Unlock Your Skin’s Potential
At Aesthetic Beauty Lounge in Highland Park & Chicago Microneedling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) combines two innovative techniques to improve your skin’s texture, tone, and overall appearance.
Microneedling uses a device with tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This stimulates the body's natural healing process, leading to increased collagen and elastin production.
Platelet-rich plasma is derived from the patient's own blood. A small sample of blood is drawn and then processed to concentrate the platelets, growth factors, and other healing components. PRP is rich in factors that promote tissue repair and regeneration.
In Microneedling with PRP, microneedling is performed, and then PRP is applied topically to the treated area, where it is deeply absorbed into the microchannels, further boosting the skin’s healing processes.
PRP Perfection
The microneedling process stimulates the body's natural production of collagen and elastin, leading to improved skin texture, firmness, and elasticity. Microneedling with PRP can help diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, particularly on the face, neck, and hands. It is also a highly effective modality for reducing the appearance of scars from acne, surgery, or injuries. Hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and melasma are reduced, and microneedling can also lead to the appearance of smaller pores, improving the overall texture of the skin. Recovery time is generally short, with minimal discomfort and mild redness or swelling that typically subsides within a few days. While multiple sessions may be needed for optimal results, the effects of Microneedling with PRP can be long-lasting, and maintenance sessions can help prolong the benefits.
Knowledgeable Care
The process begins with an assessment of your skin concerns and determine if Microneedling with PRP is the right treatment for you. Your Aesthetic Beauty Lounge provider will explain the procedure, discuss your goals, and address any questions or concerns you may have. We take the time to learn about your preferences, reasons for seeking treatment, and aftercare requirements to ensure you are an excellent candidate to get optimal results from any treatment you pursue.

Transform From Within
On the day of the procedure for Microneedling with PRP Highland Park & Chicago providers will cleanse your skin and may apply a topical numbing cream to minimize any discomfort. The numbing cream typically takes about 20 to 30 minutes to take effect. A small sample of your blood is drawn, similar to a standard blood test. This blood sample is then processed in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from other blood components. Your provider will then use a microneedling device, which contains fine, sterile needles, to create controlled micro-injuries in your skin. The depth and pattern of the microneedling are customized based on your specific skin concerns and goals. Once the microneedling is complete, your provider will apply the PRP topically to your skin. The microchannels created by the microneedling allow for deep absorption of the PRP.
A Healing Revelation
After Microneedling with PRP Chicago & Highland Park patients can expect some redness and warmth, similar to a mild sunburn. Your provider will apply soothing products to help with this. Sun protection is crucial; avoid direct sunlight for a few days and use sunscreen if you must go outside. Hydration is essential; drink plenty of water and use gentle, hydrating skincare products. Minimize makeup use for a day or two to let your skin heal. Avoid harsh skincare products like retinoids and acids temporarily. Use a mild cleanser and refrain from hot water and harsh scrubbing. You may experience mild redness, swelling, and pinpoint bleeding, but these usually subside quickly. Strenuous exercise and activities that cause excessive sweating should be avoided for a few days. It's essential to follow your provider's specific post-procedure instructions. Depending on your goals, you may need multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart.
Skin Bliss
Microneedling with PRP can noticeably improve your skin's texture, making it smoother and more supple. It's particularly effective in reducing fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, mouth, and forehead. If you have scars, whether from acne, surgery, or injury, Microneedling with PRP can help minimize their visibility by stimulating tissue regeneration. Additionally, this treatment can address issues like hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and melasma, leading to a more even skin tone. While this treatment may require several sessions for optimal results, the benefits can be long-lasting, and occasional maintenance sessions can help sustain these effects. The treatment is highly customizable to your specific skin concerns and is a highly effective choice for many different individuals and skin types.
Depending on the severity of your skin concerns, we may recommend anywhere from two to six or more sessions, which are spaced four to six weeks apart. After completing a series of sessions, many individuals opt for maintenance treatments every six to 12 months to sustain their results and continue benefiting from microneedling with PRP.
You may notice some immediate effects, such as a subtle glow and improved skin texture, right after the procedure due to the micro-injuries created by microneedling. Within the first week or two, you may observe increased hydration, reduced redness, and improved overall skin tone. The most significant changes typically occur over the following weeks and months as your skin's collagen production increases. This process continues, and you'll likely see the full benefits of the treatment within two to six months. Microneedling with PRP is often performed in a series of sessions, and the results tend to accumulate with each treatment.
