Microneedling

Microneedling is a process that uses tiny, medical-grade needles to create microchannels through the surface of the skin to penetrate to the depth of the dermal layer.  This signals the body to respond by producing collagen and elastin fibers. As a result, the skin becomes fuller, thus reducing the appearance of scars, lines, and wrinkles.

Some of the conditions that medical microneedling is known to improve include: mild to moderate acne scarring, fine lines and wrinkles, sagging skin, skin texture and pore size, and stretch marks.

Patients often notice an immediate “glow” to their skin. Visible changes to the skin develop over the course of several days and weeks. Results can continue to improve up to 6 months after a treatment as collagen production continues.

We recommend 4-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart.

Following your treatment, your skin may be pink and flushed in appearance, comparable to mild sunburn. This typically goes down in a few hours. Within the first week, your skin may appear more dry than usual and have mild flakiness.
