Rejuvenate Your Skin with the Ultimate Duo
Microneedling and Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) are two powerful treatments on their own, but when combined, they create a synergistic effect that takes skin rejuvenation to the next level. At Awaken Aesthetics, this dynamic duo stimulates collagen production, enhances skin texture, and addresses a variety of skin concerns. Here’s why this combination is worth considering.

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses a device with tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production.

Benefits of Microneedling:

• Reduces fine lines and wrinkles.
• Minimizes acne scars and hyperpigmentation.
• Improves overall skin texture and tone.
• Enhances absorption of skincare products.

What is PRP?

Platelet-Rich Plasma is derived from your own blood and is rich in growth factors that promote healing and tissue regeneration. During a PRP treatment, your blood is drawn, spun in a centrifuge to isolate the plasma, and then applied to the skin.

Benefits of PRP:

• Accelerates healing and boosts collagen production.
• Improves skin elasticity and hydration.
• Reduces the appearance of scars and pigmentation.

Why Combine Microneedling with PRP?

The combination of microneedling and PRP amplifies the benefits of each treatment. Here’s how:

1. Enhanced Healing: Microneedling creates microchannels that allow PRP to penetrate deeper into the skin.
2. Boosted Collagen Production: The growth factors in PRP supercharge the skin’s healing response, resulting in faster and more dramatic improvements.
3. Reduced Downtime: PRP minimizes redness and speeds up recovery after microneedling.
4. Long-Lasting Results: The combined treatment stimulates ongoing collagen production for months after the procedure.

What to Expect During the Treatment

1. Consultation: Your provider will assess your skin concerns and determine if this combination is right for you.
2. Microneedling Session: A numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort, and the microneedling device is used to treat the targeted areas.
3. PRP Application: The PRP is applied immediately after microneedling, allowing it to deeply penetrate the skin.

Most sessions take about an hour, and a series of treatments is recommended for optimal results.

Who Can Benefit from Microneedling with PRP?

This treatment is ideal for individuals looking to:

• Address fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
• Improve skin tone and texture.
• Rejuvenate dull, tired-looking skin.
