Less Sun Means It's Time To MICRONEEDLE!

Microneedling therapy has become a trusted option for those seeking real results in skin rejuvenation. This minimally invasive procedure uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, activating the skin's healing process. In response, the body naturally begins to stimulate collagen production and elastin, the essential building blocks that support skin elasticity and renewal.

Also known as collagen induction therapy, microneedling is backed by research and widely recommended for addressing various skin concerns such as fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, uneven skin tone, and stretch marks. The results include visibly improved skin texture, firmness, and an overall radiant appearance—often with minimal downtime and lasting impact.

What is microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic treatment that enhances skin health by addressing various skin concerns. The procedure involves using tiny, sterilized needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate collagen and elastin production, essential components for improving skin texture, elasticity, and overall rejuvenation.

What are the benefits of microneedling

The benefits of microneedling go beyond surface-level improvements. It can also be more effective than some traditional cosmetic treatments like chemical peels or laser therapy, particularly when used to treat acne scars, smooth scar tissue, and restore skin health over time.

Here are some of the standout results:

• Revise Scars: From surgical scars and C-section scars to post-acne scarring, microneedling helps soften and reduce visible signs of trauma.

• Improve Pore Size: One of the earliest changes you'll notice is refined pores and smoother texture—even after just one treatment performed.

• Tighten Skin: Microneedling addresses fine lines and wrinkles, even in areas where Botox isn’t effective.

• Regrow Hair: When combined with platelet rich plasma (PRP), growth factors are introduced into the skin to stimulate dormant hair follicles.

• Reduce Cellulite and the Appearance of Stretch Marks: A series of multiple treatments can visibly fade stubborn marks and improve tone.

• Fade Tattoos and Dark Spots: By promoting new skin cells and disrupting pigment under the surface, microneedling can help lighten unwanted ink and discoloration.

Microneedling is also well-suited for darker skin tones, as it carries a lower risk of hyperpigmentation compared to laser therapy or stronger chemical peels.

What to Expect During the Microneedling Procedure

Your microneedling session begins with the application of a topical treatment to numb the area. Once prepared, a trained professional will glide a medical-grade device over the treatment area. The microneedling procedure typically takes about an hour, including time for numbing.

While there may be slight redness or sensitivity post-treatment, the procedure is generally well-tolerated and requires little to no downtime. You may start noticing results within a few days, but it takes around 4–6 weeks for full results to develop as collagen and elastin production ramps up. For best results, 3–5 treatments spaced a few weeks apart are often recommended.

Who Can Benefit From Microneedling?

This treatment is ideal for individuals dealing with:

• Aging skin

• Sun damage

• Dark spots

• Post-acne scarring

• Surgical scars

• Stretch marks and cellulites

• Uneven skin tone

Microneedling works on all skin types and tones. It’s particularly beneficial for those with darker skin tones, who may not be ideal candidates for traditional cosmetic treatments due to the increased risk of hyperpigmentation. Because microneedling enhances your skin from the inside out, it provides a safe, long-term path to skin rejuvenation for a wide variety of skin concerns.

Is microneedling right for you?

Determining if microneedling suits your needs depends on your skin concerns and treatment goals. Microneedling is particularly beneficial for individuals seeking skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime.

If you're looking to enhance skin elasticity, treat surgical scars, or reduce the appearance of stretch marks, microneedling offers a proven solution for achieving healthier, firmer skin.

Although microneedling benefits a wide range of skin conditions, it's essential to consult with a professional before undergoing the procedure. Factors such as active skin infections, specific medical conditions, or sensitivities to topical treatments must be addressed to ensure safety and effectiveness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is microneedling painful?

Not usually. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand. Most describe it as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful.

What are the risks of microneedling?

Some redness, swelling, or irritation may occur post-treatment. Serious side effects are rare when the procedure is performed by professionals. Avoid DIY tools to reduce risk.

Does microneedling tighten skin?

Yes, microneedling stimulates collagen and elastin production, which can help tighten and firm the skin over time. This effect improves as the body continues its natural healing process after treatment.

What is the best age for microneedling?

Most adults in their mid-20s and up can benefit, especially if dealing with premature aging, fine lines, or acne scars.

How to take care of my skin after microneedling?

After your session, you may experience mild redness or sensitivity—similar to a sunburn—for up to 48 hours. Avoid direct sun exposure, heavy makeup, or harsh skincare products (like acids or retinol) for a few days. We’ll send you home with a medical-grade post-care kit sample to support your healing and maximize results. Stick to gentle cleansing and moisturizing, and always wear SPF.

How long do the benefits of microneedling last?

Results can last anywhere from 3 to 6 months, depending on your skin type, concerns, and how well you care for your skin post-treatment. A series of sessions (typically 3–5) is recommended for optimal results, followed by maintenance treatments every few months to keep your skin firm, smooth, and glowing.

What’s the difference between a Microneedling Facial and a PRP Microneedling Facial?

A standard Microneedling Facial boosts collagen with ingredients like vitamin C to brighten and smooth the skin. A PRP Microneedling Facial, on the other hand, uses your own platelet rich plasma to enhance healing, stimulate deeper collagen induction, and improve results for scar tissue, fine lines, and overall rejuvenation.
