What Are the Benefits of Microneedling?
The microneedling process involves creating pinprick-sized micro-punctures in the skin to boost collagen production. This collagen surge brings your skin to a “younger state” to reduce wrinkles and fine lines. It also softens and plumps the texture of your skin. Results from microneedling are enjoyed immediately. Many people find that their skin is plump and “glowy” for weeks following the treatment.
Why Get Microneedling?
Microneedling is a treatment that can benefit anyone seeking a “fresh face.” Many people also find that it is especially effective for fading acne scars and blemishes. It also helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The microchanneling process that we use for skin resurfacing here at Vesper Gray Med Spa is designed to reduce acne scarring and the appearance of stretch marks on the skin. This procedure also helps with reducing pore size, increasing skin elasticity and correcting uneven skin tone.
What to Expect When Undergoing Microneedling
Microneedling is considered a minimally invasive procedure. When you show up for your microneedling appointment, we’ll apply a numbing cream after you’re comfortably situated. While you will experience sensations on your skin as the microneedling tool passes over, the process is not typically described as painful. Some areas of your face may be more sensitive than others. It is not uncommon to experience minor irritation or redress following a microneedling session. However, this very normal reaction subsides within a few days. While there is technically no downtime required following microneedling, you will be instructed to allow your skin to rest after your treatment. This typically means not washing the skin, staying away from heat and avoiding sweating.
