We know you’ve heard about microneedling. Not only do we, NewBeauty writers and editors, love it, but so do countless celebrities. If you’re new to the treatment, microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin to help stimulate collagen and elastin production—the proteins that help keep skin firm, smooth and resilient.
That’s the very basic version, of course. There’s plenty more to know, from the potential skin-tightening benefits of pairing microneedling with radio frequency to its future role in enhancing targeted skin-care ingredient and drug delivery. One pairing in particular has earned a cult following: microneedling with PRP, or platelet-rich plasma. Better known as the “vampire facial,” it uses a concentrated dose of your own blood—rich in growth factors—to amplify those collagen-building results and speed healing.
Inspired? Ahead, we’ve rounded up 10 celebrities who have spoken about microneedling before and why they love the results.
