What is microneedling?

Microneedling is a cosmetic treatment that uses tiny needles to make micropunctures in treated skin and stimulate new cell growth. The treatment is highly effective for antiaging, making your skin look many years younger without invasive treatments or downtime. Microneedling can also stimulate hair growth to produce a fuller, thicker head of hair. 

SkinblvdLA offers SkinPen® technology, a small handheld device used for microneedling during treatment to achieve optimal precision and accuracy. 

The practice also applies platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to treated tissues to further stimulate cell growth. PRP comes from your own blood after being spun in a centrifuge. 

What are the advantages of microneedling?

The advantages of microneedling include:

  • Smoother, tighter skin
  • Younger-looking appearance
  • Tissue revitalization
  • Smaller pores
  • Even-toned skin
  • Reduced scarring and other blemishes
  • Fewer lines and wrinkles
  • Thicker hair
  • Self-confidence

Microneedling is an all-natural solution for treating aging, dull, or damaged skin. There’s no pain, invasive treatments, or downtime needed afterward. 

Am I a candidate for microneedling?

To determine if you’re a candidate for microneedling at SkinblvdLA, a specialist discusses your medical history, examines your skin, and asks about your beauty goals and treatment preferences. They tailor each procedure to your individualized needs to ensure superior results. You may be a match for more than one type of aesthetic treatment at SkinblvdLA.

What happens during microneedling?

During microneedling treatment, your provider cleans the treatment area and numbs it. They insert microneedles into the treatment area using a small handheld device or SkinPen technology. 

If you receive PRP with microneedling, your specialist takes a sample of blood from one of your veins, extracts the PRP using a centrifuge, and applies it to your skin or scalp along with needling.

What should I expect after the procedure?

After you undergo microneedling, you can expect temporary side effects like redness, tenderness, and swelling. You may also develop some scabbing during the healing process. Protect treated skin from the sun and keep it clean. Your SkinblvdLA provider lets you know when to schedule your next microneedling treatment to achieve optimal results.
