Mirconeedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the use of tiny needles to create small punctures in the skin. This triggers the body's natural healing process, leading to the production of new collagen and other proteins that result in smoother, firmer skin. Microneedling is often recommended for people with acne scars, sun spots, fine lines, and wrinkles, or other signs of aging skin. While microneedling does not require any downtime and can be performed at most dermatology clinics, it may cause some mild discomfort or redness in the treated area. To minimize these side effects, we may recommend using a topical anesthetic cream before your treatment session.

During treatment, we will apply a topical serum to your skin, and then use the microneedling device to create tiny punctures on the surface of the skin. These small injuries trigger the body's natural healing process, prompting it to produce new collagen and other proteins that can reduce the appearance of scars, fine lines, and wrinkles.

While microneedling is generally considered safe and effective, there are some potential side effects and risks to be aware of. For example, some people may experience mild pain or discomfort during treatment or develop temporary redness or swelling in the treated area. Additionally, some people may be at higher risk of developing infection or scarring after microneedling, so it's important to discuss these possible risks with us before undergoing treatment.

What Skin Problems Can Microneedling Improve?

Microneedling is a versatile cosmetic procedure that can be used to treat a variety of skin conditions, including acne scars, sun spots, fine lines and wrinkles, stretch marks, and other signs of aging or damaged skin. Because microneedling works by triggering the body's natural healing process and promoting collagen growth, it can effectively improve the appearance of many different types of skin problems. Additionally, this treatment requires minimal downtime and can often be performed at our office. If you are interested in reducing the appearance of aging skin or want to improve the look of acne scars or other types of scars on your body, then microneedling may be an effective option for you.

How Often Should I Have Microneedling?

The exact frequency of your microneedling treatments will depend on the specific condition being treated and the severity of your skin problem. Typically, most people need at least one or two sessions to achieve optimal results and may require additional treatment sessions over time to maintain these improvements. During your initial consultation with us, we will be able to provide more detailed information about how often you should have microneedling and what you can expect from this procedure.
