What is PRP + SkinPen Microneedling for?

PRP and microneedling treatment in London is ideal for patients experiencing acne scarring, uneven texture, enlarged pores, fine lines and early signs of ageing. It is particularly suitable for individuals seeking natural skin rejuvenation without synthetic fillers or volume enhancement.

At Dr Joney De Souza Skin & Laser Clinic in Marylebone, this combination treatment is chosen by patients who want progressive collagen stimulation and improved skin quality. It is often searched as “PRP facial near me”, “SkinPen microneedling London” or “Vampire Facial London” by those seeking regenerative aesthetic treatments.

This treatment is appropriate for skin thinning, post-inflammatory pigmentation, acne scars and dull or tired-looking skin. Because it uses your body’s own growth factors, it aligns closely with Dr Joney’s philosophy of natural, refined results.

Why choose a PRP + SkinPen Microneedling treatment?

PRP and SkinPen microneedling is a regenerative facial treatment combining medical-grade microneedling with platelet-rich plasma derived from your own blood. The treatment works by stimulating collagen production through controlled micro-injuries while enhancing the regenerative response with concentrated growth factors.

SkinPen microneedling creates precise microchannels in the skin to activate collagen and elastin production. PRP, prepared through a centrifuge process, is then applied or delivered into the treated skin to accelerate healing and maximise regeneration.

Often referred to as the Vampire Facial, this treatment is performed in a controlled medical environment at our Marylebone clinic. The focus is not trend-driven marketing but evidence-based regenerative skin therapy delivered with precision and care.

How a PRP + Microneedling Treatment Works

The treatment works through dual stimulation. First, SkinPen microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries within the superficial and mid dermis. This triggers the body’s natural wound-healing response and collagen production.

Second, platelet-rich plasma is applied to or injected into the treated areas. PRP contains concentrated growth factors that enhance cellular repair, improve skin density and support tissue regeneration.

The regenerative cascade continues over several weeks, gradually improving texture, tone and firmness. Unlike superficial facials, this treatment works at a deeper biological level, making it suitable for long-term skin rejuvenation. Because it is non-laser based and regenerative in nature, it is safe for a wide range of skin types when performed correctly in a doctor-led environment.

Key Benefits of PRP + SkinPen Microneedling

PRP microneedling treatment in London improves acne scars, reduces fine lines and enhances overall skin quality by stimulating collagen production. It refines pores, improves skin tone and supports natural rejuvenation without adding volume.

Patients often choose this treatment because results appear natural and progressive. It is particularly effective for acne scarring and textural irregularities where surface treatments alone are insufficient. Unlike filler-based treatments, PRP microneedling enhances the skin itself rather than reshaping the face. This makes it ideal for patients seeking subtle improvement and long-term skin health.

A Typical PRP + SkinPen Patient Journey

Most patients undergo an initial consultation at our Marylebone clinic to assess skin condition, scarring depth and suitability for treatment. A course of three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart is commonly recommended for optimal collagen stimulation.

Over the following months, collagen remodelling continues to improve skin texture and tone. PRP microneedling may be combined with treatments such as polynucleotides, skin boosters or laser therapies as part of a comprehensive skin regeneration strategy. Each treatment plan is individually tailored in line with Dr Joney’s approach to facial harmony and natural refinement.

Before Your Treatment

Before PRP microneedling treatment, a detailed consultation is performed. Medical history, skin condition and expectations are reviewed. You may be advised to avoid certain medications that increase bruising risk. Photographs may be taken for clinical documentation.

During Your Treatment

A topical anaesthetic is applied to ensure comfort. A small sample of blood is drawn and processed to isolate platelet-rich plasma. SkinPen microneedling is performed to create controlled microchannels. PRP is then applied to or delivered into the treated areas.

The procedure typically takes between 45 and 60 minutes.

After Your Treatment

Mild redness, sensitivity and slight swelling are common and usually resolve within a few days. The skin may feel tight or slightly dry during the healing phase. Most patients return to normal activities within 24 to 72 hours.

Collagen stimulation continues over several weeks, with visible improvement becoming more apparent over time.

Profhilo vs Profhilo Structura - what is the difference? 👉

Both are injectable treatments containing hyaluronic acid. Both are produced by the same manufacturer. And both deliver beautiful, natural results. But they are not the same treatment, and understanding the difference is important when it comes to choosing the right one for your skin.

🫧 Profhilo
Profhilo is a skin booster. Its primary purpose is to deeply hydrate the skin, improve overall skin quality and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. It spreads through the tissue to treat a wide area, leaving the skin looking more radiant, plump and youthful. It is suitable for a broad range of patients and is particularly effective for anyone experiencing dullness, dehydration or a general loss of skin glow.

🫧 Profhilo Structura
Profhilo Structura is specifically designed to address skin laxity and loss of firmness. It contains a higher concentration of high molecular weight hyaluronic acid, which works to remodel the deeper structural layers of the skin, restoring lift, firmness and definition in areas where the skin has begun to lose its architecture over time. It is particularly effective for the cheeks, jawline and neck.

Which one is right for you?
If your primary concern is skin quality, hydration and radiance, Profhilo is likely the right starting point. If you are noticing a loss of firmness, definition or lift, Profhilo Structura may be the more appropriate choice. For many patients, the two work beautifully together as part of a combined treatment plan.

July is UV Safety Awareness Month, and as a skin and laser clinic, there is genuinely nothing we feel more passionately about than protecting the skin you’re in.

UV radiation is the leading cause of skin cancer worldwide. UVA rays silently penetrate deep into the skin every single day - breaking down collagen, causing dark spots, wrinkles and long-term cellular damage - while UVB rays trigger the DNA mutations that lead to skin cancer. And they are both present even on overcast days in the UK.

The reality? Nearly 9 in 10 melanomas are preventable. That statistic is both sobering and empowering because it means the choices you make today genuinely matter.

Swipe through for everything you need to know about why UV protection is non-negotiable, what unprotected exposure is doing to your skin right now, and exactly how to protect yourself this summer and beyond...

SPF 50 every morning. A wide-brimmed hat. Shade between 10am and 4pm. UV-blocking sunglasses. Lightweight cover-up. These aren’t just suggestions, they’re the steps that protect your skin, your health and your future 🖤

Meet your summer non-negotiable: ZO Skin Health Daily Sheer Broad-Spectrum SPF 50.

With July bringing longer days, stronger UV rays and more time spent outdoors, there has never been a more important time to make sure your SPF is doing its job properly - and this one delivers on every level.

Unlike your average sunscreen, Daily Sheer protects against the full spectrum of sun damage - including blue light from your phone and screens, and the deeper rays that most SPFs simply don’t block.

It also delivers 12 hours of antioxidant defence against everyday environmental damage, going far beyond what a standard SPF can offer.

The formula is completely non-greasy, water resistant for up to 40 minutes, and dries down to a sheer finish that sits beautifully under makeup. No white cast. No heavy residue. Just effortless, daily protection.
