Medical Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), is a minimally invasive treatment designed to naturally rejuvenate the skin. Using a precision pen device with ultra-fine needles, tiny micro-channels are created in the skin’s surface.These controlled micro-injuries stimulate your body’s natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production from within. The result is smoother, firmer, and healthier-looking skin with improved texture and tone.
During treatment, a microneedling device glides across the skin, creating tiny micro-channels at a precise depth. These controlled micro-injuries trigger your body’s natural repair processstimulating fresh collagen and elastin production.
As your skin heals, it becomes firmer, smoother, and more refined. Over time, microneedling helps minimize the look of scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, and wrinkles, leaving your complexion plump, youthful, and radiant.
Right after your treatment, you may notice redness and mild swelling, similar to a light sunburn - for 24 to 48 hours. Some clients may also see tiny pin-point marks, which fade quickly.
Within the first week or two, your skin will begin to feel smoother and look more radiant. The most dramatic improvements develop gradually over the next few months as new collagen and elastin continue to rebuild beneath the surface.
For even more enhanced results, ask about combining microneedling with PRP (platelet-rich plasma).
Downtime is minimal. Most clients notice redness or a pinkish glow right after treatment, similar to a mild sunburn. This usually fades within 12 to 48 hours.
To support healing and comfort, I recommend applying a soothing hyaluronic acid serum and protecting your skin with a zinc-based sunscreen. If desired, mineral makeup can be used the next day to safely cover any residual redness.
Most clients find microneedling very tolerable. Before the treatment, a topical numbing cream can be applied to minimize discomfort. You may feel a light prickling or vibration sensation as the device moves across the skin, but it is not considered painful.
Clinical studies have shown that with proper numbing, the majority of patients rate the procedure as only mildly uncomfortable. The treatment is quick, and any sensitivity typically resolves immediately afterward.
Yes. Microneedling is safe and effective for all skin types and skin tones. Unlike certain laser or chemical treatments that may carry a risk of pigmentation changes, microneedling works by stimulating your body’s natural healing response without affecting skin pigmentation.
This makes it an excellent option for anyone seeking smoother texture, reduced scars, and firmer skin, regardless of skin color.
Microneedling can be safely repeated every 4 to 6 weeks until you achieve your desired results.
The exact number of treatments varies from person to person, based on your skin condition and how your body responds to collagen stimulation.
Microneedling can be performed not only on the face, but also on the neck, décolleté, arms, hands, and legs for full-body rejuvenation.
Pairing LED Light Therapy with microneedling enhances results while speeding up recovery. Red and near-infrared light stimulate collagen production, reduce inflammation, and calm redness, helping your skin heal faster and more evenly.
This add-on not only shortens downtime but also maximizes the benefits of microneedling—revealing smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin.
