Microneedling + PRP
DURATION
A Microneedling with PRP session at The Spa by Sheena lasts 90 to 120 minutes total, including the blood draw, PRP processing, numbing, microneedling, and PRP application.
PROCEDURE TYPE
Microneedling with PRP at The Spa by Sheena is classified as a cosmetic procedure, performed electively for skin rejuvenation rather than to treat a medical condition.
BODY AREA
Microneedling with PRP at The Spa by Sheena is performed on the face, with platelet-rich plasma applied topically during and after the SkinPen treatment to amplify the healing response.
INDICATION
Microneedling with PRP at The Spa by Sheena treats acne scarring, texture concerns, and fine lines, with PRP enhancing recovery and collagen production beyond what microneedling alone achieves.
THE PROTOCOL
What is microneedling with PRP?
Microneedling with PRP combines two regenerative techniques in one session. SkinPen creates micro-channels in the skin; platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from your own blood is applied topically during and after, where it absorbs through the micro-channels and amplifies the healing response. The PRP releases growth factors that accelerate collagen production and recovery.
What to expect from microneedling with PRP
Sessions take 60 to 90 minutes total, including 30 to 45 minutes of topical numbing before the actual treatment. The treatment itself feels like sandpaper or mild scratching. Most patients describe it as uncomfortable but tolerable.
Immediately after, your skin will look red and feel warm. Mild swelling is normal for 24 to 48 hours. Some pinpoint bleeding during treatment is normal and expected; it stops quickly.
Skip makeup, retinoids, and active skincare ingredients for 48 to 72 hours. Avoid sun exposure and use sunscreen religiously. Most patients book a series of 3 to 6 treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart for compound results. Visible improvement appears around the 3-week mark after each session.

Inside a microneedling with PRP appointment

FAQ
Your questions, answered
We’ve answered some of the most common questions below to help make your experience simple, transparent, and stress-free.
Standard microneedling combined with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) from your own blood applied topically. The micro-channels created by microneedling deliver PRP growth factors directly into the dermis. Result: enhanced healing, more dramatic collagen response, better results per session than microneedling alone.
What is Microneedling + PRP?
Adding PRP delivers concentrated growth factors that signal more aggressive regeneration. Faster healing time, more visible immediate glow, better collagen response per session. Patients with significant concerns (acne scars, scarring, deep texture issues) see meaningfully better results with PRP added.
How is Microneedling + PRP different from regular microneedling?
Patients treating acne scars, patients with significant texture concerns, patients wanting faster results, patients with significant sun damage, patients with stretch marks. For maintenance or mild concerns, standard SkinPen without PRP may be sufficient.
Who should add PRP to microneedling?
Not significantly—the topical numbing covers both the microneedling and the PRP application. The only added discomfort is the initial blood draw at the start of the session. Most patients don't notice difference in pain between standard microneedling and PRP-enhanced.
Does adding PRP make microneedling more painful?
Most patients see meaningful improvement after a series of 3 to 4 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Adding PRP often produces better per-session results, sometimes reducing total sessions needed for acne scarring and significant concerns.
How many sessions of Microneedling + PRP will I need?
$250 per session—competitive pricing for the combination. Series and package pricing available. Members receive discounted rates.
How much does Microneedling + PRP cost in Lubbock?
Recovery is about 5 days, similar to standard microneedling—red on day 1, fading over days 2–4, fully healed by day 5. PRP may produce slightly faster healing due to growth factor enhancement.
What's the recovery from Microneedling + PRP?
Yes—we offer PRP microneedling for body areas: stretch marks (abdomen, hips, thighs), surgical scars, hand rejuvenation, and neck/chest. Same protocol adapted to the area.
Can PRP be used elsewhere besides face?
Initial glow within days—often more pronounced than standard microneedling. Texture improvement visible 4–6 weeks after each session. Full collagen-driven results at 3 months. PRP-enhanced treatments often show results slightly faster than standard.
