Micro-needling/Collagen P.I.N.: Micro-needling is also referred to as PCIT, Percutaneous Collagen Induction Therapy. PCIT is a method of inducing controlled injury into the skins epidermal and dermal junction, which induces growth factors, new collagen and elastin. This process causes much less damage to the epidermis than dermal rolling, lasers or any other ablative treatment. Thus, protecting the skins cell growth making for quicker healing and higher rates of success. Collagen P.I.N. can safely treat all skin types to address a variety of concerns. This procedure is effective for plumping of fine lines, wrinkles, scars, acne scars, diminishing poor size, improving skin texture, evening out skin tone, stretch marks, hair restoration, and more! Most areas can be treated including face, neck, décolletage, hands, arms, legs, abdomen, and back. Typically, a series of 3-6 treatments is recommended, depending upon your area of correction and concern.
PRP: Platelet-Rich Plasma is concentrated platelets and white blood cells derived from your own blood. Prior to your procedure, a small sample of blood is drawn. The blood is placed in a specialized centrifuge that will separate and concentrate your body's own natural healing agents, in less than 20 minutes. The Platelet-Rich Plasma(PRP) is then injected into the freshly micro-needled areas of concern. The platelets activate and release growth factors, which in turn trigger your body to begin the healing process. This is a great way to jump start the rejuvenating effects of micro-needling! PRP can also be used for hair restoration, either topically after micro-needling or injected into the scalp.
