Microneedling Treatment

Boost Collagen and Rejuvenate Your Skin with Microneedling

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a powerful treatment designed to promote skin regeneration and boost collagen production. Using the MD Pen medical-grade device with stainless steel needles, this non-ablative treatment creates micro-channels in the skin, allowing for the application of serums or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to enhance results. Whether you’re looking to reduce wrinkles, diminish acne scars, or improve overall skin texture, microneedling offers a safe and effective solution with little downtime.
Concerns: Acne Scars ⸱ Dull Skin Tone ⸱ Uneven Skin Texture
Treatment Areas: Full Face ⸱ Hands/Feet ⸱ Neck

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling creates tiny, controlled punctures in the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing response. This process increases cellular regeneration and collagen production, resulting in firmer, smoother skin. The treatment is perfect for addressing issues such as wrinkles, photoaging, enlarged pores, acne scars, and stretch marks. At Skin Thesis, we offer personalized microneedling treatments to deliver maximum results for each client’s unique needs. Serums or PRP can be applied during the treatment to further enhance skin healing and rejuvenation.

Benefits of Microneedling Treatment:

  • Stimulates Collagen Production: Promotes the natural production of collagen, leading to firmer, more youthful-looking skin.
  • Reduces Wrinkles and Fine Lines: Smooths out the skin’s surface, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Improves Skin Texture: Reduces pore size and improves overall skin texture, leaving the skin smoother and more even.
  • Treats Scarring: Effectively diminishes acne scars, surgical scars, and stretch marks.
  • Minimal Downtime: Non-ablative treatment with a relatively quick recovery time.

Pricing

Microneedling treatments at Skin Thesis start at $350 and are $450 for a full face. Additional treatments, such as Microneedling with Cosmelan ($700) and Microneedling with PRP ($900), are also available. Schedule your consultation today to learn more about the best option for your skin’s needs.

Before the Treatment

To ensure optimal results, please follow these pre-treatment instructions:
  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Avoid prolonged sun exposure for at least one week prior to your treatment​.
  • Stop Certain Skincare Products: Discontinue the use of retinoids, glycolic acid, and other exfoliating or active skincare products 48-72 hours before treatment to prevent irritation​.
  • Avoid Blood Thinners: Refrain from taking anti-inflammatory or blood-thinning medications, such as Vitamin E, fish oil, and ginkgo biloba, for 48 hours before your treatment​.
  • Limit Alcohol: Avoid consuming alcoholic beverages for at least 24-48 hours prior to your treatment​.
  • Take Pain Relief: Consider taking Tylenol or Advil 30 minutes before your appointment to ease any potential discomfort​.
  • Medical History: Inform your practitioner of any pertinent medical history or allergies prior to treatment​.

During the Treatment

Your microneedling treatment at Skin Thesis will be performed by one of our experienced skincare professionals:
  • Procedure Duration: The treatment typically takes 30-45 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.
  • Microneedling Application: Using the MD Pen medical-grade device, tiny micro-channels are created in the skin, stimulating the natural healing process. During the treatment, your practitioner will apply specialized serums or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to further boost collagen production and improve skin rejuvenation.
  • Comfort and Sensation: Numbing cream is applied before the treatment to ensure your comfort. Most patients report minimal discomfort, often described as a light prickling sensation.
  • Post-Treatment Expectations: After the procedure, your skin may appear red and feel sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn. This typically resolves within a few days. Typically, after 3 days, you can experience dry, flakey skin for additional 2-3 days.

After the Treatment

Proper aftercare is crucial to ensure the best results from your microneedling treatment. Follow these post-treatment instructions:
  • Avoid Sun/Heat Exposure: For seven days post-treatment, avoid direct sun exposure and activities that cause excessive heat or sweating, such as saunas and hot tubs. Use a high-SPF sunscreen and wear protective clothing when outdoors for the first two weeks​.
  • No Makeup: Refrain from applying makeup for at least 24 hours after treatment to allow your skin to heal properly​.
  • Gentle Skincare: Stick to gentle skincare products and avoid harsh or active ingredients for at least one week after the procedure​.
  • Hydrate and Moisturize: Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer such as Alastin Nectar or Dermal Repair to keep the treated area hydrated and promote healing​.
  • Avoid Scrubbing: Do not pick, scratch, or rub the treated area, as this can lead to scarring or hyperpigmentation​.
  • Healing Process: Redness and mild swelling are common after treatment and typically last for 24-48 hours. Some skin flaking may occur within 5-7 days as part of the healing process​.
  • Pain Relief: Over-the-counter medications like Tylenol or Advil can help with any discomfort​.
  • Additional Treatments: For best results, we recommend three treatments spaced four weeks apart, with maintenance sessions every six months​.
