What is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that stimulates the skin’s natural healing process. Using a specialized device with fine needles, Microneedling creates tiny punctures in the skin’s surface, triggering collagen and elastin production. This leads to improved skin texture, reduced pore size, and an enhanced overall appearance.
Candidates for Microneedling
Ideal candidates for Microneedling are individuals seeking to address various skincare concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, atrophic acne scars, surgical scars, aging skin, stretch marks, uneven skin tone, and texture irregularities. The procedure is safe for all skin types, including darker skin tones that do not benefit from laser treatments. Whether you want to rejuvenate your face, neck, or body, Microneedling can help you achieve smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin. The best way to determine your candidacy is through a private consultation with our team. We will assess your candidacy during a personalized consultation, taking into account your skin type, concerns, and treatment goals.
What Our Patients Are Saying
Microneedling Treatment
During your microneedling treatment session, our skilled aesthetician will carefully maneuver the Microneedling device across the targeted areas of your skin, creating controlled micro-injuries. These tiny punctures stimulate collagen and elastin production, producing firmer, more youthful-looking skin over time. The procedure is virtually painless and requires minimal downtime, allowing you to resume your daily activities quickly. Your treatment time will depend on the extent of your skin concerns, treatment goals, size of the treatment region, and the current condition of your skin.
Treatment Areas for Microneedling
- For fine lines: Creates micro-injuries that trigger collagen and elastin production to smooth fine lines.
- For wrinkles: Stimulates collagen production in the skin, leading to improvements in the appearance of wrinkles over time.
- For acne scars: Reduces the appearance of scars by rejuvenating the skin during the healing of created micro-injuries.
- For enlarged pores: Tightens the pores through the stimulation of collagen and elastin production, causing the pores to appear smaller.
- For sagging skin: Through controlled micro-injuries, the skin laxity improves and creates a firmer appearance.
- For sun damage: Promotes cell turnover, which helps reduce uneven skin texture and tone caused by UV exposure.
- For age spots: Breaks up the melanin in the skin, leading to a more even skin tone and reducing the appearance of dark spots.
- For skin texture and tone: Triggers growth factor production and skin rejuvenation, gradually improving both tone and texture by smoothing out rough or uneven areas.
- For hyperpigmentation: Promotes the growth of new, evenly pigmented skin cells through the stimulation of collagen production.
Microneedling Recovery and Aftercare
Following your Microneedling treatment, you may experience mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity in the treated areas. These side effects are temporary and typically subside within a few days. To promote healing and optimize your results, we recommend following a customized skincare regimen. This may include gentle cleansers, moisturizers, and sunscreen to protect your skin and maintain its health.
Microneedling Results
As collagen and elastin production increase, you’ll notice a gradual improvement in your skin’s texture, tone, and overall appearance. Fine lines and wrinkles will diminish, acne scars will fade, and your complexion will appear smoother, firmer, and more youthful. A series of treatments can achieve long-lasting results, allowing you to enjoy a rejuvenated, radiant complexion. The number of sessions you require will depend on your personal goals and skin condition.
