What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that uses tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response. This process stimulates collagen and elastin production, which are essential proteins that help maintain the skin’s firmness, smoothness, and elasticity. Often called collagen induction therapy, microneedling can improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, and uneven skin texture.

The treatment is minimally invasive, customizable for different skin types and concerns. It can be combined with serums or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to enhance results, making it a versatile option for achieving healthier, more youthful-looking skin.

Before and After Results

Microneedling Procedure: Step-by-Step

Preparation

Before the procedure begins, the treatment area is thoroughly cleansed to remove oils, makeup, and impurities. Identifying the treatment area ensures that the microneedling process targets specific concerns, such as fine lines, acne scars, or uneven texture. Preparing the skin properly helps maximize results and sets the stage for healthier skin overall.

Anesthesia

To minimize discomfort during the procedure, a topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area. This helps patients relax and ensures the tiny needles can work effectively without causing unnecessary pain. The numbing cream typically takes 20–30 minutes to take effect, allowing the skin to become fully desensitized before the microneedling begins.

Microneedling Process

The core of the procedure involves using a specialized device equipped with tiny needles that create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries penetrate the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production. As the skin responds to these controlled punctures, it begins to repair itself, promoting the development of healthier skin and a more youthful appearance.

Serums and Enhancements (Optional)

During or immediately after microneedling, targeted serums can be applied to the treatment area to boost results. Because the tiny needles create micro-channels in the skin, active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid or growth factors are absorbed more effectively, allowing them to penetrate the deeper layers for optimal rejuvenation. This combination enhances hydration, texture, and overall radiance.

Customization and Safety

Microneedling is fully customizable based on the patient’s skin type and concerns. Needle depth, speed, and treatment intensity can be adjusted for sensitive areas or for addressing deeper scars and wrinkles. Using precise techniques ensures the procedure is safe, effective, and tailored to promote healthier skin while minimizing risks.

Recovery After
Microneedling

After a microneedling session, it’s normal for the skin to feel slightly sensitive, often resembling a mild sunburn. This is a sign that your skin cells are actively repairing and regenerating, working to produce collagen and restore a smoother, healthier texture. Because the procedure only affects the skin’s surface, recovery typically involves minimal downtime, allowing most patients to resume their regular activities quickly. During the healing process, gentle care and proper hydration help support the skin’s natural rejuvenation and maximize the treatment’s results.

Candidates for Microneedling

Microneedling is suitable for a wide range of individuals and works well across most skin types, making it a versatile option for many aesthetic goals.

Questions? We've Got Answers

Why is microneedling called collagen induction therapy?

Microneedling is referred to as collagen induction therapy because it stimulates the body’s natural healing process to repair the skin from within. By creating precise micro-channels in the outer layers, the treatment encourages new collagen and elastin production, which helps strengthen elastin fibers and improve skin texture. As the skin regenerates, common skin issues such as uneven tone and fine lines become less noticeable, making microneedling an effective treatment for long-term skin renewal.

Does microneedling address acne scars?

Yes, microneedling can effectively improve acne scars by creating controlled micro-injuries that stimulate new collagen production beneath the skin’s surface. This process helps rebuild damaged tissue and smooth uneven areas, leading to clearer, more youthful skin over time. During the initial consultation, a customized plan is created to address scar depth and overall skin condition for optimal results.

Is the procedure painful?

Microneedling is generally well tolerated, as a topical numbing agent is applied before treatment to minimize discomfort. While patients may feel light pressure from the fine needles, the sensation is usually mild and temporary. The procedure is designed to enhance the skin’s appearance and overall skin texture without significant pain.

What is the difference between traditional microneedling and RF microneedling treatments?

Traditional microneedling focuses on stimulating collagen through mechanical micro-injuries, while RF microneedling treatments combine this technique with radiofrequency energy to address deeper skin concerns. Both options aim to create rejuvenated skin, but RF microneedling may deliver more noticeable improvements for advanced concerns. A topical anesthetic is typically used for both treatments to ensure patient comfort.

Can I combine microneedling with other treatments?

Microneedling can be safely combined with other minimally invasive procedures to enhance results, including platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. PRP treatments use your own blood to isolate powerful growth factors that help promote healing and improve overall skin condition. This combination approach can address multiple cosmetic concerns at once, supporting smoother, healthier, and younger-looking skin.
