What is microneedling?

Microneedling applies tiny sterile needles to puncture the outer layer of your skin in order to stimulate the creation of elastin and collagen. Your skin responds to these micro injuries as a call to repair itself, resulting in smoother, tighter, more even-toned skin. The treatment should be performed by a skin professional to minimize acne scarring, wrinkles and general skin texture.

What’s the buzz about microneedling with PRP?

Microneedling is widely known as a collagen-boosting treatment. But when you pair it with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), the outcome goes from good to amazing! It’s like doing a VIP upgrade on your skin care by harnessing your body’s healing ability to make new cells. It’s not just a trend anymore; it’s a results-driven science. 

What makes PRP microneedling different?

PRP microneedling is an advancement of traditional microneedling treatment. Traditional microneedling uses mechanical stimulation to enhance collagen production, PRP microneedling takes it a step further. PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is drawn from your own blood and centrifugal separation provides platelets with high levels of growth factors. This golden plasma is applied to your skin during the microneedling process, supercharging tissue regeneration. 

In short: it’s microneedling, but smarter, deeper, and more accelerated.

What microneedling with PRP is really used for?

From lessening acne scars to softening wrinkles and improving pigmentation, PRP microneedling is a crowd-pleaser for anyone looking for real change. But it’s not just about your face anymore. PRP microneedling hair therapy is specifically designed for those who are dealing with hair thinning or early baldness. The treatment promotes natural hair growth by injecting PRP into the scalp to stimulate dormant follicles and enhance natural hair growth.

Whether you’re thinking about PRP for face treatment to bring back dull skin or hair PRP therapy to restore your confidence, this treatment is turning out to be a game-changer.

Make sure the provider uses FDA-approved tools and follows medical-grade hygiene protocols. Never compromise on safety for the sake of discounts—your skin deserves better.

Preparation starts even before you walk into the clinic

Before treatment
Avoid blood thinners (aspirin, ibuprofen, etc) for at least 5 days before session.
Avoid alcohol for 24-48 hours prior to treatment.
Stop using harsh skin care products (exfoliants, retinoids, vitamin C serums) for 3 to 5 days before treatment.
Arrive with a clean face or scalp, free from makeup, lotions, or oils
During treatment
The procedure should be relatively painless due to numbing agents.
You may feel slight discomfort during the process.
Follow the comfort protocols provided by your practitioner.
Relax and remain still during the procedure for optimal results.
After treatment
Give your skin time to heal and don’t apply makeup for 24 to 48 hours after the session. 
Do not expose yourself to direct sun for at least 48 hours. Wear sunscreen if you go outdoors.
Do not sweat or perform vigorous activities for 48 hours after your treatment to avoid irritation. 
Gently wash your skin with a mild cleanser, and don’t use anything that might irritate the treated area (harsh products, etc.).
Apply a cooling serum as recommended by your practitioner to aid the healing process.
Do not pick or scratch the treated area even if redness or scabbing occurs.
Follow the aftercare products provided by your clinic like post care kits to ensure best results.

What to expect during the actual appointment?

First, your blood is drawn and processed to extract the PRP. A numbing cream is applied to the treatment area to reduce discomfort. Then comes the microneedling, where the PRP is either microneedle in or injected, depending on the target area. The entire procedure usually takes 45–60 minutes. Expect mild redness and a bit of swelling.

Let’s talk results—because that’s what you’re here for

The benefits are nothing short of impressive. For face PRP treatment, you’ll notice improved skin tone, reduced acne scars, minimized pores, and even a youthful plumpness. 

For those opting for PRP for hair treatment, visible hair regrowth typically starts after the third session, with enhanced thickness and volume. And because it’s your own plasma doing the work, results look incredibly natural.

Are there any side effects?

What’s the recovery time?

Recovery is smoother than you think, whether it’s for your face or hair. Post-treatment downtime is minimal for both. Most clients return to their normal routine the next day. Redness usually resolves itself within 24–48 hours, whether facial or scalp redness. You’ll be warned against sun, intense exercise, and exfoliating products for a few days. Hydration and SPF will become your best friends for optimal healing and results, whether you’re treating your skin or hair.

When do the results start showing?

  • With face PRP treatment with microneedling, some glow can be seen as early as one week, but optimal results typically take 3 to 6 sessions spaced a month apart. 
  • Hair PRP microneedling treatment results are slower but steady. You can expect noticeable regrowth in 3 to 4 months with continued improvement over time.

What to do to enhance the effects?

PRP microneedling is also blended with other procedures such as chemical peels, laser treatment, or hydrafacial. When done under expert supervision, these combinations can amplify your results without extra downtime. 

In a world of filters and instant edits, nothing beats the power of natural healing. PRP microneedling delivers real results—powered by your body’s own biology. Whether you have glowing skin or thicker hair in mind, this treatment addresses both sides of the beauty coin.
