Microneedling & PRP Microneedling
At Bella Medici Medical Spa, Microneedling and PRP Microneedling (also known as the “Vampire Facial”) are advanced collagen-inducing treatments designed to rejuvenate your skin from within. These minimally invasive procedures use precision microneedles—and in PRP Microneedling, your own platelet-rich plasma—to improve texture, tone, and firmness. Together, they help smooth fine lines, reduce scars, and restore youthful radiance naturally with minimal downtime.
Microneedling uses a medical-grade device equipped with ultra-fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These microchannels trigger your body’s natural healing response, stimulating collagen and elastin production. Over time, skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more evenly toned.
PRP Microneedling takes this rejuvenation a step further by incorporating Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)—derived from your own blood. PRP is rich in growth factors that accelerate healing, boost collagen production, and enhance overall results. When applied during microneedling, PRP penetrates deep into the skin for amplified regeneration and glowing, healthy skin.
These treatments are safe, effective, and highly customizable for various concerns, skin types, and ages.
How Microneedling & PRP Microneedling Work
The procedure begins with a consultation and gentle cleansing of the skin.
- Microneedling: A handheld device glides across the skin, creating microscopic punctures that stimulate new collagen and elastin production.
- PRP Preparation (for PRP Microneedling): A small amount of your blood is drawn and processed in a centrifuge to isolate platelet-rich plasma.
- PRP Infusion: The PRP is applied topically or infused into the skin through microneedling channels, allowing growth factors to penetrate deeply.
The treatment takes 45–60 minutes and is performed with a topical numbing cream for comfort. You may experience mild redness for 24–48 hours, similar to a light sunburn. Results appear gradually as collagen rebuilds, with continued improvement for several weeks.
