What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure designed to treat a variety of skin concerns, including acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, large pores, and uneven skin tone. During the procedure, tiny needles are used to create micro-injuries in the skin, which stimulates the skin’s natural healing process and boosts collagen and elastin production.

This treatment can be customized to target specific areas of concern, helping to rejuvenate the skin and promote smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin. Microneedling is a great option for those looking for a non-surgical solution to improve skin texture and appearance.

Treatment Process

  • Topical Numbing: Before your treatment, a topical numbing cream will be applied to the treatment area to minimize any discomfort.

  • Microneedling: Once your skin is numb, the microneedling device will be passed over the treatment area, creating tiny punctures in the skin. This process triggers the skin's natural healing response and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin—key components for firm, youthful skin.

  • Duration: The procedure typically takes about 30-45 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.

Post-Treatment Care

To support the healing process and ensure optimal results:

  • Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 48 hours to protect your sensitive skin.

  • Use gentle skincare products: Avoid harsh skincare treatments like exfoliants or acids for a few days after your treatment.

  • Avoid heavy makeup for a few days to allow your skin to breathe and heal.

  • Refrain from hot showers, saunas, hot tubs, and intense exercise for at least 48 hours to minimize irritation and excessive sweating.

Post-Treatment Expectations:

  • You may experience some redness and mild swelling for a day or two following the treatment. This is normal and typically subsides within 24-48 hours.

  • As collagen and elastin production continue to increase, you'll begin noticing smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin in the following weeks.

Why Choose Microneedling?

  • Non-Surgical: No need for invasive procedures—microneedling offers a non-invasive solution for rejuvenating your skin.

  • Minimal Downtime: Most people experience only mild redness or swelling, and can return to their normal activities within a few days.

  • Natural Results: Microneedling triggers your body’s own healing process, resulting in natural-looking improvements over time.

  • Long-Term Benefits: As collagen and elastin production increases, the skin continues to improve, leading to long-lasting results.
