling Work?
Microneedling uses small needles to prick tiny holes in the skin, also known as micro-injuries. This stimulates the body's natural healing process and causes the body to produce new collagen and elastin, which heals the wounds in the upper layers of your skin causing healthier cells to grow. This helps reduce the appearance of acne scars and wrinkles.
How Does Microneedling with PRP Work?
There is also microneedling with PRP, which takes this treatment one step further. Microneedling with PRP includes the application of PRP (platelet-rich-plasma) to the treated area following microneedling. PRP is derived from your own blood and accelerates results by using your body's own healing system. Your doctor will draw a sample of your blood and separate the PRP from your blood by spinning it in a centrifuge. It will then be applied to the treated area to help rejuvenate the skin.
While microneedling will help to reduce the appearance of acne scars and wrinkles, it is also effective in treating other skin concerns, including hyperpigmentation. Microneedling will leave you with a more evenly-toned, radiant, and younger-looking skin complexion.
