As we age, many start to notice skin issues, like lines, wrinkles, or a dull appearance. These typical signs of aging can often leave a person feeling a bit deflated and wishing they had the youthful skin of their past. While it’s not possible to turn back time, there is a way for men and women to rejuvenate their skin for a more youthful appearance.

At New Body Aesthetics, board-certified physician and aesthetic specialist Dr. Cory A. Gaiser offers his Cincinnati, OH patients microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP). This minimally invasive treatment can help men and women refresh their skin for a healthy, glowing appearance.

What is microneedling with PRP?

At New Body Aesthetics, we perform microneedling with PRP as a way for men and women to smooth imperfections in their skin and create clear, healthy skin and a luminous appearance. Whether you’re looking to fight signs of aging or postpone them, microneedling with PRP is a great facial rejuvenation procedure.

Microneedling with PRP is the process of using a patient’s own blood to stimulate collagen production and the body’s natural healing process, and is a popular facial rejuvenation procedure among our Cincinnati, OH patients. At the start of your procedure, Dr. Gaiser or one of his skilled team members will take a small sample of your blood. This blood will be spun through a centrifuge machine that will separate the plasma and nutrient-rich proteins. Then, as he carefully passes a handheld device over your skin, small micro-injuries will be made into the treatment area in which the platelet-rich plasma serum will be reinstated back into your body to promote your body’s natural healing process, as well as collagen and elastin growth.

What does microneedling with PRP treat?

Microneedling with PRP is a popular treatment at New Body Aesthetics because it treats a variety of skin conditions. This facial rejuvenation procedure has many benefits and can help address a wide range of skin flaws, including:

  • Lines and wrinkles
  • Rough skin texture
  • Pigmentation issues
  • Blotchy skin tone
  • Dry skin
  • Acne scars or other scarring
  • Age and sun spots

What can I expect after microneedling with PRP?

After your treatment, you will be sent home for your microneedling with PRP recovery. You can expect to have some redness, swelling, and bruising; however, this is normal and will dissipate within a few days and may even be covered up with makeup. Over the next few weeks and months, you should start to see your skin begin to clear up and appear refreshed and rejuvenated. Because the treatment stimulates collagen production, you could see continued improvements for up to around six months. Depending on your treatment plan, Dr. Gaiser may suggest you visit his Cincinnati, OH office for follow-up treatments to get your desired results.

If you’re starting to notice signs of aging, like lines and wrinkles, or want to refresh your dull-looking skin for a healthy, youthful glow, microneedling with PRP at New Body Aesthetics may be just what you need. This nonsurgical, minimally invasive procedure is a great way for Cincinnati, OH men and women to rejuvenate their skin without the downtime, cost, and worry of surgery.
