What Is MicroNeedling?

MicroNeedling is a highly effective skincare treatment that utilizes advanced devices like the MicroPen EVO® to promote skin rejuvenation and address various dermatological concerns. The MicroPen EVO® is a state-of-the-art micro-needling device that consists of a series of tiny, sterile needles that create controlled micro-injuries on the skin's surface. These micro-injuries trigger the skin's natural healing response, stimulating collagen and elastin production. The MicroPen EVO®'s adjustable needle depth allows for customization, ensuring optimal results for each individual's unique skin concerns, whether it's reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improving skin texture, or minimizing scars and hyperpigmentation.

The MicroPen EVO® is suitable for addressing a range of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven skin tone. By activating the body's natural healing processes, this innovative device helps to enhance overall skin health and promote a more youthful and radiant appearance. Whether it's used as a standalone treatment or in combination with other skincare procedures, the MicroPen EVO® offers a safe and effective solution for achieving smoother, healthier-looking skin.

MicroNeedling With PRP?

MicroNeedling without PRP involves the use of a micro-needling device, such as the RejuvaPen or the MicroPen EVO®, to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin's surface. This process stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, leading to improved skin texture, reduced fine lines and wrinkles, and diminished scars or hyperpigmentation. The micro-channels created during the treatment also enhance the absorption of topical serums and products, maximizing their effectiveness.


On the other hand, MicroNeedling with PRP involves incorporating PRP into the treatment. Before the micro-needling procedure, a small amount of your blood is drawn and processed to isolate the platelet-rich plasma. PRP contains a concentrated amount of growth factors, proteins, and cytokines that support tissue regeneration and wound healing. During the micro-needling session, the PRP is applied topically to the skin or injected into specific areas. The micro-channels created by the needles allow the PRP to penetrate deeper into the skin, delivering its rejuvenating properties directly to the targeted areas.


The addition of PRP to MicroNeedling can further enhance the results by promoting faster healing, increased collagen production, and improved overall skin rejuvenation. The growth factors in PRP stimulate cell turnover and tissue repair, leading to a more significant improvement in skin texture, tone, and firmness. This treatment is commonly referred to as the Vampire Facial.

MicroNeedling FAQ?

  • What is MicroNeedling?

    MicroNeedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a specialized device with tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin's surface. This process stimulates the skin's natural healing response, leading to collagen and elastin production, and ultimately improving the skin's texture, tone, and overall appearance.

  • What are the benefits of MicroNeedling?

     MicroNeedling offers a range of benefits, including improved skin texture, reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, diminished acne scars, minimized hyperpigmentation, enhanced skin firmness, and a more youthful complexion. It can be performed on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, décolleté, hands, and even stretch marks on the body.

  • How is MicroNeedling performed?

     The procedure begins with the application of a numbing cream to ensure a comfortable experience. Then, a specialized device like the RejuvaPen or the MicroPen EVO® is gently moved over the skin, creating controlled micro-injuries. The depth of the needles can be adjusted based on individual needs and skin concerns. Following the treatment, a soothing serum or moisturizer may be applied to aid in healing and hydration.

  • Is MicroNeedling painful?

    While individual pain tolerance can vary, most people find MicroNeedling to be well-tolerated. The use of a numbing cream before the procedure helps minimize any discomfort. Some clients may experience mild redness, sensitivity, or a sensation similar to a sunburn immediately after the treatment, but these effects typically subside within a few hours to a few days.

  • How many sessions are needed, and when will I see results?

    The number of sessions required depends on individual goals and skin condition. For general skin rejuvenation, a series of three to six treatments spaced four to six weeks apart is often recommended. However, noticeable improvements can often be seen even after a single session. Results continue to improve over time as collagen remodeling takes place, with optimal results typically visible a few months after the final session.

  • Is there any downtime associated with MicroNeedling?

    MicroNeedling is considered a minimally invasive treatment with minimal downtime. Immediately after the procedure, your skin may appear slightly red or flushed, similar to a mild sunburn. This typically resolves within a day or two. Some clients may experience mild peeling or flaking as the skin undergoes the rejuvenation process. It is essential to follow post-treatment instructions provided by your skincare professional to promote healing and protect the skin.


    ​

  • Can MicroNeedling be combined with other treatments?

    Yes, MicroNeedling can be combined with other treatments such as PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), topical serums, or even laser therapies, depending on your specific goals and the recommendations of your skincare professional. Combining treatments may further enhance results and address specific concerns.
