The purpose of the microneedling treatment is to stimulate new collagen and skin tissue for smoother, firmer, more toned skin. Microneedling is most often used on your face to target:
- Acne scars
- Age spots
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Large pores
- Other types of scars
- Reduced skin elasticity
- Uneven skin tone
Treatment Recovery
Before getting started a topical anesthetic is applied to insure comfort. The microneedling process takes approximately 30-60 minutes.
Microneedling isn’t an invasive procedure. You may notice skin irritation and redness within the first few days following the procedure. You can go back to work or school after the procedure if you’re comfortable. Your skin will also be more sensitive to the sun, so sunscreen is a must.
Treatment Results
After microneedling, your skin works quickly to stimulate new baby like skin cells. You will begin to see results within a few days.
To maintain the results of your treatment, you’ll need multiple sessions and perhaps other complementing treatments. Marianne will advise you on the best plan of action based on your individual goals.
