Have you heard of PRP micropen facial rejuvenation?
A PRP micropen facial treatment, also known as PRP therapy for the face, is an anti-aging skin treatment that works by concentrating the healing power and regeneration of the skin through the activation of platelets.
The results of PRP treatment for the face include improved skin texture and tone, a reduced appearance of dark circles under the eyes, a reduction in the appearance of fine lines, and healthy, glowing skin.
We know these results are what almost everyone wants when they look in the mirror. So, what are you waiting for?
In this blog post, we will outline five reasons why you should consider PRP treatment, offered by Dr. Chelsea Gronick in Kelowna.
The PRP micropen facial is safe
When we say PRP, we are referring to platelet-rich plasma. Platelets are cells in the blood that help tissues heal and grow healthy new cells. PRP injections for the face stimulate the body’s collagen production, promoting the growth and regeneration of new tissue. When this happens, it results in the skin being smoothed and tightened.
A PRP micropen facial is safe on all skin types. There are no allergic reactions because your body will not reject your own blood.
We start with a simple blood draw to extract the RPR. Using a PRP micropen, we introduce these growth factors deeper into the dermal layer of the skin. This is where stem cells are activated to grow new tissues, resulting in younger-looking skin.
PRP injections are natural
In a world full of unnatural procedures, the PRP skin treatment is 100% natural. As mentioned above, we utilize your body’s own anti-aging growth factors to stimulate collagen production.
Some fillers can have the effect of looking uneven or unnatural. But with PRP injections, it doesn’t look overdone, and the effects are long-lasting.
No surgery, botox, or fillers required for beautiful, young-looking skin.
The PRP micropen facial treatment is a straightforward procedure
There’s nothing to be nervous about when coming into the office to see me for your first facial treatment. Lay back and relax in our clean and modern rooms while I work my magic.
One microneedle therapy treatment can take years off your face in under an hour. We use the Eclipse Micropen, which is FDA approved. The treatment is most commonly performed on the face but can also be applied to various parts of the body, including the scalp, neck, décolletage, arms, hands, legs, abdomen, and back.
When you receive the microneedling part of the PRP treatment, a topical anesthetic will be applied to your skin. A needle tip containing 12 tiny micro-needles is then attached to the Eclipse Micropen.
Then, a combination of hyaluronic acid and your PRP injections is applied to your skin. In one smooth motion, the pen will be gently pressed against your skin while gliding in a single direction.
Once the treatment area has been fully covered, the PRP treatment is finished.
Cleansing, numbing, and blood draw are performed at the start of the procedure, followed by microneedling, which takes 15-30 minutes.
Micro needle therapy doesn’t hurt
With the use of anesthesia, microneedle therapy is essentially painless. We would compare the feeling of treatment to that of light sandpaper being moved across the skin, or even a simple, yet deep, exfoliation.
The speed of the PRP injection micropen reduces the discomfort in even the most sensitive areas.
It requires zero downtime
This speaks for itself. Some treatments require a lengthy recovery period, often accompanied by bruising. However, with the PRP micropen facial, there is minimal downtime. This means you can continue with your routine immediately, as soon as you leave the office.
You may notice a redness to the face and a tightening of the skin right after your PRP injections and that can last up to 48 hours.
I recommend quality skincare products to help speed up the healing process and to provide moisture to the skin’s surface.
Book a Consultation with Dr. Chelsea
Many patients notice an immediate glow after receiving a PRP micropen facial from me. Additional texture and changes to the skin develop over the following days, with results continuing to improve up to 6 months after the PRP treatment.
To determine if working together is the right fit for you, you can schedule an initial consultation with me. I will review the PRP micropen facial with you and discuss the other benefits of microneedling.
