What to expect

Microneedling promotes the body’s own healing response naturally stimulate skin rejuvenation and renewal. Prior to the procedure, a topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area. This improves patient comfort during the procedure. During treatment, a series of fine needles are passed over the treatment area. These needles create tiny micro-channels in the dermal layer of the skin. These micro-channels allow the surface of the skin to remain intact, but are large enough to infuse growth factors, blood serum, or other healing materials deeper into the skin. Patients should allow a few days to resume their normal exercise and skin care routine as micro-channels created are healing.
