Microneedling

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a non-invasive treatment that uses tiny, sterile needles to create micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. This process stimulates the skin’s natural healing process, helping to reduce the appearance of scars, fine lines, and stretch marks. It is an effective solution for individuals seeking smoother, more even skin texture without the need for extensive downtime. 

The Process

1. Consultation

We begin by assessing your skin, discussing your concerns (such as scars, acne marks, or fine lines), and determining the ideal treatment plan.

2. Microneedling Procedure

A small, handheld device with fine needles is gently moved over the targeted area, creating micro-channels in the skin to stimulate collagen production.

3. Healing

Mild redness or sensitivity may occur immediately after the procedure, resembling the effect of a light sunburn. The healing process typically takes 24–48 hours.

What to Expect

  • Some redness and mild swelling immediately after the treatment.

  • Skin may appear slightly dry or flakey as it heals, but this is temporary.

  • Collagen production begins immediately, but optimal results are typically visible after 4–6 weeks as the skin continues to heal.

  • Results vary depending on the severity of scars and skin type but are generally visible after a few sessions.

Follow-Up & Touch-Ups

  • For best results, multiple treatments are often recommended (3–6 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart).
  • Touch-ups may be necessary depending on the severity of the scars or skin condition.
  • Microneedling results are long-lasting, but maintenance sessions every 6–12 months can help sustain the benefits.

Pre-Procedure Care

  • Avoid using retinoids or strong acids for 2 weeks prior to the procedure.
  • Avoid direct sun exposure or tanning beds for 2 weeks before the treatment.
  • Discontinue using blood thinners, alcohol, and caffeine 48 hours before treatment.
  • Cleanse your skin thoroughly before the session to ensure the area is free of makeup, lotions, and dirt.

Post-Procedure Care

  • Avoid sun exposure for 5–7 days after treatment, and apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen.

  • Do not use harsh skincare products, such as exfoliants, for at least 1 week.

  • Avoid sweating, saunas, and swimming for 3–5 days after the procedure.

  • Gently cleanse and moisturize the treated area with the recommended post-care products.

Results & Longevity

  • Visible results begin to appear after 4–6 weeks as collagen production increases.

  • Full results can be seen after 3–6 sessions, depending on the severity of the scars and skin concerns.

  • Results can last for several months, with touch-ups recommended every 6–12 months to maintain smooth, clear skin.

Microneedling is an effective, minimally invasive solution to improve the appearance of scars, fine lines, and skin texture. This treatment is ideal for anyone looking to enhance skin’s natural healing process and achieve a smoother, more youthful appearance.
