Microneedling

Frequently Asked Questions
How Does Microneedling Work?
Microneedling takes advantage of the body’s natural healing processes to stimulate collagen and elastin production and correct scarred, damaged, or uneven skin. By puncturing the skin with tiny, sterile needles, microneedling forces the body to reactivate its healing processes, resulting in smoother, more attractive skin.
Where Can Microneedling Be Applied?
Typically, microneedling is performed on the face, neck, or chest, but it can be applied elsewhere depending on the patient’s needs. Many patients use microneedling to minimize the visibility of stretch marks on their thighs and stomach, or to reduce age marks on their back or neck.
Who Can Receive Microneedling Treatments?
Microneedling is an appropriate way to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, and hyperpigmentation for most patients interested in the treatment. Patients taking acne medication, or who suffer from blood disorders, cancer, eczema, or other skin conditions, should consult with a doctor before beginning treatment.
When Will Results Be Noticeable?
Patients typically report noticeable results from microneedling treatments within a matter of weeks. This time may differ between skin types and treatments.
What Is The Recovery Process Like?
The day of and following your microneedling treatment, patients should avoid direct sunlight. Otherwise, no other precautions need to be taken. Recovery is typically very quick, with patients only reporting mild redness for a few days after their treatment.
How Much Does Microneedling Cost?
The cost of microneedling treatments will depend on the size of the area being treated and the number of treatments required to achieve a satisfactory result. For more information on the pricing of our microneedling treatments, contact us today.
