Microneedling: Uncover Radiant Skin—With or Without PRP
If you’re looking to refresh your complexion, reduce the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and sun damage, microneedling may be the treatment you’ve been searching for. This minimally invasive procedure uses tiny, sterile needles to stimulate the skin’s natural healing process—boosting collagen and elastin for a smoother, more youthful appearance.
At Sage Aesthetics we offer advanced microneedling treatments both with and without platelet-rich plasma (PRP), giving you options based on your unique skin goals and preferences.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling—also known as collagen induction therapy—involves creating controlled micro-injuries to the skin using a device with fine needles. These tiny punctures trigger the body’s wound healing response, which increases collagen and elastin production and helps to repair surface imperfections.
This treatment is safe for all skin types and can improve:
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Acne scars and surgical scars
• Enlarged pores
• Uneven texture and tone
• Stretch marks
• Mild skin laxity
Results develop gradually as your skin regenerates, with continued improvement over several weeks.
Adding PRP: The “Liquid Gold” Upgrade
For enhanced results, many clients choose to add PRP (platelet-rich plasma) to their microneedling session. PRP is derived from your own blood and contains a concentrated mix of growth factors that accelerate healing and stimulate cellular regeneration.
Here’s how it works:
After a small amount of your blood is drawn, it’s spun in a centrifuge to separate the PRP. This golden serum is then either applied topically or injected into the skin immediately after microneedling, allowing it to penetrate deeply through the microchannels created during treatment.
Benefits of Microneedling with PRP:
• Faster healing and less downtime
• Enhanced collagen production
• More noticeable improvement in texture, tone, and firmness
• Reduction in pigmentation and scars
• Ideal for under-eye dark circles, crepey skin, and delicate areas
PRP can be especially beneficial for those with more advanced skin aging or deeper scarring, offering a natural way to boost your body’s healing power.
Microneedling Without PRP: Still Powerful on Its Own
While PRP offers an added level of rejuvenation, microneedling alone is still a highly effective treatment. It’s a great option for younger patients or those looking for a collagen boost without added procedures. For clients who prefer not to use PRP, we pair our microneedling treatments with medical-grade serums, such as SkinCeuticals® Hydrating B5 Gel or BioJuve Living Biome Essentials Serum, to infuse the skin with nutrients during the healing process.
