Microneedling Benefits

Are you searching for an effective skincare treatment for your specific skin concern? A healthy skincare routine may not provide your desired outcome, and surgery requires a lot of commitment. We can strike a balance with microneedling treatments. 

At Premiere Aesthetics in Fort Myers, FL, we offer microneedling services. Microneedling is a minimally invasive, non-surgical treatment that targets various skin concerns, such as wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, and more. If you would like to know more about microneedling and how it can benefit your skin, give us a call, or visit us to schedule a consultation.

What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling uses tiny needles to stimulate the production of collagen in your body. The needles create tiny wounds on the surface of your skin, triggering your body’s natural healing process for a visible reduction in wrinkles, fine lines, and acne scars. It also tightens the skin of the area being treated. Microneedling can treat a range of skin concerns. Here are just a few problems you can address with microneedling:

Scarring.

Hyperpigmentation. 

Decreased collagen production. 

Loose pores.

Microneedling Benefits

Microneedling can work wonders on your skin. Here are just a few advantages of this treatment:

Makes Skin Healthier

Microneedling does not only reduce the appearance of skin concerns but stimulates the production of collagen. This is essential to maintaining healthy and firm skin.

No Downtime

After your microneedling treatment session, you can continue with your daily activities because it does not require any downtime.

Quick and Easy

Microneedling sessions can be done during your lunch break, and you can get back to work right after your treatment.

Non-surgical

Because microneedling is non-surgical and minimally invasive, it is much more affordable and won’t require a lengthy healing period.

Results Are Natural-Looking

The results that you achieve with Microneedling appear naturally and discreetly.

Microneedling Before and After

To gain the best microneedling results, there are a few things to do before and after your sessions. However, we will be with you every step of the way to make sure you have a comfortable and successful experience.

Initial Consultation

Before you can begin your microneedling treatment, you will need to schedule a consultation with us. This consultation allows us to discuss your skin concerns and desired goals. We will also review your medical history and current health status. It is important to share with us any medication you are currently using, pre-existing skin conditions, and other skin care treatments you desire to have in the future. Treatments such as laser hair removal or waxing may irritate skin that has been treated with microneedling. This may prolong the healing process and reduce the appearance of your results. If you have any questions about the treatment, we will answer them during the initial consultation.

Preparation For Microneedling

Because microneedling causes minor trauma to the target area, you should take extra care of your skin about a week before the treatment. The use of exfoliation or other harsh products should be avoided due to skin irritation. You should also avoid trying any new makeup or skincare product during this time. Keep your body and skin well hydrated by drinking plenty of water.

The Microneedling Treatment

We recommend you don’t wear makeup on the day of your microneedling treatment session. Your skin needs to be bare and clean to achieve optimal results. We may apply a topical anesthetic or numbing cream to the target area. The process is relatively pain-free and comfortable. The duration of your treatment will depend on the area being treated, but it won’t be long.

During your microneedling treatment, your skin will be slightly red. Not only is this normal, but it is an indication that the needles are at the correct depth. A soothing serum will be applied to your skin after the treatment to ease any discomfort you may experience.

Recovery After Microneedling

One of the benefits of using microneedling to address your skin concerns is that it does not require downtime after the treatment. If you had a numbing cream applied, you should expect the sensation to return to your skin within two hours.

After your treatment session, you will be able to return to your normal daily activities, such as driving, going to work, and doing light exercise. Although your skin may feel slightly sensitive and appear red, you won’t feel pain during or after the treatment.

Your skin will be fully healed after three days. You should avoid harsh skin care products, makeup, and extended sun exposure. As soon as the redness subsides, you will be able to resume your regular skincare routine. We recommend you drink a lot of water during this time to keep your skin moisturized. If you take care of your skin after microneedling treatments, you will enhance the intensity and duration of your results.

Microneedling Results

The results that you obtain with microneedling treatments appear immediately. You will see a visible improvement in the texture of your skin. However, the appearance of acne scars will only fade after 3-4 treatment sessions. These treatment sessions are spaced four weeks apart to ensure your skin heals properly.
