PRP Microneedling for the face focuses this regenerative pairing on facial skin, from the forehead to the jawline and the delicate area under the eyes. Platelet rich plasma, concentrated from a small sample of your blood, is applied to freshly microneedled skin so its growth factors can work where collagen is being rebuilt.
It is chosen for facial texture, dullness, fine lines, acne scars and thin, crepey skin under the eyes. At our Merrick clinic, your provider maps the face by zone, adjusting depth for thicker cheek skin and the thinner under eye area, and typically plans three to four sessions spaced four to six weeks apart.

What to Expect
Your provider examines your skin in good light, noting texture, tone and the under eye area. A small blood sample is drawn and spun while numbing cream settles in. The pen then treats the face zone by zone, with lighter passes near the eyes, and your plasma is worked into the skin. You will look flushed for a day or two. Keep skincare simple, wait 24 to 48 hours before makeup and book your next session.
