Before & After: What PRP-Enhanced Microneedling Can Achieve

PRP Combination with Microneedling

Clients who receive Vampire Facial (combine microneedling with PRP) typically experience quicker recovery, deeper skin hydration, and visibly smoother, firmer skin. This treatment is especially beneficial for aging skin, acne scarring, or damaged areas such as post-pregnancy stretch marks.

What PRP Is and Why It Matters

PRP, or Platelet-Rich Plasma, is derived from your own blood and packed with healing factors. It’s a cornerstone of treatments like the Vampire Facial and has gained popularity for its ability to regenerate skin and hair. Combining it with microneedling enhances absorption and speeds recovery.

Why PRP and Microneedling Work Better Together

Microneedling opens the door for PRP to reach deeper skin layers, making the combination more effective than either treatment alone. It accelerates cellular repair, reduces inflammation, and promotes smoother, healthier skin—ideal for acne scarring, aging, and stretch mark treatment.

Complementary Treatments for Enhanced Results

Pair this combo with chemical peels for improved skin tone, or use it alongside skin tightening for sagging areas. You can also explore other PRP-based treatments like PRP for hair loss.

Alternative Options to Consider

If you’re not a candidate for PRP or prefer a different route, explore standalone microneedling, Fraxel laser, or laser resurfacing. Each offers unique benefits based on your skin goals.
