Microneedling Reading, PA

What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that stimulates the production of collagen and elastin by repeatedly puncturing the skin with tiny, sterile needles. The physical wounds created in the process prompt the body to activate its healing process by generating new collagen-rich tissue for smoother, firmer, and more even-toned skin.

What Are the Benefits of Microneedling?

Microneedling has the following benefits:

• Makes acne, hyperpigmentation, and signs of sun damage less visible
• Encourages new hair growth which is useful for alopecia (hair loss)
• Reduces the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of premature aging
• Makes pores look smaller
• Increases skin elasticity
• Hides stretch marks

Microneedling and its benefits need not be confined to facial areas either. It can also be used to generate new skin in larger areas of the body like your thighs and stomach.

What Happens When You Get Microneedling?

Yes, the idea of pricking your face with needles is an unpleasant one. However, let us reassure you that the discomfort will be minimal. Before starting the procedure, your microneedling professional will apply a numbing cream on the area to reduce the amount of sensation. They will then go over your skin with a microneedling pen to create tiny puncture holes that will activate the healing process.

Since your skin’s topmost layer will be compromised to a certain extent, you can expect some bleeding, however, it will be minimal. After the procedure, a cream to calm the skin will be applied.

The procedure typically takes ten to 20 minutes to complete depending on the size of the area. It’s also a good idea to have the area treated around four to six times for the best results.

How Long Before You See Results?

You can notice immediate results like skin tightening a week from the procedure. For more dramatic benefits, you may have to wait four to six weeks. The waiting time may seem long, but the results are definitely worth the wait.
