PRP Microneedling
Microneedling with your own platelet-rich plasma to boost tone and texture.
What prp microneedling actually is
PRP microneedling — the “vampire facial” — draws a small amount of your blood, concentrates the platelets, and applies that plasma during microneedling to support collagen and skin repair. Evidence is promising for texture and tone, though results are gradual, and provider technique and sterility are everything.
A good fit if…
- You want to improve texture, tone, or fine scarring
- You prefer using your own biological material
- You can plan a short series
Maybe not for you if…
- You have a blood disorder or take blood thinners
- You have an active skin infection
- You expect a single dramatic result

Common questions
Is the “vampire facial” safe?
With sterile technique and your own freshly drawn plasma, it has a good safety record. The horror stories come from unlicensed settings reusing equipment — which is exactly what vetting is for.
How is it different from regular microneedling?
It’s microneedling plus your concentrated platelets, which may enhance healing and collagen response. Many clinics offer both so you can compare.
When will I see results?
Skin often looks refreshed within a week, with collagen changes building over one to three months across a series.
