Choosing the right microneedling treatment can make a world of difference in your skin’s appearance. At Medical Aesthetics in Evergreen, Colorado, we offer three options: standard microneedling, PRP microneedling, and RF microneedling. But what’s the difference, and which one is right for you? It’s important to understand each treatment so you can make an informed decision.
Our owner, Brenda Cumming, is a registered nurse with over 30 years experience in healthcare and aesthetics. She and our med spa team bring a wealth of knowledge and can guide you toward the best microneedling treatment for your needs.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production. This process helps improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and promote a smoother, more youthful appearance. It’s a minimally invasive treatment that rejuvenates your skin. Want something that can enhance your complexion even more? PRP and RF microneedling take this treatment even further.
PRP Microneedling
PRP microneedling, or the “vampire facial,” adds platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to the microneedling process. The PRP, derived from your blood, is applied during the treatment to supercharge your skin’s natural healing process. This amplifies the healing process, leading to faster recovery and more significant improvements in skin texture and tone. It’s a great option if you want a more intensive treatment that works with your body’s natural healing abilities.
RF Microneedling
RF microneedling combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy to heat the deeper layers of your skin. This added heat enhances collagen and elastin production even more, making your skin tighter and firmer. RF microneedling is especially beneficial for treating deeper wrinkles, scars, and skin laxity. It offers more dramatic results than standard microneedling and is the most intensive option.
Find the Best Treatment for You
The right microneedling treatment for you depends on your specific skin concerns and desired results. If you’re looking for:
- A gentle boost in skin texture and overall smoothness, standard microneedling is a great option.
- A natural enhancement with added radiance, PRP microneedling offers an extra level of rejuvenation.
- Treatment for deeper wrinkles, scars, or significant skin laxity, RF microneedling is your best bet.
At Medical Aesthetics, LLC, we offer all three treatments as part of our holistic approach to skin care. We’re happy to help you choose the appropriate microneedling treatment. Schedule your consultation in Evergreen by calling 303-674-7225.
