The process
What happens during your microneedling appointment
Consultation & prep
We assess your skin and discuss your goals. Then we cleanse your face and apply a numbing cream to ensure your comfort.
Numbing time
We let the numbing cream sit for 20-30 minutes so you'll be comfortable during treatment.
Microneedling
Using a specialized device, we create controlled micro-injuries in your skin. This triggers your body's natural healing and collagen production.
Serum & recovery
We apply a healing serum to nourish your skin. Your face will be red (like a sunburn) for 1-2 days.
Follow-up
For best results, we recommend 3-6 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
Timeline & results
What to expect after your microneedling treatment
Days 1-3: Initial healing
Your skin will be red and may feel tight, similar to a sunburn. Avoid makeup for 24 hours and use only gentle, approved products.
Days 3-7: Peeling phase
You may experience light flaking or peeling as your skin renews itself. Keep your skin moisturized and avoid picking.
Weeks 2-4: Glow begins
You'll notice your skin looking brighter and more even. This is when the "glow" starts to appear.
Weeks 4-6: Full results
Collagen production peaks around 4-6 weeks. You'll see improved texture, reduced scarring, and firmer skin.
Months 4-6: Maintenance
Results last 4-6 months. Many people do a series of 3-6 treatments for optimal, long-lasting results.
Frequently asked questions
Does microneedling hurt?
We apply numbing cream beforehand, so most people feel only mild pressure or tingling. The sensation is tolerable and the results are worth it.
How is this different from dermarolling at home?
Professional microneedling goes deeper and is more controlled than at-home devices. We use medical-grade equipment in a sterile environment for better, safer results.
Can I wear makeup after treatment?
Wait at least 24 hours before applying makeup. Your skin needs time to heal and close the micro-channels created during treatment.
How many treatments do I need?
Most people see good results with 3-6 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. We'll create a personalized plan during your consultation.
Can I do this if I have active acne?
We need to wait until active breakouts are healed. Microneedling is great for acne scars, but treating active acne could spread bacteria.
