Microneedling for Collagen Support & Skin Renewal

A minimally invasive treatment designed to support smoother texture, improved tone, and firmer-looking skin through natural collagen stimulation.

How It Works

Microneedling creates precise, controlled micro-injuries in the skin.

In response, the body initiates a repair process that includes:

  • Increased collagen production

  • Enhanced elastin support

  • Improved circulation

  • Accelerated cellular turnover

As the skin rebuilds, many clients notice smoother texture, firmer appearance, and improved clarity over several weeks.

What to Expect

Before Treatment

  • A consultation is completed to assess skin goals and suitability.

  • Skin is cleansed.

  • A topical numbing cream is applied for comfort.

During Treatment

  • A professional microneedling device is passed across the treatment area.

  • The session typically lasts 30–60 minutes depending on the area treated.

  • Targeted serums may be applied to support hydration and healing.

Immediately After

  • Skin may appear red, similar to a mild sunburn.

  • Mild swelling and warmth are common.

  • Most redness subsides within 24–48 hours.

You’ll be given aftercare instructions, including temporary avoidance of makeup, sun exposure, and active skincare products.

In the Weeks Following

  • Light peeling or dryness may occur.

  • Gradual improvement becomes visible as collagen production increases.

  • Best results are typically seen with a series of treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart.

Skin improvement can continue for several months following treatment.

Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin treatment that supports your skin’s natural renewal process. Using a device equipped with fine, sterile needles, controlled micro-channels are created in the skin’s surface.

These micro-channels stimulate collagen and elastin production—two proteins that contribute to firmness, elasticity, and structural support.

Microneedling is often chosen by clients seeking gradual, natural-looking improvements in skin tone, texture, and overall appearance.


Frequently Asked Questions

Is microneedling safe?

When performed by trained professionals using sterile equipment, microneedling is considered safe for appropriate candidates. A consultation is required to evaluate your skin and determine suitability.

How much downtime is there?

Most clients experience redness for 24–48 hours. Some may notice mild peeling or dryness for several days. Social downtime is minimal, but proper aftercare is essential.

How many treatments will I need?

Some clients see improvement after one session, but a series of 3–6 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart is often recommended for more significant texture concerns.

Does microneedling hurt?

A topical numbing cream is applied prior to treatment to increase comfort. Most clients describe the sensation as manageable.

When will I see results?
