Microneedling

Written By Anna Kate .

Microneedling is a collagen-stimulating treatment that uses tiny, controlled micro-injuries to trigger your skin’s natural healing process. This helps improve overall skin texture and tone while encouraging collagen production.

Benefits of Microneedling

  • Smooths fine lines and wrinkles

  • Reduces acne and acne scarring

  • Brightens dull or uneven skin tone

  • Minimizes enlarged pores

  • Improves skin texture and firmness

  • Promotes a collagen and elastin production

Who It’s Great For

Microneedling is an excellent option for anyone dealing with:

  • Fine lines + wrinkles

  • Acne or congestion

  • Acne scarring / texture

  • Sun damage or uneven pigmentation

  • Loss of firmness

This treatment is safe for most skin types and delivers results with minimal downtime.

What to Expect

During your microneedling session, a topical numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort. Once numb, we use a Microneedling device that creates precise microchannels across the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin. Most clients describe the feeling as light pressure or a mild scratchy sensation.

Your skin may appear pink or feel warm—similar to a light sunburn—for 24–48 hours. Minor dryness or flaking can occur as your skin renews itself.

FAQ

How many treatments will I need?
Most clients see visible improvements after 1 session, but 3–6 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart provide the best long-term results.

Is microneedling painful?
With numbing cream, discomfort is minimal. Most clients find it comfortable enough to take a nap during their treatment.

Is there downtime?
Expect redness for up to 48 hours and mild dryness as the skin heals.

When will I see results?
Many clients notice a smoother, brighter complexion within 1–2 weeks, with continued improvement as collagen forms over the next 4–8 weeks.

Who is not a candidate?
Microneedling is not ideal for those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, have active infections, open lesions, or are currently using certain acne medications (like Accutane). A consultation is recommended to ensure safety.
