What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment designed to rejuvenate your skin. By creating precise, microscopic punctures in the top layer of the skin, this procedure triggers your body’s natural wound-healing process.

This response powerfully stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin—the essential proteins that keep skin firm, smooth, and youthful. I use this advanced technique to safely and effectively address a range of skin concerns and improve your skin’s overall health and appearance.

Microneedling Benefits

Icroneedling Elasticity

Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles

By creating thousands of controlled micro-injuries, micro needling activates a course of healing that rebuilds your skin’s structural matrix. The resulting surge in new collagen and elastin helps to plump the skin, effectively softening the appearance of fine lines, crow’s feet, and deeper wrinkles. This process leads to firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin with lasting results.

Microneedling Treatments

Minimizes Pore Size and Improves Texture

While it may seem counterintuitive, microneedling can help reduce the appearance of enlarged pores. The treatment stimulates collagen production in and around your pores, causing them to plump up and appear smaller and more refined. This renewal process also helps to smooth uneven skin texture, giving your complexion a softer and more uniform look and feel.

Improves the Appearance of Scars

Microneedling is highly effective at diminishing the visibility of atrophic scars which are sunken often due to a loss of collagen, particularly those from acne or surgery. The procedure works by breaking down old, fibrous scar tissue and stimulating the production of healthy new collagen to replace it. This helps to create a smoother, more even skin texture and significantly reduces the prominence of depressed scars.

Microneedling Moisturizing

Enhances Product Absorption

The micro-channels created during a microneedling treatment allow for significantly deeper penetration of topical skincare products. For a short period post-treatment, serums and nourishing ingredients can bypass the outermost layer of the skin and reach the deeper layers where they are most effective. This maximizes the benefits of your skincare regimen and enhances overall treatment results.

For years, I attributed my stress and poor sleep to my job. Skeptical about acupuncture, I sought a natural remedy. After just one session with Jennifer, I felt a calm I hadn’t known in ages. Now, after several treatments, my anxiety is under control.

Your Questions Answered

Does microneedling hurt?

A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to minimize discomfort. Most patients describe the sensation as a light vibration or mild prickling.

What is the downtime after treatment?

You can expect mild redness and a feeling similar to a sunburn for 24-48 hours. Most people resume normal activities the following day.

For a comprehensive overview of red light therapy, its benefits, and the science behind it, the Cleveland Clinic provides a reliable and easy-to-understand resource from a leading medical institution.

How many treatments will I need?

For optimal results, a series of 3-6 treatments spaced about 4-6 weeks apart is typically recommended, depending on your specific skin goals.

When will I see results?

You may notice a “glow” soon after treatment, but the most significant results appear after several weeks as your body produces new collagen.
