What is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that uses tiny, sterile needles to create micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the body to produce collagen and elastin, two essential proteins responsible for maintaining the skin's structure, strength, and elasticity. As a result, microneedling can help improve the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation while promoting overall skin health.

The Microneedling Process

1. Consultation

During your initial consultation at Ageless Beauty Medspa, our microneedling expert will assess your skin to determine if this treatment is right for you. They will also explain the procedure and discuss your individual skin concerns and goals.

2. Preparation

Before the microneedling process begins, your skin will be thoroughly cleansed and a topical numbing cream will be applied to ensure a comfortable experience. The numbing cream needs approximately 30 minutes to take effect.

3. Treatment

Once the numbing cream has been removed, our expert will use a microneedling device to create tiny punctures in the skin. The device contains multiple microscopic needles that vibrate at a high speed, allowing for an even distribution of the microscopic punctures and minimal discomfort.

4. Post-Treatment

After microneedling, you might experience some redness and mild swelling, similar to a sunburn. To soothe the skin, a hyaluronic acid serum or a specialized aftercare product will be applied. These products will enhance the effects of the microneedling treatment, providing added hydration and nutrients to your skin.

Benefits of Microneedling

1. Reduces fine lines and wrinkles

By stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin, microneedling can help to improve skin texture and make fine lines and wrinkles less visible.

2. Improves acne scars

By breaking down existing scar tissue and promoting new, healthy collagen production, microneedling can help to improve the appearance of acne scars and other types of skin imperfections.

3. Evens skin tone and reduces hyperpigmentation

Microneedling can help address uneven skin tone and reduce hyperpigmentation by stimulating cellular turnover and promoting a more uniform complexion.

4. Enhances the absorption of skin care products

By creating micro-channels in the skin, microneedling can improve the absorption of skin care products, allowing them to penetrate deeper and provide greater benefits.

Microneedling Aftercare Tips

1. Stay hydrated

Drink plenty of water and keep your skin moisturized to support the healing process and maintain your radiant glow.

2. Avoid direct sun exposure

Protect your skin from the sun by wearing a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30. Limit your sun exposure for at least one week after your treatment.

3. Avoid using harsh cleansers or exfoliants

Use gentle, hydrating cleansers and avoid harsh scrubs, chemical exfoliants, or retinol products for at least five days after your microneedling treatment.

4. Don't pick at your skin

Although it may be tempting, resist the urge to pick at your skin or any scabs that may form. This can cause scarring and delay your skin's healing process.
