If you are experiencing unwanted signs of aging including wrinkles, fine lines, and loose skin, microneedling may be the solution you’ve been looking for. Microneedling is a cosmetic treatment that uses a small instrument with dozens of tiny needles that make very small wounds on the face. This may sound intimidating at first, but we assure you that the treatment is completely safe and minimally painful.

• Before the treatment: Before your first microneedling treatment, you can book a consultation appointment to discuss what to expect during the treatment and assess if it will make a positive difference to your facial appearance. Everyone has unique and personal cosmetic needs and this consultation will help you figure out how to get amazing results. Your doctor will also ask about any skin conditions or injuries that may prevent microneedling to work.
• During the treatment: After you arrive at your appointment, a nurse or doctor will cleanse your face with a soothing cleanser, remove any makeup, and then apply topical anesthesia. Your doctor will then start the microneedling process. If you feel any discomfort or pain, don’t hesitate to tell your doctor! There are many ways to help reduce pain during microneedling that your doctor will happily do for you. The treatment can take anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes and then you can resume normal life right away.
• After the treatment: Thankfully, there are no major side effects to microneedling so you should be completely healed within 24 to 48 hours. Within this time frame, refrain from wearing makeup and using aggressive cleansers, toners, and exfoliants. Any redness, pain, and swelling should dissipate quickly after your microneedling appointment.
