SKINPEN® MICRONEEDLING

SKINPEN® MICRONEEDLING

Vivant Aesthetics & Wellness proudly offers SkinPen®, the only FDA-approved microneedling device available today. Through the use of stainless-steel needles, microscopic channels are created in the skin without lasers. The use of these tiny needles causes injuries to the skin, triggering the production of collagen.

The main objective of the microneedling procedure is to improve the skin’s texture, diminish fine lines and wrinkles, and reduce scarring. Although the treatment does not specifically address pigment, patients may notice an improvement in their complexion due to healthier skin.

SkinPen® Microneedling benefits include:

  • Suitable for all skin types
  • A quick 20-30 minute procedure
  • Minimally invasive
  • Boosts skin elasticity and reduces wrinkles
  • Rejuvenates the skin
  • Reduces acne scarring
  • The healing process continues after the procedure has been completed

SkinPen® Microneedling with PRP

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is prepared by drawing a small amount of blood from your arm, as you would at a routine medical checkup. After spinning the blood sample in a centrifuge, PRP, a gold liquid, floats to the top after being separated from the blood. A concentrated form of PRP contains growth factors and proteins that promote the body’s natural healing process.

The combination of SkinPen® microneedling and PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is more effective than microneedling alone. With microneedling with PRP, you get smooth, unblemished skin, reducing visible pores and acne scars. While requiring minimal downtime, this treatment is highly effective on all types and shades of skin.

After microneedling, the PRP serum is applied to the skin to enhance these benefits further and speed up your body’s cell renewal. Patients undergoing microneedling are encouraged to consider adding PRP to their treatments to maximize their results.

PRP Filler Treatments

Using cosmetic fillers rejuvenates your face, minimizes wrinkles and fine lines, and improves scars without causing adverse effects. There are several effective fillers available, but PRP offers an organic, faster alternative. With PRP fillers, we restore the vitality of your skin by using your own blood. A major benefit of PRP as a cosmetic filler is that it speeds up the healing and rejuvenation of the skin without the risk of allergic reactions. In addition, it provides results for a longer period of time.

PRP Hair Restoration Injections

PRP hair restoration stimulates hair growth without surgery. The PRP treatment is a natural solution to hair loss, which requires little more than a blood sample for men and women who suffer from thinning hair, receding hairlines, or excessive shedding.

 

Topical numbing cream is used before PRP hair restoration to minimize discomfort. PRP is injected into the scalp using a small gauge needle, where growth factors begin to work immediately. The body’s primary healing components are growth factors, which promote natural healing, cellular regeneration, and blood flow. Hair growth is improved when PRPs are injected into the scalp, stimulating blood flow and stimulating dormant hair follicles.
