Arvada Microneedling and PRP Facials

WHAT IS Microneedling?

With the use of tiny needles, microneedling encourages new collagen and elastin growth. Collagen is one of the main building blocks in our skin and keeps our skin from sagging and gives us that plump, youthful look. Elastin gives us elasticity in our skin--and when we lose it, contributes to sagging as well.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

By encouraging collagen and elastin production, we can reduce the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, laugh lines, crow's feet, and sun damage to name a few.

What is PRP Microneedling? AKA Vampire facial

On top of the microneedling, we can add PRP to the process, which expedites the healing process of tissues as well as produce more collagen and elastin. PRP involves using the patient's own blood, which is then spun using a centrifuge to isolate plasma and platelets. This is where the body's own proteins and growth factors activate cell migration, ultimately stimulating the body to make more collagen and elastin.

WHAT DOES it FEEL LIKE?

The entire process takes about 1 hour. We start by applying numbing cream to your face. Patients report a pinching feeling and feels different for each person.

how many treatments will I need?

While results will vary based on needle penetration and overall skin health, it is recommended to have 3-6 treatments spaced about 4 weeks apart to stimulate and maintain collagen production.
