What Is Microneedling?

Microneediing utilizes a device to create millions of microscopic targeted injuries to the skin. This process creates a targeted micro-injury to the skin and address a multitude of skin issues simultaneously.

What Can Microneedling Do?

One of the biggest strengths with this procedure is its versatility and safety profile. Microneedling can be performed in all skin tones. Down time can be as short as 24-48 hours or closer to 5-7 days with a more intensive treatment - this can be customized at the time of your procedure. The procedure results in increased collagen stimulation and decrease fine lines, texture, and pore size. It can also help to improve the appearance of scarring.
