Microneedling with PRP for Men in Spring, TX

Chiseled offers microneedling, a procedure that punctures small holes in the skin on your neck, face, or torso to stimulate skin restoration. For an added benefit, we may apply your own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to the same region to assist in healing and new tissue growth. When performed together, both of these treatments can help decrease the appearance of scars, wrinkles, fine lines, sun spots, and other skin issues. The feel of your skin can be greatly improved to appear smoother and younger. If you'd like to find out more about the microneedling with PRP, schedule a private consultation with leading dermatologist Dr. Melissa Chiang or plastic surgeon Dr. Younghoon Cho at Chiseled in Spring, TX.

PRP therapy has been used in the medical and cosmetic field for years because it's a safe and natural method for rejuvenating the skin and body. Blood is made of four main components: red and white blood cells, platelets, and plasma. When these components are separated in a centrifuge, the clear, nutrient-dense fluid (plasma) can be used to help restore the health of the skin. Plasma is full of antibodies and essential proteins, such as albumin and fibrinogen, that aid in healing and cellular revitalization.

Microneedling is a leading option since it can work to rejuvenate the complexion in only a single treatment. Through the addition of platelet-rich plasma, your improvements can be even more magnified. A number of people at Chiseled enjoy a range of benefits from microneedling with platelet-rich plasma, such as:

• PRP boosts collagen and elastin production down below the skin for advanced outcomes
• Reduced recovery period compared to microneedling alone
• Results persist for a minimum of one year
• Address multiple concerns at a time, such as wrinkles and fine lines, skin texture problems, brown spots, uneven skin tone, acne scars, enlarged pores, and others
• Suitable for the majority of types of skin

Great candidates for microneedling with PRP are men who are seeking to improve the appearance and texture of their skin. Uneven skin tone, dry skin, age spots, lax skin, wrinkles, and acne scars are dermal conditions that could benefit from this therapeutic treatment. Microneedling with PRP can also be employed to fight a rough skin texture or hyperpigmentation caused by sun damage.

Before the microneedling part of your session, someone from our medical staff will draw your blood for PRP collection. They'll place the drawn blood in a centrifuge to separate the nutrient-dense plasma. For your microneedling treatment, Chiseled uses modern technology to make microscopic holes in your skin. The small needles used will not harm your skin but will instead help to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, encouraging tissue renewal. When the microneedling is done, we'll put the PRP serum on your skin and let it sink in. Once the PRP has been fully absorbed, we'll cleanse your skin, and you'll be free to return to your usual routine.

After your microneedling with PRP treatment, your skin will likely appear red, and you may experience some mild swelling and inflammation. These symptoms are normal and can be eased with over-the-counter pain medication. We recommend that patients avoid using makeup, exfoliation sponges, and harsh facial cleansers and that they avoid swimming in chlorinated or saltwater pools for about three days. Activities like this can expose the skin to strong chemicals and bacteria, which may lead to adverse side effects. You should also minimize exposure to the sun and use protective measures when planning to be outside. Patients typically notice final results after several weeks as the skin works to repair and heal itself.

This microneedling procedure can benefit patients seeking to restore the look and feel of their skin. It can help to make your skin look younger, smoother, firmer, and luminous. We invite you to find out more about this treatment by speaking to a skilled member of our skin care team or by setting up an appointment at Chiseled in Spring, TX near The Woodlands.
