Microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy) at Koru Medical Spa
Koru Team Member Sally Kaufmann performs PRP Microneedling with the Skinpen
Not all pens are created equal! Koru Medical Spa uses SkinPen®, the first FDA approved Microneedling device which can be used on all types of skin and delivers minimal discomfort compared to other pens. Collagen Induction Therapy or Microneedling may help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, large pores, uneven skin texture, improve skin tone and tightness, soften the dark hollows around the eyes, and improve the look of acne scars, scars, and stretch marks. With as few as three non-invasive and affordable treatments spaced 30 days apart, you can improve your appearance for six months after your last treatment and step out with confidence.
Microneedling with PRF
Take your treatment to the next level with cutting edge, all-natural, regenerative PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) delivered topically through micro-channels created during your microneedling treatment. PRF is an advanced form of PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and contains a greater concentration of fibrin, white blood cells, and platelets. In addition, PRF contains stem cells that are not found in PRP that enhance the repair of your skin for a younger-looking glow!
Microneedling with AnteAGE MD Stem Cells
For those who are unwilling to undergo a simple blood draw from the arm, we additionally offer microneedling with AnteAGE MD Stem Cells derived from human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. These stem cells are full of powerful rejuvenating growth factors and cytokines that we will apply topically during and after your treatment. Included with your treatment, the AnteAGE MD Stem Cell After Care kit to accelerate healing and intensify overall rejuvenation at home.
What to expect…
Patients typically get a series of 3 to 6 treatment sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Microneedling has minimal downtime, few if any side effects, and can be safely performed on most patients including those with Melasma! Patients usually see improvement in skin firmness, fine lines, skin texture, hydration and overall brilliancy immediately, with the most significant improvement in one month post-treatment session!
Post-treatment effects
After receiving microneedling, your skin will appear slightly pink to red immediately post-procedure, with a similar feeling to a mild to moderate sunburn. Additionally, common treatment responses include: dryness, rough skin, tightness, redness, itching, peeling, discomfort, tenderness, and burning. We give each microneedling patient a soothing gel for post-treatment as well as recommending an aftercare regimen.
