MICRONEEDLING WITH PRP IS THE NEXT BIG TREND IN SKIN CARE!

The skincare specialists at Bingham Memorial Dermatology Center are pleased to offer this state-of-the-art procedure.

Microneedling with PRP combines microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) (concentrated platelets and white blood cells) derived from your own blood. The platelets contain key growth factors that play a significant role in tissue healing and regeneration.

PRP is applied to your face and then the mirconeedling begins. This involves using fine needles to create hundreds of tiny, invisible puncture wounds in the top layer of skin. It stimulates your body’s natural wound healing process, resulting in cell turnover at an accelerated rate, and increased collagen and elastin production, reversing as well as preventing the signs of aging.

False: Yes, it creates smoother skin, but the treatment is also effective in correcting acne marks. The microneedles stimulate collagen production to help with scarring.
