Microneedling

Microneedling

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny punctures stimulate the body’s natural healing process, promoting collagen and elastin production, which are essential for firm, youthful-looking skin.

When combined with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) — derived from your own blood — the results can be significantly enhanced. PRP is rich in growth factors and cytokines that accelerate tissue repair and regeneration.

What is microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin treatment that uses fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response and boosting collagen and elastin production.

What skin concerns does microneedling treat?

It effectively treats fine lines, acne scars, large pores, uneven skin tone, stretch marks, sun damage, and mild skin laxity.

Is microneedling painful?

Most patients experience mild discomfort, but a numbing cream is applied beforehand to minimize any pain during the procedure.

How long does a microneedling session take?

A session typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area and whether PRP or serums are used.

How many sessions will I need?

Most people see optimal results after 3–6 treatments, spaced 4–6 weeks apart. More sessions may be needed for deeper scars or more advanced signs of aging.

What’s the downtime after microneedling?

There may be mild redness, sensitivity, and swelling for 1–3 days. Most people return to regular activities within 24–48 hours.

Can microneedling be combined with other treatments?

Yes! It’s often paired with PRP (platelet-rich plasma), hyaluronic acid serums, or LED therapy to enhance results and improve healing.

Is microneedling safe for all skin types?

Yes, microneedling is generally safe for all skin tones and types when performed by a trained professional.

What should I avoid after microneedling?

Avoid sun exposure, harsh skincare products, makeup, and intense workouts for at least 24–48 hours. Always follow your provider’s aftercare instructions.

Are the results of microneedling permanent?

Results are long-lasting but not permanent. Maintenance treatments every few months help sustain the benefits.
