What Microneedling Does

The microneedling device creates precise micro-channels on the skin’s surface. These minor injuries trigger the body’s natural repair process, stimulating the production of new collagen and elastin. Over time, the skin becomes firmer, pores appear smaller, and overall tone and texture improve.

Microneedling is effective for:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Acne scars and other textural irregularities
  • Uneven skin tone and pigmentation
  • Enlarged pores
  • General loss of elasticity and radiance

Because it works by activating your body’s own renewal mechanisms, results develop gradually and look beautifully natural. Most patients experience improvement after 1 session, with optimal results typically achieved following a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart.

Enhancing Results With Growth Factors

For even more dramatic rejuvenation, microneedling can be paired with growth factor serums or platelet-rich plasma (PRP). These biologically active solutions contain natural proteins that boost the healing response and encourage deeper collagen formation. When applied during microneedling, they penetrate the skin more effectively through the micro-channels, enhancing hydration, firmness, and radiance.

Many patients notice faster recovery and more glowing results when growth factors are added to their treatment plan. This powerful combination helps restore both the structure and vitality of the skin, making it one of our most popular med spa treatments for visible, long-term improvement.

Beyond growth factors, microneedling can often be paired with additional skin-rejuvenating treatments, including salmon DNA formulations that support repair and barrier function, as well as chemical peels, BBL® HERO®, or injectables like dermal fillers and BOTOX® Cosmetic. These combinations allow us to address multiple layers of the skin for smoother texture, improved tone, and a more balanced appearance.

Beyond growth factors, microneedling can often be paired with other rejuvenating options such as chemical peels, BBL® HERO®, or injectables like dermal fillers and BOTOX® Cosmetic. These combinations allow us to target multiple layers of the skin for smoother texture, improved tone, and a refreshed overall appearance.
