Contact UsWhat Is Microneedling with PRP?
Also known as collagen induction therapy, microneedling is a form of skin rejuvenation that helps your skin generate new collagen and elastin, which are the glue to the skin’s cellular matrix. This treatment uses single-use nano size needles to induce microscopic injuries in order to trigger the body’s wound healing response. With this controlled induction of tiny wounds, the skin will begin reformation of new building blocks for firming, tighter and smoother looking skin. If you'd like to find out more about microneedling with PRP, schedule a one-on-one consultation with our Oak Dermatology team in Naperville, Itasca, and Joliet, IL.
What to Expect from Microneedling with PRP
After your treatment, you might encounter some common but temporary side effects, such as:
- Redness
- Dryness
- Slight discomfort
- Swelling
We recommend that patients avoid using makeup, cleansing with abrasive face washes, or swimming in pools for approximately 72 hours after treatment. Activities like these could expose your skin to harsh bacteria and chemicals that may cause adverse side effects. You should also limit sun exposure or use a medical-grade sunscreen when planning to be outdoors. If you are using any skin care with actives like retinol or certain AHA/BHA, final results are typically visible within several weeks as the skin begins to repair and heal itself. It is also during this restoration period that new collagen is formed.
Oak Dermatology Reviews
Rhonda Collins (NP) is absolutely amazing. Patient, Friendly , Brilliant. Ask excellent questions and has been able to get to the bottom of my son’s on going skin issues. Highly recommend!
The whole staff was incredible! I had Dr. Alhadidi. She gave me lots of explanations and thought processes for what was going on with my skin. She gave me several treatment options and progressions (like if A doesnt work, we'll try B, and if it still doesnt work, let's do C). Other dermatologists would just give me one treatment option with no explanation. Now, my skin feels really great. I still can't believe it, because nothing else worked.
I've been coming here for 3+ years for laser hair removal and totally recommend it. Hannah makes me feel at ease and comfortable as well as answered all my questions pertaining to laser hair removal. Office is clean and checkout is a breeze. Building is easy to navigate.
Oak Dermatology is an amazing practice! I met with Dr.Hsu for a consultation and absolutely loved how thorough he was in explaining particular procedures to me, given the areas I pointed out that I wanted improvement in on my face. Once I came in for my treatment, him and his staff spent so much time explaining everything, including post care treatment. They are so nice and they are amazing in how they treat their patients. They don’t rush at all and truly can tell they care and treat everything equally as important no matter what you’re in the office for that day. Dr.Hsu was so great during my laser treatment and gentle throughout the entire procedure. He answered all my questions and did not leave the room until he was sure I was ok. I would absolutely highly recommend and will definitely continue to use Oak Dermatology for any future cosmetic (and medical) need! You will not be disappointed!!!
The best dermatology team I've ever had! Stephanie and everyone were so friendly and creative in getting my skincare back on track. I have no more acne and my Rosacea is getting better by the day. I genuinely couldn't ask for a better skincare team to have my back, literally!
