PRP with Microneedling at Essex MedSpa
Microneedling is a process in which hundreds of tiny injections are made using a handheld “pen”. After applying the PRP on the skin, the pen creates tiny injection points, allowing the nutrient rich PRP to enter the skin at a deeper level. The result is an increase in collagen and elastin production, leaving the skin looking youthful and glowing.

When will I notice the results?
Collagen regeneration takes about 6 to 8 weeks. With each treatment, you will notice more improvement.
