| Microneedling plus PRP for acne and pore reduction. |
Acne and its resultant scars can have a significant impact on one’s self-esteem and confidence. While there are numerous treatments available, microneedling combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has emerged as a groundbreaking solution. In this blog, we will delve into the transformative power of microneedling and PRP in treating acne and acne scars.
BACK TO SCHOOL SKIN CARE FOR CLEAR SKIN.
Acne occurs when the pores become blocked with oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria, leading to inflammation and blemishes. Unfortunately, severe acne can leave behind unsightly scars, which are often indented or pigmented marks that linger long after the acne has cleared.
THE SCIENCE OF COMBINED TREATMENTS
• MICRONEEDLING.
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, involves using a pen-like device fitted with tiny needles to create controlled microscopic punctures in the skin. This process stimulates the skin’s natural healing response, leading to increased collagen production. Collagen is responsible for maintaining the skin’s strength, elasticity, and smoothness.
Microneedling works wonders for acne treatment by reducing inflammation, unclogging pores, and preventing future breakouts. By creating micro-channels in the skin, it enhances the absorption of topical serums and medications, enabling deeper penetration into the skin layers for improved effectiveness.
One of the most remarkable benefits of microneedling is its ability to treat acne scars. The controlled puncturing of the skin triggers a healing process that stimulates the production of new collagen, which helps to fill in indentations caused by acne scars. Over time, this leads to a smoother and more even skin texture.

• PRP (PLATELET RICH PASMA).
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is derived from the patient’s blood and contains numerous growth factors that promote tissue regeneration and healing. When combined with microneedling, PRP amplifies the rejuvenation process, making the treatment even more effective.
PRP is applied topically or injected into the skin during or after microneedling. This rich concentration of growth factors further boosts collagen production, accelerates healing, and improves the overall texture and tone of the skin. It also helps to minimize pigmentation issues often associated with acne scars, resulting in a more balanced complexion.
BENEFITS OF COMBINED TREATMENTS:
1. Improved acne control and prevention.
2. Reduction in the appearance of acne scars.
3. Enhanced skin texture, smoothness, and firmness.
4. Minimization of hyperpigmentation associated with acne scars.
5. Natural and long-lasting results without the need for invasive procedures.
