Microneedling

Microneedling is effective for:

• Fine lines and wrinkles

• Acne scars

• Enlarged pores

• Uneven skin tone and texture

• Stretch marks

A series of 3 to 6 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, is recommended for best results. Maintenance treatments can be performed every 6-12 months.

Microneedling is not suitable for:

• Pregnant women

• Individuals with active acne or skin infections/conditions in the treatment area

• Those with a history of keloid scars

• Those using retinoids or acne medication (consultation required)

This gold standard treatment offers the following benefits:

• Boosts collagen production for a firmer, smoother complexion.

• Reduces the visibility of acne scars, surgical scars, and stretch marks.

• Lightens dark spots and promotes an even complexion.

• Reduces pore size for a smoother, more polished texture.

• Non-invasive treatment with little to no recovery time.

To ensure the best results and minimize potential irritation or side effects, follow these guidelines before your microneedling treatment:

• Stay out of direct sunlight and avoid tanning (including self-tanners) for at least 5–7 days before treatment. Always wear SPF 30+.

• Stop using retinoids, AHAs, BHAs, Vitamin C, and other active ingredients at least 5–7 days before your session.

• Avoid blood-thinning medications like aspirin and ibuprofen for 24–48 hours, unless prescribed by a doctor. Consult your provider about any medications you are taking.

• No waxing, threading, sugaring, laser hair removal, or depilatory creams on the treatment area for at least one week before microneedling.

• Drink plenty of water and keep your skin moisturized leading up to the treatment.

• Avoid chemical peels, laser treatments, facials, or dermaplaning for at least 1–2 weeks before microneedling.

• Reduce consumption of alcohol 24 hours prior to minimize inflammation and sensitivity.

• Disclose any history of cold sores, acne, skin conditions, allergies, or recent cosmetic procedures to avoid complications.

Maximize your skin investment with our post care protocols:

• Maintain skin hydration with a light, non-clogging moisturizer.

• Protect your skin from UV damage with a broad-spectrum sunscreen.

• Avoid using strong chemicals or exfoliants like retinol for 3-7 days (depending on the treatment you received).

• Give your skin time to heal and skip strenuous activities like excessive gym time for at least 48 hours.

Mild redness or sensitivity may occur post-treatment, typically subsiding within a few days. Microneedling can be combined with other treatments for enhanced results.
