Microneedling with PRP in Glendale

Finally Address Those Skin Concerns That Have Been Bothering You

We get it - looking in the mirror and seeing acne scars, uneven texture, or signs of aging can really affect your confidence. Maybe you’ve tried countless products or treatments that promised results but left you disappointed. At Fix Med Spa, we understand how frustrating it can be when your skin doesn’t reflect how vibrant you feel inside.

That’s where microneedling with PRP comes in. Think of it as giving your skin the tools it needs to heal itself naturally. We’re not adding harsh chemicals or foreign substances - we’re simply encouraging your body’s own incredible healing process to work better than it has in years.

What Exactly Is Microneedling? (And Why You Shouldn’t Be Nervous)

Let’s be honest - when you hear “microneedling,” it might sound a bit intimidating. But here’s the thing: it’s much gentler than you’d expect. We use SkinPen, which is the only FDA-cleared microneedling device specifically designed for treating acne scars safely and effectively.

Think of it like this: we’re creating tiny, controlled channels in your skin - so small you can barely see them - that trigger your body to say, “Oh, let me fix this area and make it even better than before.” It’s like giving your skin a gentle wake-up call to start producing fresh, healthy collagen again.

What makes us confident in this treatment? SkinPen has been used on over 3 million patients worldwide, and the results speak for themselves:

• Your acne scars will improve - 8 out of 10 patients see real differences
• Fine lines and wrinkles soften - especially around the neck area where 94% of patients notice improvement
• It works for everyone - all skin types and tones can be treated safely, any time of year
• It’s completely natural - no harsh chemicals, just your body doing what it does best: healing

How Your Skin Heals Itself (It’s Pretty Amazing)

Here’s what happens after your treatment - and why the results keep getting better over time:

Right After Treatment: Your Skin Gets to Work

Think of this like your body’s emergency response team jumping into action. Blood flow increases to the treated area, bringing fresh nutrients and clearing away any old, damaged cells. It’s like your skin is getting a thorough spring cleaning from the inside out.

Over the Next Few Weeks: Building Something Better

Your skin starts producing brand new cells to replace what wasn’t serving you anymore. At the same time, it’s creating fresh collagen and elastin - the proteins that give your skin that bouncy, youthful feel. This is where the real magic happens.

The Following Months: Revealing Your Best Skin

Your skin keeps working behind the scenes, fine-tuning and perfecting the new tissue it’s created. This is when you’ll notice your texture becoming smoother, your scars less noticeable, and your overall skin tone more even. The best part? This process can continue improving your skin for months after your treatment.

Why We Add PRP (Your Skin’s Natural Superfood)

Now here’s where things get really exciting. PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma - but don’t let the scientific name intimidate you. It’s simply the healing part of your own blood, concentrated to give your skin extra support during recovery.

Think of it like this: we take a small sample of your blood (just like getting routine lab work done) and spin it to separate out all the growth factors and nutrients your body naturally uses to heal cuts and injuries. Then we apply this concentrated goodness right to your treated skin.

The results are pretty incredible:

• Your skin heals faster - those growth factors act like a turbo boost for recovery
• Better collagen production - your skin creates more of the good stuff that makes it look younger
• Less downtime - the PRP soothes your skin, so you’re back to normal activities sooner
• Results last longer - many patients see continued improvement for over a year

What to Expect During Your Visit

Before We Begin

We’ll start by thoroughly cleaning your skin and making sure you’re completely comfortable. If you’re concerned about sensitivity, we can apply numbing cream about 30 minutes before your treatment. We’ll also draw a small blood sample (similar to routine lab work) to prepare your PRP while we get started.

During Your Treatment

Here’s what the actual microneedling feels like: most patients describe it as gentle vibration with light pressure - much more comfortable than they expected! The treatment takes about 30 minutes, and you’ll hear a soft buzzing sound as the SkinPen works across your skin.

Once we’re done with the microneedling, we apply your fresh PRP like a nourishing serum. This part feels soothing and cooling - many patients find it quite relaxing.

Right After Treatment

Your skin will look like you spent a bit too much time in the sun - that pinkish glow is completely normal and shows your skin is responding well. This typically fades within 24-72 hours. You might also notice your skin feeling a little tight or dry over the next few days as it starts that renewal process we talked about - this is all part of your skin getting better.

Your Treatment Journey

Here’s what most of our patients experience: you’ll typically need a series of treatments spaced about a month apart to get the best results. The exact number depends on your skin’s specific needs, but most people see great improvement with 3-4 sessions.

Don’t worry if you don’t see dramatic changes right after your first appointment - this treatment is all about gradual, natural improvement. Some patients notice their skin looking brighter within a week or two, but the real transformation happens over 3-6 months as your collagen continues building.
