Is Microneedling with PRP Painful?

The microneedling with PRP procedure involves drawing blood and lightly pricking with small needles. To make this treatment as comfortable as possible, Chopra Cosmetic Surgery can apply a topical numbing gel to help desensitize the skin to receive the treatment and will provide a cold ice pack or over-the-counter medication to help ease any discomfort felt afterward. The treatment may result in mild swelling or tenderness, though these effects should resolve shortly, within hours or days after the procedure.

How Many Appointments Will I Need?

The appointments necessary to complete a full microneedling with PRP treatment will vary based on individual patient needs, health, and aesthetic goals. Microneedling with PRP is a gradual restorative process requiring several sessions to produce the desired results. The frequency of these sessions will depend on the length of the patient’s natural healing cycle and the extent of treatment required.

How Long Until I See Results?

Microneedling with PRP is a gradually restorative process that yields results over time. This is because the skin requires time between sessions to engage in its natural healing process and generate new skin cells. While every patient’s healing timeline is different, it may take three to four sessions on average to see visible improvement.

What is Microneedling with PRP?

Microneedling with PRP is a procedure that aims to use a patient’s blood to trick the body into healing and repairing itself. The blood is extracted and then undergoes a spinning process to separate the plasma, which is then injected back by puncturing the skin using a micro-needle. The plasma promotes a stronger repair response to stimulate collagen production, resulting in a more effective treatment and visibly improved skin.

What’s the First Step?

Dr. Chopra’s team will meet with you to review your medical history and any skin concerns you may have. He will recommend whether microneedling with PRP can benefit your unique skin conditions or provide a range of options to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

What to Expect on the Day of Microneedling with PRP Treatment

In preparation for your microneedling and PRP treatment, a licensed and certified aesthetician or technician will draw your blood and place it in a centrifuge to separate out the platelets, which will then be purified.

You may be given protective eyewear to wear for the duration of your procedure, and your skin will be cleansed and prepped. Your master aesthetician will then guide the microneedling device over your targeted areas of concern, and the platelet solution will be applied to the skin. Depending on the extent of the treatment, this procedure may last anywhere from thirty minutes to an hour. You may return home the same day.

Microneedling with PRP Recovery

Microneedling with PRP requires little downtime for recovery. However, your skin may feel tender, sensitive, and/or swollen following the procedure, so Dr. Chopra advises applying an ice pack or mitigating any discomfort with over-the-counter pain medication. Any adverse effects experienced after the treatment are usually mild and temporary.

Any redness or swelling may take 3-4 days to subside. Patients may need only 1 day before resuming regular physical activity.

This location is amazing! Dr.Chopra and his team take the time to listen to my concerns, walk me through solutions and still manage to make me feel good about myself but more importantly: they don’t try and UP sale me! They offer real solutions, they do not just throw all procedures at me and they don’t play off my insecurities to get more $$ out of me. If you want to look better AND feel better about your procedure – come here! You should feel just as confident, if not more confident when you leave👍
