Automated Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy or CIT, is an innovative way to improve the appearance of your skin. It stimulates your body to produce more collagen and elastin, which soften fine wrinkles in a gradual and natural way, but Microneedling with PRP Enhancement can do even more than help you look younger.
Your Microneedling with PRP Enhancement Treatment
A topical anesthetic is applied to your skin, and a small amount of your blood is drawn, just as when you have blood drawn for a blood test. The sample is spun in a centrifuge to produce the Platelet-Rich Plasma, separating this “liquid gold” from the red and white blood cells. The microneedling device contains tiny needles that create controlled micro-injuries to the skin, which stimulate the skin to repair itself by producing more collagen and elastin. The micro-injuries also create superficial micro-channels for the topical PRP to be easily absorbed, as the PRP is applied during and immediately after the microneedling treatment. The topical anesthetic makes the procedure more comfortable. The treatment is done every four to six weeks, usually for a series of six treatments.
