MICRONEEDLING

Microneedling is a highly effective, minimally invasive treatment that stimulates collagen production to improve skin texture, tone, and firmness. By using tiny, controlled needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, microneedling triggers the body’s natural healing process, promoting the production of new, healthy skin cells. It's great for addressing concerns like acne scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, and overall skin texture.

What I love about microneedling is that it’s suitable for almost all skin types and offers natural, gradual improvements over time. The treatment is customizable, allowing for different depths and techniques to target specific skin concerns. It can be used on the face, neck, décolletage, and even the hands, helping to rejuvenate and refresh the skin with minimal downtime.

The procedure itself takes only about 15 minutes, but we apply a numbing cream for about 30 minutes beforehand to ensure comfort. After treatment, it’s normal to experience some redness and pinpoint bleeding, which may resemble tiny spots of blood on the skin. This typically subsides within a few hours to a day. You may also experience mild swelling, similar to a light sunburn. Results will start to appear after a few weeks, with optimal results visible after 3-6 sessions spaced about 4 weeks apart. For long-term benefits, regular treatments are recommended to maintain smooth, glowing skin.

FAQs

  • The number of microneedling sessions required varies based on individual skin conditions and desired results. Typically, a series of multiple treatments spaced a few weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. During your consultation, our experienced practitioners will assess your skin and develop a personalized treatment plan.

  • Microneedling is generally well-tolerated. While the procedure involves some discomfort, the application of a topical numbing cream significantly reduces any pain. Most clients report only mild sensations during the treatment.

  • Microneedling involves minimal downtime. Post-treatment redness and swelling typically subside within a few days. You can resume your normal activities immediately, but it’s crucial to avoid sun exposure until your skin has fully healed.

  • Microneedling stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, resulting in long-lasting improvements to the skin’s texture and appearance. With proper skin care and maintenance, the results can be sustained over time.

  • Microneedling is a safe and minimally invasive procedure with a well-established safety profile. Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and mild discomfort in the treated area. These effects are typically mild and resolve on their own.

  • Before your microneedling appointment, it’s essential to inform your medical provider about any medications, supplements, or skin conditions you have. Avoid using any harsh skincare products or treatments before the procedure. During your consultation, our practitioners will provide specific pre-treatment instructions to ensure the best results.
