Microneedling
Microneedling is a safe and effective treatment that uses tiny, hair-thin needles to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. The treatment promotes collagen and elastin production, which are proteins that give your skin strength, resilience, and elasticity. By enhancing these proteins, microneedling can improve the overall texture and tone of your skin.
What conditions can microneedling help with?
Microneedling can help with many common skin imperfections. It can:
- Repair acne, surgical, or injury-related scars
- Soften fine lines and wrinkles
- Heal sun damage and age spots
- Improve skin tone and texture
- Even out stretch marks
- Increase the absorption of skincare products
What to expect during your treatment session
Microneedling is a simple procedure that usually takes under an hour. Our experienced and licensed clinicians will typically perform the following steps:
- Apply a topical numbing cream to your face
- Wait comfortably for around half an hour
- Insert a new, sterile microneedle cartridge
- Gently glide a microneedling device over your skin at the perfect rate and depth for your unique needs
- Apply a healing serum to the treatment areas
Caring for your skin after treatment
Since the procedure creates tiny punctures in your skin’s surface, you may have some mild discomfort, but most patients find the procedure to be very tolerable. In the first few days, you may notice some redness, swelling, or flaking, but these should subside as your skin begins to regenerate and renew itself.
For the first few days, you want to be as gentle as possible on your skin. Drink plenty of water, get plenty of rest, and have a health diet. In addition, you will want to avoid:
- Rubbing the treatment area
- Sun exposure
- Makeup
- Exfoliating cleansers
- Retinol A and vitamin C products
Typical results

Fine lines and wrinkles will be diminished, while the texture of your skin will become smoother and more even. Hyperpigmentation and dark spots will be reduced, and the overall tone of your skin will become more radiant and youthful.
