Microneedling is among the most popular and effective skin-enhancing treatments. A regular microneedling treatment can smooth uneven skin from acne scarring, diminish the look of wrinkles and fine lines, and leave your skin looking healthy and glowing. Microneedling works by triggering natural collagen and elastin production along with skin cell regeneration to leave you with a more youthful look.
What areas of the body can be firmed with microneedling?
While you may consider microneedling to be a facial procedure, this approach for skin rejuvenation can also be used on a range of body areas to create firmer, more resilient skin, including:
- Face
- Around the eyes
- Mouth
- Chest
- Hands
- Arms
- Scalp
- Neck
- Legs
- Knees
- Abdomen
- Back
How many treatments will I need?
Because microneedling is gentle and progressive, it requires a series of sessions spaced out over several months. With each session, the results will build as your complexion transforms. Those with acne scars will usually need between six and eight sessions. Our comprehensive skin evaluation process will help us tell you how many treatments you may need to achieve your vision of healthy, glowing skin.
What is the recovery time after microneedling?
In the hours and days that follow microneedling, your skin may feel tighter than usual. It may also be extra sensitive to the sun, so you will want to protect your skin with sunblock and a sunhat. Avoid touching your skin during healing and apply the skincare products and moisturizers we recommend, so you enjoy the best outcome.
