Microneedling with PRP at The Medical Clinic NYC, Manhattan Times Square

Microneedling with PRP is a treatment that can help you achieve the beautiful, healthy skin you desire. Microneedling is a technique used at The Medical Clinic NYC Medspa + Wellness; Medical director Dr. Nicolas Batty at 393 W 49th street TH 1E New York NY 10019 and email at info@icrmc.org in which we use a device to help resurface your skin. Microneedling involves using tiny needles to stimulate your skin to increase blood flow and the production of new collagen, allowing for increased cell regeneration. Microneedling treatments are often combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), which increases the effectiveness of your therapy and reduces healing time.

Facial wrinkles | Acne scarring | Signs of aging

 

The Medical Clinic NYC clients can now combat the signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin texture, and facial scars and spots using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. This treatment combines an already powerfully effective facial (micro needling) with a procedure that uses naturally occurring platelets in your own blood to stimulate healing and regrowth.

What Is Microneedling With PRP?

Micro needling, sometimes also called collagen induction therapy, is a type of facial used to combat the signs of aging. It involves the use of very fine needles to prick the skin to stimulate the production of collagen. PRP therapy is used to treat certain injuries, medical conditions, and cosmetic concerns, including wrinkles, acne scars, and signs of aging. Microneedling (also called skin needling, collagen induction therapy (CIT), or percutaneous collagen induction (PCI)) is a minimally invasive, skin rejuvenation procedure. By making micro-injury to the skin at strategic depths and spacing, it sparks a strong process of skin repair. However, it’s effectiveness is kicked into overdrive when it’s combined with powerful healing factors in our blood, called Platelet Rich Plasma or PRP. Specifically, PRP is renowned for its skin healing ability. When used on the face for cosmetic purposes, it offers a whole host of skin rejuvenating benefits. Specifically, PRP Microneedles is an excellent treatment for overall skin renewal, including imparting a healthy glow, diminishing enlarged pores and fine lines, as well as smoothing out acne scars, and stretch marks.

What is PRP?

PRP is a concentrated solution of platelets and growth factors that are obtained from the patient’s own blood. Platelets are responsible for clotting and wound healing, and they also contain growth factors that stimulate cell growth and regeneration. PRP is commonly used in sports medicine to promote tissue healing and reduce inflammation, and it’s also used in cosmetic treatments to improve skin texture, reduce wrinkles, and enhance skin tone. Platelet Rich Plasma is a growth factor found in the blood that’s rich in proteins and works to heal skin from injury. Specifically, PRP works as follows:

  • Stem cells respond to micro-injury on the skin by stimulating the body’s repair mechanism, which causes cells to generate new tissue
  • Blood vessels form (or “neovascularization”) to increase blood flow to the skin
  • Cellular turnover generates skin renewal
  • Increased collagen production combats skin aging.

How Does Microneedling with PRP Work? Why Combine PRP and Microneedling?

During treatment, a small amount of blood is taken and the protein-rich PRP material is extracted with a centrifuge. Using a microneedling pen, our medical estheticians create multiple micro-punctures along the face at consistent spacing and depth. Not only does this micro-injury spark a strong process of skin renewal, but it also creates channels that direct and drive the PRP growth factors into the skin. As a result, it sparks skin renewal and collagen production deep within the skin.

How does PRP facial microneedling work?

PRP facial microneedling combines the benefits of microneedling with the regenerative properties of PRP. The microneedling device creates small punctures in the skin that trigger the body’s natural healing response and stimulate collagen production. The application of PRP enhances this healing process by providing the skin with additional growth factors and promoting tissue regeneration.

What to Expect with a PRP Facial

During micro needling with PRP – a PRP facial – your blood will be drawn and processed to obtain a PRP solution naturally high in growth factors and healing potential. Platelets are small, solid parts of your blood that help the blood to clot and stimulate new cell growth. Platelets are obtained by drawing some of your own blood, spinning it in a centrifuge to separate the platelets from the rest of the blood, which results in a concentrated solution of platelets. This solution is then introduced into your skin at the site you’re looking to heal to supercharge cellular turnover. Because your own blood is applied to your face in this procedure, it is sometimes called a “vampire facial.” Contact us at The Medical Clinic NYC Medspa + Wellness; Medical director Dr. Nicolas Batty at 393 W 49th street TH 1E New York NY 10019 and email at info@icrmc.org

PRP for Wrinkles / Skin Rejuvenation

Platelet Rich Plasma is proven to diminish signs of aging and restore a healthy glow to dull skin. Microneedling with PRP is effective on fine lines and wrinkles on many areas of the face. These include around the eyes (crow’s feet) and nose (bunny lines), lines at the corners of the mouth (frown and smile lines), as well as lines on the horizontal and vertical (the elevens) lines on the forehead.

PRP for Photodamaged Skin / Hyperpigmentation / Age Spots

Microneedling with PRP promotes skin renewal to even out skin tone. As a result, the treatment will cause discoloration to fade. Specifically, it will work on damage caused by photoaging, melasma or other skin conditions that can cause dark spots.

PRP for Acne Scars / Burns / Skin Texture Renewal

Microneedling with PRP will repair underlying collagen to improve skin’s texture. Specifically, it can heal all types of acne scars, including ice pick scars, boxcar scars, atrophic scars and rolling scars. Further, any scarring caused by trauma or burns can be diminished from PRP therapy. A series of treatments is recommended for best results.

Does PRP Have Other Cosmetic Applications?

It’s important to note that PRP is highly effective for other areas of the body as well, including PRP for hair loss (stimulating hair follicles) and stretch marks. Microneedling with PRP also works for the décolleté and the neck.

How to Prepare Platelet Rich Plasma: What to Expect from Microneedling with PRP?

In a nutshell, PRP technique includes extracting and then, microneedling your own blood back into the skin, to promote skin regeneration. The procedure is quite simple and takes anywhere from 60-90 minutes.

  1. The procedure starts with a blood draw from your arm. The platelets are extracted from the blood using a superior centrifuge to isolate the protein-rich growth factors.
  2. While the platelets are being extracted, a numbing cream is applied to the face.
  3. Then, an esthetician will spread the PRP serum over the surface of the skin. Our microneedling device is a hand-held skin needling pen, that makes use of 12 super fine needles. It’s a multi-speed, adjustable device that allows controlled depth, spacing and frequency of punctures, which encourages absorption of the PRP deep within the skin.  The process opens thousands of portals for PRP. The body reacts to the treated cells as it would a wound. Thus, it repairs the tissue and rejuvenates the skin.

Microneedling with PRP vs. Vampire Facelift vs. Vampire Facial: What’s the Difference?

All three treatments work to rejuvenate the skin and make use of PRP. They differ as follows:

  1. Microneedling with PRP: A hand-held device is used to penetrate the PRP into the skin. The procedure does not include injection of PRP into the skin.
  2. The Vampire Facial: Includes PRP injection, along with Microneedling with PRP.
  3. The Vampire Facelift: Includes both injection and Microneedling with plasma. The addition of a cosmetic filler works to reverse volume loss and restore mature skin.
