Microneedling revitalizes facial skin by creating tiny punctures that trigger the body's natural collagen and elastin production, improving texture, firmness, and reducing fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
The micro-injuries induced by microneedling signal fibroblasts (skin cells) to initiate repair, leading them to synthesize new collagen fibers, providing skin structure & texture, filling imperfections. The same healing cascade prompts fibroblasts to produce elastin, a protein essential for skin's flexibility and ability to snap back, reducing laxity and improving overall firmness.
This process also diminishes discoloration and sun damage, shrinks pores, and promotes a brighter, smoother, and more radiant complexion by encouraging new, healthier skin cell growth. In the days following a microneedling treatment, here's what you can expect:
Days 1-2 (Inflammation Phase): Skin looks red, feels warm, tight, and sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn, with possible swelling.
Days 3-5 (Peeling/Renewal Phase): Redness fades, but skin becomes dry and starts to flake or peel as old cells shed to reveal new skin.
Day 7 & Beyond (Healing & Results): Skin appears more balanced, smoother, and hydrated. Full collagen remodeling takes weeks, with optimal results appearing after 4-6 weeks.
If you're looking for a way to maintain the suppleness and glow of your skin, or if you'd like to get back to it, microneedling is a great strategy for achieving healthier, more resilient skin!
