Natural Growth Therapy microneedling, often referred to as a “vampire facial,” is a popular facial rejuvenation treatment that combines Natural Growth Therapy with microneedling. Here’s an overview of how it works, the procedure, benefits, and considerations:

 How Natural Growth Therapy Microneedling Works

1. Microneedling: This involves using a device with fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the skin’s natural healing process, promoting collagen and elastin production.
2. Natural Growth Therapy : It is derived from the patient’s blood and contains a high concentration of growth factors that aid in tissue repair and regeneration. When applied to the skin after microneedling, it enhances the skin’s healing and rejuvenation process.

 Procedure

1. Consultation: A consultation with a qualified professional to assess your skin and determine if Natural Growth Therapy microneedling is suitable for you.
2. Blood Draw: A small amount of blood is drawn from the patient.
3. Centrifugation: The blood is processed in a centrifuge to separate the liquid from other components.
4. Microneedling: The skin is cleansed, and a numbing cream may be applied. The microneedling device is then used to create micro-injuries on the skin’s surface.
5. Natural Growth Therapy Application: It is applied to the treated area, allowing the growth factors to penetrate deeply into the skin through the microchannels created by microneedling.
6. Post-Treatment Care: The skin is soothed and protected with specific aftercare products.

 Benefits

 Improved Skin Texture and Tone: Promotes smoother, firmer, and more even-toned skin.

 Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Stimulates collagen production, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

 Minimized Pore Size: Helps in reducing the size of pores.

 Enhanced Skin Radiance: Improves overall skin radiance and youthful appearance.

 Reduction in Scars: Can help diminish the appearance of acne scars and other types of scars.

 Considerations

 Multiple Sessions: Optimal results often require multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart.

Cost: Natural Growth Therapy microneedling can be expensive, depending on the provider and the number of sessions needed.

 Mild Side Effects: Temporary redness, swelling, and minor discomfort are common but typically subside within a few days.

 Downtime: There is usually minimal downtime, but patients might experience redness and sensitivity for a few days post-treatment.

 Who Can Perform This?

 Qualified Professionals: Natural Growth Therapy microneedling should be performed by a licensed and experienced healthcare provider, such as a dermatologist or a trained aesthetician under medical supervision.

 Post-Treatment Care

 Gentle Skincare: Use gentle, hydrating products and avoid harsh chemicals or exfoliants for several days.

 Sun Protection: Use sunscreen diligently to protect the skin and avoid direct sun exposure.

 Follow-Up: Follow-up appointments may be necessary to monitor progress and plan additional treatments if needed.
