FAQs
What is microneedling?
Microneedling stimulates collagen production in the skin using minimally invasive methods.
How does microneedling work?
Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure in which tiny sterilized needles are inserted into the skin. The small wounds caused by the microneedling cause your body to produce more collagen and elastin. This helps you look younger. It’s also called collagen induction therapy.
Who is a good candidate for microneedling?
Microneedling is a safe procedure for almost everyone.
How soon will I see the results?
The advantage of this treatment is that patients usually see some improvement within a week and more dramatic changes within three to four weeks.
How long should my results last?
Your results will likely last between three and five months. Follow-up treatments are usually scheduled twice a year to maintain results. Proper Skincare may result in longer-lasting results.
How many microneedling treatment sessions will I need?
The average person usually needs between three and six treatments. Younger people usually only need one to two treatments.
Is there any recovery or downtime?
A microneedling treatment usually heals within 24 hours. Depending on the extent of treatment, it can take up to three days. After your treatment, you can return to work or school immediately and wear makeup for 24 hours afterward.
