Microneedling Q&A

What is microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally-invasive aesthetic procedure that can help encourage cellular turnover and revitalize your skin using thin needles. Your provider creates micro-wounds in your skin, which helps your skin send healing proteins like collagen and elastin to boost your skin health. 

 

Over time, your skin accumulates damage on the surface and in the deeper layers. Other factors like too much sun exposure and health conditions can also affect the health and appearance of your skin. Microneedling can address several cosmetic concerns at once, healing the skin and promoting a healthier, firmer surface.  

 

The team at Refine Skin Medspa may combine microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) to speed up the healing process and enhance your outcomes.  

What can microneedling treat?


Microneedling is an excellent choice if you want to treat several skin concerns without other more invasive procedures. As your skin heals following your microneedling session, you’ll notice fewer skin concerns as time goes by. 

 

Some of the conditions that microneedling treats include:

 

  • Acne scars
  • Age spots
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Stretch marks
  • Wrinkles and fine lines
  • Large pores

 

Refine Skin Medspa may recommend a series of microneedling treatments to help you achieve the best results. They can also advise you on skin care products and provide tips for how to maintain your skin at home. 

What are other treatment alternatives to microneedling?

 

The team offers several aesthetic treatments to help you meet your goals. If you’re not finding the results you need with microneedling for acne scars, they may recommend laser treatments like AviClear™. 

 

AviClear is the first FDA-approved energy-based device for mild to severe acne. It targets acne at the source by suppressing oil gland production (which leads to breakouts). 

How should I care for my skin after microneedling?

 

It’s important to take care of your skin after microneedling in order to maintain long-lasting results. Following microneedling, you may have temporary redness, but this is normal and will gradually fade.  

 

As your skin heals, you should:

 

  • Use sunscreen
  • Only touch your face with clean hands
  • Use a mild, gentle cleanser
  • Getting good nutrition

 

You should always continue to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen to avoid additional sun damage.
