Microneedling Q & A

How does microneedling work?

Microneedling involves a specialized device equipped with many tiny needles. During your microneedling treatment, your Shantique Med Spa expert rolls this device across your skin to create a series of minuscule puncture wounds.

Your immune system responds to these micro-injuries by producing new collagen and elastin and increasing the rate of cellular regeneration. Collagen and elastin give your skin strength and firmness, while cellular renewal builds healthier new skin to replace the older tissue.

Your specialist at Shantique Med Spa can also use microneedling to deliver nourishing serums to the deeper layers of your skin for beautiful anti-aging and revitalizing results.

Which conditions can microneedling address?

Your Shantique Med Spa specialist has the training and experience to perform microneedling safely to address the following skin concerns:

  • Wrinkles and fine lines
  • Loose, sagging skin
  • Clogged pores
  • Dull skin
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Dark spots
  • Sun damage
  • Acne scarring

Microneedling also provides maximum hydration and can help balance skin tone and texture.

What happens during a microneedling treatment?

 

Before beginning the microneedling procedure, your experienced provider at Shantique Med Spa cleanses your skin and applies a topical anesthetic gel. Next, your expert carefully rolls the microneedling device over the surface of your skin several times. The final step is to apply a selection of serums customized to meet your individual skin needs and goals.

You may feel a little pressure, but microneedling usually isn’t uncomfortable. You can expect your skin to bleed a little, but this should subside quickly, often before your treatment is complete. 

When your microneedling session is finished, your expert gives you detailed instructions for at-home care. You’ll likely have some discomfort over the next 24 hours, so your expert also provides options for pain relief. It can take up to one week following treatment for your skin to heal fully.

When will I see my results?

Results are typically visible a few weeks after your microneedling procedure. Some patients reach their goals after just one treatment, but in most cases, a series of treatments is needed to achieve optimal results.

Microneedling offers firmer, tighter, younger-looking skin. If you’re interested in microneedling, schedule a consultation with an expert at Shantique Med Spa. Call the office or make an appointment online today.
