In facial rejuvenation, unlike a PRP Face lift, there is no injection into the face. The same PRP treatment procedure that is used for other procedures is used for skin rejuvenation where a small amount of blood is drawn and a centrifuge is used to separate platelet rich plasma. This plasma is then spread on the surface of the skin and introduced into the small injuries using a FDA Approved micro-needle device. 

This Eclipse microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that creates miniscule punctures on the skin and creates a controlled injury. Micro-needling is also done without PRP, also called collagen induction therapy, but best results are seen when using PRP and micro-needling together.

Dr. Anita uses the Eclipse Micropen Elite which allows for precision when working on the skin. With the Eclipse Micropen, Dr. Anita is able to evaluate your skin and select an appropriate setting based on your skin’s unique needs. With the Micropen, controlled tiny fine “micro-needles” prick the skin and stimulate the creation of new skin cells. This procedure induces the production of collagen and elastin which are   key factors when trying to maintain vibrant and glowing skin. The tiny pricks allow for the platelet rich plasma to enter the skin and absorb the growth factors.
