What is Microneedling with PRP?
Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production. PRP (platelet-rich plasma) contains concentrated growth factors that support tissue repair and regeneration.
When combined, PRP is applied to the skin during and immediately after microneedling to enhance healing and amplify collagen remodeling.
This treatment is sometimes referred to as a “Vampire Facial,” but at CN Medical, we focus on clinical precision and results-driven outcomes.
