A minimally invasive technique using tiny needles to prompt collagen and elastin production, enhancing skin texture and firmness.
What is it?
Microneedling—also known as collagen induction therapy—is performed using a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin. This stimulates the skin's natural healing process and boosts collagen and elastin production, promoting skin health.
The advantages of microneedling include:
What to expect
We recommend a series of four treatments spaced about four to six weeks apart for optimal results. Initial results can be seen several days post-treatment as skin cells start to self-repair. Final results won’t be seen until 2-4 weeks with the emergence of fresh, healthy skin. Protect your investment and enhance your results with a tailored skincare regimen recommended by our team.

Nearly anyone could potentially be a good candidate for microneedling. It’s minimally-invasive and is safe and effective for all skin types. Microneedling is great for both anti-aging treatments and preventative care. If you’re ready to boost your skin’s long-term health, microneedling treatments might be right for you.
Microneedling treatments are fairly quick and can often be done during your lunch break. Depending on the area being treated, the actual procedure can take as little as 30-minutes. You’ll need to prepare to arrive slightly early for the application of a topical anesthetic that will keep you comfortable throughout treatment.
There is no downtime necessary with microneedling. Pending you avoid extreme sun exposure, you can return to work or home immediately. You may experience minor redness or irritation several days following your in-office procedure.
