What is PRP microneedling?
PRP microneedling is a medical-grade cosmetic procedure that utilizes platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from a small amount of blood drawn from the patient. This plasma has concentrated blood components, including platelets, proteins, and essential growth factors that are crucial for the regeneration of tissue and the growth of cells.
After drawing a sample of your blood, it is processed to separate the red blood cells from plasma, producing platelet-rich plasma that includes concentrated platelets and growth factors. These growth factors stimulate the creation of new skin cells, aid in drawing together collagen and elastin, and enhance natural collagen production.
If the PRP is then administered during a microneedling treatment, the minor channels created in your skin allow the solution to permeate more deeply and produce optimal results. Working in concert with a microneedling treatment means the vampire facial is a potent instrument to promote skin rejuvenation and restore your smoother, healthier-looking radiant complexion.

How Does PRP microneedling Work?
PRP microneedling combines the regenerative and restorative properties of platelet-rich plasma with microneedling. Here’s how this popular treatment differs from others:
- Medical-grade needles are used in the microneedling treatment
- A small blood draw is performed from your arm with proper protocols followed
- Platelets are drawn out of the blood and separated from red blood cells
- This creates PRP that contains a concentration of platelets and growth factors and has a fibrin matrix that supports healing
- Then tiny channels (invisible to the naked eye) are made in the skin during the microneedling procedure
- The PRP is spread over the skin and allowed to penetrate through the channels
- The effect can be a kick start for cell growth, tightening and brightening of the skin, the production of collagen, and new skin cells formed by the body over time that make the skin smoother and firmer and more even-toned. The skin also produces more hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin.
