Microneedling
A collagen-stimulating treatment that uses controlled micro-injuries to encourage smoother, firmer, more refined-looking skin. Great for: Acne scars, texture, fine lines, and uneven skin tone.
A device creates tiny, controlled channels in the skin. Your skin responds by producing new collagen and elastin, which gradually improves texture and firmness. Results build over weeks rather than appearing overnight.
Microneedling is commonly used for acne scarring, fine lines, enlarged pores, uneven texture, and dullness. It works best as a series, and you will get a realistic sense of how many sessions your concern is likely to need.
We look at your skin, review your history, and ask about active breakouts, recent sun exposure, and any medications. Some skin conditions and medications mean waiting or choosing a different treatment, and you will be told plainly if that applies to you.
A numbing cream is applied first so you stay comfortable. Most patients describe a light vibrating or scratching sensation during treatment, which takes well under an hour.
Expect redness similar to a mild sunburn for a day or two, sometimes with light flaking afterward. Keep your skincare gentle, avoid active products and makeup as directed, and use strict daily sun protection while your skin heals.
