With a huge variety of skin rejuvenation options, it can be tough to choose the option that is best for you. Non-surgical alternatives to treatments like a facelift are continually increasing in number, enabling patients to achieve a youthful appearance without the scars, surgery, and lengthy downtime. One of these treatments is microneedling, an effective rejuvenation treatment that restores the skin by creating tiny punctures in the skin’s surface.

How Does Microneedling Work?

Microneedling, as the name suggests, uses microscopic needles to create hundreds of punctures in the skin’s surface. Although this sounds counter-intuitive, these tiny wounds trigger the body’s natural healing response and stimulate collagen production. As a result, the body rapidly heals these punctures and delivers numerous rejuvenation benefits to the skin.

What Can Be Treated With Microneedling?

With microneedling, patients can address numerous skin concerns, including:

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Scars, including those from acne
• Uneven skin tone or texture
• Stretch marks
• Sun damage
• Enlarged pores

Is Microneedling Painful?

Microneedling can be slightly uncomfortable for some patients, which is why it is almost always performed using a topical anesthetic. This will minimize any discomfort from treatment and allow patients to relax during the treatment process.

When Will I Notice Results from Microneedling?

After a microneedling treatment, you will notice gradual improvements in the tone and texture of the skin for several weeks following treatment. This is largely due to the increase in collagen, which will continue to provide rejuvenation benefits long after you have recovered from treatment. Most patients notice significant rejuvenation results within a month or two of treatment and enjoy continued results for up to six months.
