Microneedling, or collagen induction therapy, uses a device with fine needles to create tiny micro-injuries in the skin. These controlled injuries trigger your body’s natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production for improved texture, tone, and firmness.

Ideal candidates want to improve fine lines, acne or surgical scars, enlarged pores, or uneven skin tone. It’s suitable for most skin types, but those with active infections, open wounds, or certain skin conditions should postpone until cleared by their dermatologist.

Common side effects include temporary redness, mild swelling, and light sensitivity. Serious complications are rare when performed by a trained professional. We’ll provide aftercare instructions to minimize risks and promote healing.

Downtime is minimal. Most patients have redness and slight swelling for 24–48 hours, after which you can resume normal activities. Makeup can usually be applied 24 hours post-treatment.

Avoid retinoids, exfoliating acids, and sun exposure for 3–5 days before treatment.

Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin.

Stay hydrated and discuss any skincare products you’re using with your provider.

You may notice immediate improvement in skin texture and glow, but collagen remodeling takes time. Most patients see significant results 4–6 weeks after their first session, with continual improvement over the following months.
