What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that treats skin concerns by producing stimulating collagen. Also called “collagen induction therapy,” it’s a minimally invasive procedure that uses sterilized miniature needles to create micro-punctures in the skin. Basically, microneedling is pricking the skin with needles.

Is It Different From Micropenning?

Micropenning is similar to microneedling as it also instigates the process of skin rejuvenation. However, the latter is a more intense procedure, which means more significant skin improvement. Microneedling also takes a longer recovery time.

When Did It Start?

Dr. Desmond Fernandes in Philadelphia was the first to use microneedling in 1995. Microneedling was initially for wrinkles and scar treatment, using hypodermic needles. The procedure underwent many clinical studies and eventually became a successful treatment for other skin conditions.

Now, microneedling is available at various dermatology and aesthetic clinics. For medical or cosmetic purposes, microneedling trusts and maximizes the body’s natural healing process, giving people a safe and affordable skin treatment.

How Does It Work?

The body is pushed to create more collagen and elastin by creating minor wounds on the skin. The two are responsible for healing the skin and making it look younger.

The procedure starts with applying a numbing cream to the area. The dermatologist or aesthetician will then use the rolling tool with tiny, sterilized needles around the area, pricking and creating small cuts on the skin. Warning! There will be a bit of bleeding.

Your body will then start its healing process. It produces and sends collagen and elastin to heal minor cuts, resulting in smoother and younger-looking skin.

What Does It Do?

Microneedling can treat the following skin issues:

Acne
Fine lines or wrinkles
Hyperpigmentation
Large pores
Scars
Sun damage
Stretch marks

Microneedling reduces the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, and stretch marks on the skin. It also reduces enlarged pores. The procedure is also known to smoothen uneven skin tone, lightens dark spots, and improve skin elasticity.

Moreover, a 2021 review showed the procedure’s potential in treating hair loss or alopecia. It needs more research, but based on the known benefits and effects of microneedling, it’s not impossible to give people with hair loss problems another option soon.

Is It Safe?

Because microneedling is minimally invasive, people in overall good health can go through the procedure. It has been made available in dermatology and aesthetic clinics because it has been proven safe through studies and tests. However, if you do microneedling on your own at home or with someone who isn’t properly trained for the procedure, it might be harmful to you and your skin.

Home microneedling kits or rollers have also become a popular option. Some opt to do the procedure on their own instead of trusting a professional because it is more affordable and convenient. Unfortunately, home rollers present more risk. There will be higher chances of getting infected and wounded.

Home rollers are also not as effective as the microneedling procedures in clinics. Home kits usually use duller needles that can only stimulate blood vessels temporarily. For guaranteed safety and efficacy, choose microneedling with a licensed dermatologist, medical spa, or aesthetician.

Microneedling is not recommended for those with keloids and certain acne medications. If you have active acne or moderate to severe psoriasis or eczema, it’s best to consult with a licensed medical doctor first. Microneedling is generally safe, but there are risks that only trained professionals can determine.

What Are the Risks?

Like any other cosmetic procedure, microneedling has risks. Before going through the procedure, be ready for the following side effects:

Pain and redness
Bruising and bleeding
Peeling
Scarring
Infection

Pain and redness are two of the most common risks of microneedling. You may experience minor discomfort after the procedure, and your face or the area that went through the procedure may be red for a couple of days. Bruising and bleeding are not very common in microneedling, but they can happen, especially with deep treatments. The peeling occurs when your skin starts to heal. It’s normal, and it’d be best to leave your skin be when it’s peeling.

Scarring can happen specifically to those who have had keloids before. And lastly, infections from microneedling occur when the equipment isn’t clean. Post-procedure instructions to keep your skin safe from infections are also extremely important!

Is Our Newport Beach Microneedling a Quick Fix?

Our Secret RF microneedling in Newport Beach takes about ten to 30 minutes per session. And while the session is quick, it will take more time to see the results. No, microneedling is not a quick fix. Your body has a natural healing process, which may last for days or weeks. The healing period also depends on how deep the treatment is!

A single microneedling session is often not enough to achieve your desired effects. In fact, just one session may not show noticeable changes in your skin. Microneedling definitely requires patience, commitment, and a budget.

Common Areas for Microneedling

Microneedling is a skin treatment that’s commonly done on the face. It can also be used on other body parts with stretch marks and scars. According to the National Library for Medicine, microneedling effectively reduces stretch marks on the abdominal area and thighs when done with fillers. The study about microneedling potentially promoting hair growth and treating hair loss also says that the procedure can be done on the skin of your head.

Microneedling can do so much with your body. Whichever part has skin that needs enhancement, it’s possible to treat them with the cosmetic procedure! Ensure your safety by consulting with an expert first.

Which is better, a chemical peel or microneedling?

Both microneedling and chemical peels can improve the overall appearance of your skin. However, microneedling is often considered the better option because it is less invasive and has a shorter recovery time.

How long does microneedling last?

Microneedling results are not permanent. However, they can last for several months to a year. To maintain your results, you may need to get microneedling treatments every few months or so.

I absolutely love this place!!! The environment is warm, welcoming and very friendly.. Image Perfect Laser is a Medical Spa that came highly recommended to me and I am highly recommending it to you. I had multiple IPL's (Intense pulsed light therapy) done on my face, chest and back. It truly helped improve the color and texture of my skin. I also did 6 treatments of Evoke under my chin to tighten the skin. I am very pleased with the results!! I will consider other treatment types that they offer given my great experience so far!! Thank you for everything Teresa,
