Microneedling with PRP at AIMS AESTHETICS

Revitalize Your Skin with Microneedling and PRP in Carmichael, CA

At AIMS AESTHETICS in Carmichael, CA, microneedling combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) offers a powerful solution for achieving radiant, youthful skin. This minimally invasive treatment stimulates collagen production and enhances skin rejuvenation, addressing concerns like fine lines, scars, and uneven tone.

What Is Microneedling with PRP?

Microneedling is a procedure that creates micro-injuries in the skin using fine needles, triggering the body’s natural healing response to produce collagen and elastin. PRP, derived from your own blood, is rich in growth factors that enhance the skin’s repair process. When applied after microneedling, PRP penetrates deeply into the skin, amplifying its regenerative effects. This combination treatment improves skin texture, reduces wrinkles, and fades scars, delivering long-lasting results with minimal downtime.

How Does Microneedling with PRP Work?

Microneedling with PRP, often called the “vampire facial,” is a cutting-edge skincare treatment that combines the precision of microneedling with the rejuvenating power of platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The process begins with a microneedling device creating tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface, which stimulates your body’s natural healing response. Next, PRP, derived from a small sample of your own blood, is applied to the skin. Packed with growth factors, PRP penetrates deeply through the microchannels created by the microneedling, supercharging your skin’s ability to regenerate. This dual-action technique boosts collagen production, accelerates cellular turnover, and promotes smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin—naturally harnessing your body’s own potential to heal and rejuvenate.

What to Expect During Your Microneedling Treatment

Your microneedling session will begin with a thorough cleansing of the skin, followed by the application of a numbing cream to ensure comfort. Once the skin is prepped, a specialized microneedling device is used to create tiny micro-injuries, which stimulate collagen production and enhance skin rejuvenation. PRP, derived from your own blood, is then applied to the treated areas to accelerate healing and maximize results. The entire procedure typically takes about 60 minutes, and while mild redness and sensitivity are expected immediately after, most patients find the experience tolerable with minimal downtime.
