By gently penetrating the surface of the skin, microneedling causes micro-wounds that must then be naturally healed by the skin cells. This natural healing process stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which are the two main components that allow skin to look healthy, youthful, and radiant. As we age, collagen and elastin production gradually decline, which is why our skin starts to lose some of that volume and structure, so increasing the production of both provides patients with a beautiful, refreshed complexion.
Microneedling is a very effective and popular treatment that is used to rejuvenate the surface of the skin. It can be combined with other treatments such as chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or platelet-rich plasma therapy to further boost the benefits provided by them. Patients will often receive microneedling treatments if they wish to have tighter, smoother, younger-looking skin that is free of unwanted texture and pigmentation. Since the treatment uses the skin’s natural ability to heal itself through increased production of collagen and elastin, the results are very natural, developing gradually as the skin cells heal, and are long-lasting. Microneedling is commonly used as an anti-aging treatment, as a method to reduce the appearance of blemishes or acne scarring in the skin, and can reduce the appearance of age or sun spots to further provide a youthful, smooth complexion.
Depending on the initial condition of the skin and the final desired results, many patients are able to enjoy their results for several months before needing a maintenance appointment to further prolong the results. The majority of patients will require around 3 to 6 initial build-up treatments spaced around 2 to 6 weeks apart in order to achieve their desired results, which will allow the patient to go several months in between sessions once they have reached the maintenance phase before noticing that the results start to diminish. Some of the younger patients with healthier skin are able to go up to 12 months before noticing that they require a maintenance appointment. The exact amount of time that patients are able to go before requiring their next maintenance appointment heavily depends on the overall condition of their skin, including any pre-existing signs of aging, as well as the severity of their skin concern for which they are receiving treatment.
Since microneedling functions to stimulate increased production of collagen and elastin, it is able to provide benefits for a variety of skin conditions in just a single treatment, improving the overall texture and tone of the skin, both of which are the root of all skin concerns. This means that microneedling has proven to be beneficial for almost all skin conditions, including minimizing stretchmarks or scars placed anywhere on the surface of the skin, and reducing the appearance of hyperpigmentation such as rosacea or sun spots. Many other treatments that provide similar results as microneedling come with the risk of causing discoloration or damage to the surrounding skin cells, which makes them bad treatment options for those with darker skin tones as they will be at an increased risk of visible discoloration. Since it does not require laser or light therapy, or specific ingredients that are known for carrying a risk of discoloration, microneedling is a completely safe and often ideal treatment option for patients of any skin tone.
Almost anyone who is in good health does not have any serious underlying health conditions, and is in search of effective and safe skin resurfacing will be an excellent candidate to receive microneedling treatments. The only exceptions include those who have health conditions or skin conditions that cause them to have a weakened immune system, very sensitive skin (eczema or diabetes), an open wound on the skin that would be treated, suffer from a blood clotting or bleeding disorder, or who is taking medication that results in thinned blood. If you are unsure if you are a good candidate to receive microneedling treatments, it is always recommended that you check with your physician or microneedling provider to ensure that it will be a safe and effective treatment option for you.
