Microneedling involves tiny punctures on the skin’s surface with fine, sterile needles. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing response, producing collagen and elastin to improve skin tone, texture, and elasticity. It can be used on various concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, and uneven skin texture. Microneedling is versatile and can be used on multiple body and face areas, including the forehead, cheeks, neck, and décolletage. It is suitable for most skin types and can be customized based on individual needs and concerns.
Those interested in microneedling may want to improve their skin’s appearance, particularly those with aging signs, acne scars, or uneven texture. Results typically show within 4-6 weeks after treatment, as the skin begins to rebuild collagen and elastin. Full results can take 3-6 months to appear as the skin improves. Results can last anywhere from six months to a year, depending on your skin and lifestyle factors. In order to achieve optimal, long-lasting results, a series of treatments is often recommended.

Swelling and slight discomfort are also possible but generally subside quickly. There are few side effects when a trained professional performs the procedure.
Before your Microneedling session, avoid using exfoliating products, retinoids, and other harsh skincare treatments for at least 24-48 hours.

Following aftercare instructions, including using gentle skincare products and avoiding direct heat or sweating, will help ensure the best results.
During microneedling, a topical numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort. Treatment usually takes around 30 minutes, depending on the treated area. Most people experience only mild discomfort during the procedure, as the tiny needles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen production without causing significant pain or injury.
