The desire for firmer, tighter and younger-looking skin dates as far back as ancient times, and the methods developed for achieving this desire have significantly changed over the years. In modern medicine, there are an innumerable amount of skincare treatments, products and therapies that promise healthier, younger skin, however, many fall short of this and fail to deliver on their promises. One of the most trusted skincare treatments that delivers the results it promises is microneedling, which uses dozens of ultra-thin needles to create tiny wounds in the skin that stimulate the healing process. This increases the production of collagen and elastin in the skin, resulting in tighter, firmer and healthier skin.

Microneedling is an innovative procedure that utilizes needles to prick the skin. The purpose of the treatment is to generate new collagen and skin tissue for firmer, smoother, and more toned skin. Microneedling is used on the face and may treat wrinkles, scars, and large pores.

The procedure is convenient: the total time all in is about two hours, and you will need to see an experienced medical professional for the procedure. You also may need to have a least four procedures for best results.

Microneedling is considered effective in treating scarring, wounds, acne, and even aging. Once you have it done, you will notice having brighter and firmer skin. Ideal results are achieved after having multiple sessions.

What is microneedling?


Microneedling is a cosmetic treatment that uses dozens of ultra-thin needles to treat and improve conditions like fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring, loose skin, skin texture, brown spots, pore size, stretch marks, and pigment issues. Microneedling is also known by a few other names, including percutaneous collagen induction (PCI), and more commonly, collagen induction therapy (CIT). The procedure is fit for almost everyone, except those who have any active infections, lesions, or any known wound healing problems.

Is microneedling good for your face?


Yes, microneedling is good for the face and produces many health benefits. It is a safe and effective procedure that can improve the appearance of the skin, including the reduction of wrinkles, diminishment of scarring, and tightening of loose or aging skin.

How long does it take your face to heal after microneedling?


Although each patient is different and will experience different results, healing from microneedling usually takes 24 hours. However, depending on the extent of the treatment and the severity of the condition being treated, it may take up to two to three days. Immediately after the procedure, patients are free to return to work or school and can wear makeup 24 hours after receiving the treatment.

What does microneedling do for your skin?


Microneedling has many health benefits for the skin, such as:

Reduces the Appearance of Fine Lines And Wrinkles — One of the biggest benefits of microneedling is that it minimizes wrinkles and fine lines, one of the most associated symptoms of aging.

Improves the Appearance of Scars — Microneedling also helps minimize scarring, producing a more even skin tone and texture.

Helps to Heal Sun-Damaged Skin — Although the sun can benefit our skin, it can be damaging in large amounts. Thankfully, microneedling can help reverse this damage.

Reverse the Signs of Aging — By combatting fine lines, wrinkles, and sun damage, microneedling produces anti-aging effects that can be enjoyed by people of all skin types.

Shrinks Pores — Although microneedling creates tiny punctures in the skin, it does not increase pore size; in fact, it actually reduces pore size, which helps to provide a more even skin texture.

Improves the Effectiveness of Topical Products — Microneedling is often used in tandem with other skincare products or therapies, such as PRP. Applying a topical product after microneedling, it allows the solution to be more readily absorbed, increasing its efficacy.

Fights Stretch Marks — Microneedling also reduces the appearance of stretch marks by stimulating the production of collagen.

Fewer Side Effects Than Laser or Intensive Peels — Lasers and chemical peels can produce great results, however, they often come with longer recovery periods and potential side effects. Microneedling, on the other hand, comes with minimal risk of complications or side effects and does not require downtime to recover.

Why should I choose microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that treats skin concerns through collagen production. The treatment may also help those looking to reduce the appearance of stretch marks and acne scars. It is also used in certain anti-aging procedures, like sunspots, and eyelid surgery.

What should I expect from my microneedling treatment?

There are some small side effects that you can expect following your microneedling treatment. Your skin may be flushed or bright red, almost like you have been out in the sun all day. The redness and swelling will last about 24 hours or maybe a bit longer. Even with careful aftercare, there is not much else you can do to get rid of the redness from microneedling. But it’s all worth it in the end. Have patience while the redness subsides. After this, you may experience skin peeling within 48 hours, and you might also get breakouts, dry skin or bumps, but they are par for the course with microneedling, however, not everyone will experience this, so taking care of your skin with moisturizer and gentle cleansers will help reduce side effects.

Where can microneedling be done?

Microneedling gets to work by encouraging your skin to make more collagen. The pinpricks cause some injury to the skin, but the skin responds back by making new collagen-rich tissue. The targeted areas for this procedure are acne scars, age spots, fine lines and wrinkles, reduced skin elasticity, and uneven skin tone. While it may be used to treat scarring on other body parts, it is primarily used on the face.

How many microneedling treatments does it take to see results?

Most people need between three and six treatments to see the final results of microneedling, and this all depends on people’s health and goals. Two treatments are good for younger people. Overall, results depend on your body’s cellular turnover rate, age, and how you have treated your skin in the past.

If you take care of your skin, then you should expect to see results last for a longer period of time. Most people enjoy results for up to 12 weeks, and if you keep your skin in good shape, then you may find longer-lasting results. If you want to extend your results, follow these tips: drink lots of water; get plenty of vitamins A, C, D, E, and all the B vitamins; don’t smoke, reduce your alcohol intake, and eat a diet that does not include sugar and processed foods. The more hydrated you are and the better you eat, your skin will be healthier.

You may need up to four treatments to get the results you desire. Make sure that you speak to your doctor about microneedling to get all the details, benefits, and aftercare tips. A doctor will walk you through the procedure and inform you of everything you need to know and will answer any questions you may have.
