Microneedling is mostly used on the face and may reduce the appearance of acne, scars, dark spots, wrinkles, and large pores.
At The Dermatician, we believe that every advanced procedure should be part of a thoughtful, long-term skincare strategy. While microneedling can be highly effective, it is not a one-size-fits-all solution. A professional consultation is a crucial first step to:
Assess Your Suitability: We analyze your skin type, history, and concerns to determine if microneedling is the right and safest option for you.
Manage Expectations: We provide a realistic outlook on the potential results you can expect based on your individual skin.
Develop a Supporting Plan: We create a comprehensive pre- and post-procedure care plan to maximize your results and ensure a smooth recovery.
Improved skin texture and reduced appearance of fine lines.
Diminished appearance of acne scars and other textural irregularities.
Reduced size of pores.
A generally firmer and more youthful-looking complexion.
It is not suitable for everyone, especially those with active acne, skin infections, or certain skin conditions like eczema or rosacea without expert clearance.
Choosing a qualified, experienced, and insured practitioner to perform the procedure is essential for safety and effectiveness.
Temporary redness, swelling, and sensitivity are normal parts of the recovery process.
Post-procedure care is critical for achieving the best results. Immediately following a session, the skin will typically appear red and may feel tight, similar to a moderate sunburn. This usually subsides significantly within 24-48 hours.
A proper aftercare routine, which we can help you design, involves using gentle, hydrating products, avoiding direct sun exposure, and wearing broad-spectrum SPF sunscreen diligently to protect the healing skin. Results are typically not immediate and appear gradually over several weeks as the new collagen is produced.
Deciding to undergo an advanced procedure like microneedling is a significant step. It should be an informed decision made as part of a comprehensive skincare plan.
To discuss if microneedling aligns with your specific skin goals, and to create a supportive strategy for pre- and post-procedure care, we invite you to schedule a personal consultation with us.
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure for your skin. Your healthcare provider uses thin needles to make tiny holes in the top layer of your skin. The damage helps stimulate your skin’s healing process, so it produces more collagen and elastin. These proteins keep your skin firm and smooth.
