Microneedling with PRP

Facial rejuvenation is among the most popular cosmetic modality in current times. A lot of people opt for the procedure as it provides them with an effective and minimally invasive option that has long-lasting results with minimal downtime.
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure wherein a device is used containing fine needles. The skin is punctured at various depths using the needle so that a controlled skin injury is created. These punctures create channels leading to stimulation of neovascularization and collagen formation so that these microscopic wounds can be filled.
There are various Microneedling devices with different needle sizes, and the outcome of the procedure depends on the device used, the technique adapted, the depth to which the needle is penetrated, and the frequency of penetration. The needle creates pores in the dermis, thereby leading to stimulation of release of growth factors and cytokines.
These growth factors and cytokines stimulate collagen and neovascularization. A time span of around 4 to 6 weeks is kept between two needling sessions. There are minimal side effects to the procedure, and thus it can be used safely in most patients.
However, those who have a history of keloid or hypertrophic scarring or herpes simplex virus should refrain from the procedure. Some contraindications to the procedure include clotting disorders, immunosuppression, collagen vascular disease, and scleroderma, among others.
As is apparent from the description of the procedure, it is vital that precision is seen in the application of needles, or things can go quite wrong.
