Smoother, firmer, healthier-looking skin starts with collagen. Microneedling creates controlled microchannels in the skin that stimulate your body’s natural healing response, helping improve texture, tone, scarring, and signs of aging. It’s one of the most effective treatments for clients looking to refresh their skin with minimal downtime.

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a collagen-induction treatment that uses tiny, controlled needles to create microchannels within the skin. This process stimulates the body’s natural repair response, encouraging new collagen and elastin production for smoother, healthier-looking skin.

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Uneven skin texture

What to Expect

  • Consultation: Your provider will evaluate your skin concerns and determine whether microneedling is the right treatment for your goals. Treatment plans are often customized based on concerns such as acne scarring, texture, or signs of aging.
  • Treatment: A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to maximize comfort. During the procedure, a microneedling device creates controlled microchannels within the skin to stimulate collagen production. PRP may also be recommended to further enhance results.
  • Recovery: Your skin may appear pink or red, similar to a mild sunburn, for several days following treatment. Mild dryness, tightness, or flaking is also common as the skin begins its renewal process.

Microneedling FAQS

While facials focus on cleansing, exfoliation, and hydration, microneedling stimulates collagen production within the skin to address concerns such as texture, acne scars, and signs of aging.

Traditional microneedling stimulates collagen through controlled micro-injuries in the skin, while Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy for additional skin tightening and remodeling.

Because redness and mild peeling may occur, we generally recommend scheduling treatment at least 2-4 weeks before an important event.

Interested in even greater collagen stimulation? Many clients pair Microneedling with PRP or upgrade to Morpheus8® for additional tightening benefits.
