Microneedling
Collagen Induction Therapy
Adding a growth-factor or PRP serum, or treating face plus neck, increases the price.
Duration
45-60 minutes
Downtime
2-3 days of redness and light flaking
Results Last
Cumulative over a series; each session's improvement continues for 4-6 weeks
Pain Level
Mild to moderate (3/10) — topical numbing is used
Microneedling, explained plainly.
Microneedling uses a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, which prompts the skin's own repair process and encourages new collagen production over the following weeks.
A single session can improve overall texture and tone, but this is a treatment built around a series — the best results usually show up after three to four sessions spaced about a month apart, not after one visit.
It can also be paired with a topical serum applied during treatment, which is absorbed more deeply because of the micro-channels the needles create.
Good candidates
- —Patients with acne scarring, enlarged pores, or uneven texture
- —Anyone comfortable committing to a series of sessions rather than a single visit for best results
- —Patients wanting a treatment that works across most skin tones with low pigmentation risk
Not a good candidate
- —Patients with active acne breakouts, which should be addressed before microneedling the same area
- —Anyone on isotretinoin (or who has been within the last 6 months)
- —Patients wanting immediate, one-visit results — that's closer to what a HydraFacial delivers
