What is microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, involves introducing a serum into the skin by puncturing the skin with tiny, sterile needles which signal to the body to produce more collagen and elastin. It’s these two proteins that give the skin its firmness and elasticity, leading to rejuvenation and improvement in skin texture and appearance.
Microneedling is commonly used to treat:
What serum or product will be microneedled?
There are many different products that can be microneedled but at MOTOX skin science we use Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), Platelet Derived Growth Factor (PDGF), Exosomes, and/or PDO Afterglo.
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)
Often called the “Liquid Gold” of regenerative medicine, PRP uses your body’s own growth factors to accelerate healing and collagen production.
How It Works:
Benefits of PRP with Microneedling:
Exosomes
Exosomes are cutting edge regenerative products derived from plant based stem cells. They contain potent growth factors and signaling molecules to amplify the skin’s natural healing response.
Benefits of Exosomes:
Why Choose Exosomes?
If you have a contraindication for the use of PRP, or do not want a blood draw, Exosomes are a great alternative for those looking for advanced skin rejuvenation.
PDO AfterGlo
PDO AfterGlo is a unique serum infused with polydioxanone (PDO), a biodegradable material that stimulates collagen production. This can be done alone, or in addition to PRP/PDENs.
How It Works:
During the microneedling session, PDO AfterGlo is applied to the skin, allowing the serum to penetrate deeply through the microchannels created by the device. The PDO particles encourage fibroblast activity, which enhances skin tightening and rejuvenation.
Benefits of PDO AfterGlo:

Platelet Derived Growth Factor (PDGF)
PDGF is made from recombinant technology and is up to 300,000 times more potent than PRP. While PRP can give great results, because PRP varies so much from person to person, one can never predict or promise a result. However, when using PDGF there is a constant number of growth factor and therefore a more reliable and oftentimes dramatic outcome.
