What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling has been around since the ’90s but has been gaining popularity recently thanks to new technologies, like SkinPen, and new products like PRP serum. Patients love this rejuvenating option because it’s minimally invasive, requires little downtime, and offers impressive benefits across various skin conditions.

The treatment creates controlled micro-injuries with tiny needles to stimulate collagen production as part of the healing process. The benefits of this therapy (also sometimes referred to as collagen induction therapy) include an increase in natural collagen production and a reduction in the appearance of scars, fine lines and wrinkles. It can also produce impressive results in evening out tone, reducing scars, and improving other minor skin issues.

PRP Microneedling

As we age, collagen production begins to slow naturally, which causes a loss of elasticity, sagging, and wrinkles to form. In addition, as we age, there is increased sun and environmental pollution exposure, which can make the pores appear enlarged. These changes can make us look older than we feel. However, thanks to new technology in the SkinPen and PRP serum, you can turn back the hands of time and keep your youthful glow.

We use a tool called the SkinPen, the first microneedling device cleared by the FDA. SkinPen uses revolutionary technology to create micro-injuries that stimulate collagen production, enhancing the skin’s youthful appearance.

Essentially, these micro-injuries cause minor, controlled stress. As the area heals, collagen increases, which also improves texture and tone. The increase of collagen helps to fade the look of scars, plump the skin enough to diminish the appearance of fine lines, and even out tone and texture. SkinPen is commonly used on the face, and it can also be used to treat the neck and chest.

At Coastal, we combine the impressive effects of the SkinPen with PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma), which is a nonsurgical facial rejuvenation method that uses your growth factors to stimulate healing and repair.

Natural. Conservative. Beauty.

PRP Microneedling: What Is PRP Serum?

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) is a regenerative treatment that uses your body’s own healing properties for rejuvenation. The procedure involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, and then injecting or applying this powerful serum back into the treated area. PRP is considered safe for all skin types and is used to treat various concerns naturally.

PRP provides an excellent alternative to many surgical or more invasive treatments while delivering outstanding, natural-looking results. However, depending on your specific needs, you might need a customized treatment plan. Our talented medical staff will customize a treatment based on your desired results.

The best patients for this treatment are in good general health and have one or more of the following concerns: fine lines or wrinkles, loss of volume or elasticity, uneven skin tone or texture, acne scars, or signs of aging on the face, neck, or hands. PRP can also be combined with microneedling for enhanced results.

Although PRP can provide impressive results for rejuvenation and texture improvement, you may need a more invasive treatment if you have moderate to severe skin laxity that droops or hangs, or very deep wrinkles. We want you to have the best results possible, and that is why we recommend a consultation before booking.

Am I a Good Candidate for Microneedling?

The best candidates for microneedling are not currently pregnant and haven’t recently undergone radiation treatments. In addition, they are non-smokers and in good general health with no preexisting skin issues such as eczema or psoriasis. Ideal candidates also have realistic expectations about the results of this procedure, can commit to at least three sessions for optimal results, and will intentionally allow the time and care needed to heal between sessions.

Benefits of Microneedling for Your Skin

SkinPen is a great way to freshen up your complexion and create that lit-from-within glow while improving texture. It also helps reduce the size of the pores, improve the look of age spots, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles. In addition, it can soften scars (even acne scars). Many patients report a youthful glow and restored fullness to their skin after the healing process is complete. It can also help soften stretch marks.

Microneedling vs. RF Microneedling and Other Skin Treatments

Traditional SkinPen microneedling is a great fit for texture, fine lines, and mild to moderate acne scarring. If you also want skin tightening, RF microneedling adds radiofrequency energy for deeper collagen remodeling; learn how long RF microneedling takes to work. For resurfacing, we also offer Opus Plasma-RF and chemical peels. Not sure which is right for you? Our essential guide to skin resurfacing explains the options, and we’ll recommend a plan at your consultation.

This procedure is used most commonly on the neck and face. It targets the following concerns. If you think it is for you, give us a call to book your consultation.

  • Acne scars
  • Age spots
  • Fine lines and wrinkles

All cosmetic procedures have the potential for adverse reactions; however, those odds are minimal. The most common side effect reported after treatment is minor skin irritation immediately following the procedure. In addition, some patients experience redness on the treated areas for a few days or a feeling of sensitivity. However, this is short-lived and does not occur in all patients.

There isn't much downtime to recover. Some patients with sensitive skin experience minor irritation in the first few days, typical of the healing process. The majority of our patients can return to work the same day as treatment. It's best to give the area a little TLC in the days following this treatment. Wear SPF on the treated areas and avoid extreme sun exposure.

The results from your session will be visible within a few weeks of your first session. To obtain the maximum benefits, we will design an optimal treatment plan. Usually, patients book three sessions to achieve their desired results, but every patient is different. We can help you determine your best treatment plan, as well as maintenance sessions to help you maintain your new look.

Even just one treatment will make a noticeable difference.
