What Happens During Microneedling?

Microneedling is a skin rejuvenation and skin plumping treatment, where the focus is on naturally stimulating collagen production in the skin. As we age and as our skin is exposed to pollution and chemicals, the skin starts to become damaged. Collagen, which is a naturally occurring ingredient in the skin, can be used to make the skin healthy, voluminous and elastic again.

In medical microneedling, tiny needles are used to create small punctures on the skin, simulating the conditions of injury. This will fool the body and jump-start collagen production in the skin, which will in turn regenerate fresh dermal cells and give volume and smoothness to the skin.

This treatment is minimally-invasive and the punctures are made only on the top layer of the skin.

How the Microneedling Procedure is Performed

In order to get the most out of medical microneedling, you are recommended to apply a serum that contains Vitamins A & C or a Hyaluronic Acid gel or a growth factor, for a month before the treatment. We will recommend the product you need to use for your skin type. If you have pigmentation, anti-pigmentation serum may also be provided. These agents will make your skin healthier and capable of producing the collagen it needs post-treatment.

On the day of the treatment, your provider will wipe your face clean using a special solution. A numbing agent may be applied on the face to ensure a pain-free experience. Next, the microneedles are used to prick the top layer of the skin. There may be very light bleeding at this time due to the skin being pricked with needles. However, this bleeding will stop within a minute or two.

The device used during this procedure is called the SkinPen. This is the first microneedling device approved by the FDA. This device is clinically proven to be safe and effectively stimulate the body’s natural healing process.

At Majestic Aesthetics, state-of-the-art and FDA-approved SkinPen microneedling technology is used to provide the treatment. This technology controls the extent of the injury to the skin and leaves behind no scarring. It is the ideal microneedling tool to use if you have scars on your face. The SkinPen just remodels your skin, while retaining its structural integrity.

The entire microneedling session may take about 30 minutes, depending on the extent of the treatment. Once it is complete, your face will be gently cleaned with a cleaning solution and we may even apply an ice pack to reduce any swelling and bruising.

What are the Benefits of Microneedling to the Skin?

The greatest benefit of the microneedling process is that it is minimally-invasive. The micro needles only enter the top layer of the skin, ensuring your skin isn’t scarred or damaged. This skin rejuvenation procedure has been found to drastically improve the quality and appearance of the skin, by reducing the appearance of:

Fine lines
Wrinkles
Dark circles
Skin spots
Pigmentation

Discoloration
Scars
Stretch marks
Large open pores

The collagen produced as a result of medical microneedling will also provide your skin with volume, elasticity and tightness. So age-related droopiness will also reduce considerably after the treatment. The vitamin-enriched serums and hyaluronic acid, along with the collagen give the skin a healthy glow and make you look younger and more beautiful.

Microneedling vs the PRP Facial

Both microneedling and the PRP facial use micro needles to stimulate collagen production in the skin. But a vital difference between the two treatments is the usage of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the PRP facial.

In the microneedling treatment, your provider will use synthetic serums to prepare your skin and then use micro needles to provide the treatment. A final layer of collagen is applied on your face.

However, in the PRP facial, your blood is collected, the PRP concentrate is prepared from the blood using a centrifuge and this PRP concentrate is re-administered into your face after performing microneedling. Both treatments provide similar results. But, microneedling is the perfect treatment if you are ineligible to or you do not wish to undergo the PRP facial treatment.

Who is a Good Candidate for Microneedling Treatment?

The great thing about microneedling is that almost anyone can undergo this treatment. There is no age limit for it. Plus, people of all ethnicities can undergo this treatment, since it does not cause any discoloration of the skin.

Additionally, compared to other facial rejuvenation treatments, microneedling is a more affordable and less time consuming procedure. It takes about 30 minutes to complete the entire treatment. This makes it perfect for people who are short on time or who wish to get the treatment done under a budget.

However, microneedling may not be an ideal treatment for you if you have any skin infections or skin cancer. If you do have a skin condition, it’s best to seek medical advice before you schedule the treatment.

Caring for Your Skin After Microneedling Treatment

Microneedling treatment is a very safe and gentle procedure. Your skin may be mildly bruised, swollen or tender immediately after the treatment. But these symptoms should subside within 24 hours. Any redness of the skin will also reduce within 48 hours. It is recommended that you wash your face with plain water. You should also avoid using cosmetics for the first 12 hours. We will inform you about which types of products to avoid while the regeneration phase is ongoing.

The results of the microneedling can take up to 6-8 weeks to fully manifest. However, you will see that your skin will begin to look brighter, more youthful and healthier almost immediately after the treatment. Depending on the results you desire, you may be asked to undergo another session of the treatment after 4-6 weeks. Our Nurse Practitioner will assess your skin and provide a customized treatment plan for you.
