What is Microneedling?

Collagen Induction Therapy with Microneedling

Microneedling uses a device containing solid, sterile needles which has been used successfully to improve the appearance of scars, signs of aging, stretch marks, and hyperpigmentation. It was FDA-approved in April 2005. Using this device to microneedle is called collagen induction therapy or CIT. It involves the creation of thousands of microscopic punctures to increase natural collagen production. Like many lasers and energy devices, the Microneedling device appears to have an effect on fibroblasts (the cells that create collagen) without actually harming them. As a result, you will watch your skin gradually become smoother, firmer, and more even.

What are the benefits of Microneedling?

Comprehensive, Natural Skin Repair

With Microneedling Austin patients get comprehensive dermal repair to correct a broad range of cosmetic skin concerns, including:

Acne
Rosacea
Skin laxity
Sun damage
Stretch marks
Enlarged pores
Uneven skin tone
Fine lines and wrinkles
Scars (including those caused by acne)

In addition, Microneedling allows topical skincare products to penetrate deeper, enhancing their effectiveness. It also offers a lower risk of side effects in relation to other treatments, such as laser resurfacing or chemical peels.

Am I a candidate for Microneedling?

Make smooth, beautiful skin your reality.

People of all ages and skin types can benefit from Microneedling. It is best for those who are looking to achieve more youthful, healthy-looking skin through a non-surgical rejuvenation technique that does not require significant downtime. If you have a scar, stretch mark, or other minor skin imperfection, microneedling may help improve your appearance. Some patients with mild hyperpigmentation and melasma may also benefit from treatment.

Your Microneedling Procedure

What does it entail?

Before your Austin Microneedling treatment, your provider will apply a topical numbing solution to ensure your optimal comfort. During your procedure, we will use a pen-like device called a SkinPen to deliver microscopic needles to produce thousands of tiny punctures into your skin. Your provider will move the device throughout the target area, applying your treatment evenly. Once your microneedling treatment is complete, your provider will apply a serum or calming solution to your skin. You will be able to leave our office immediately after your procedure.

Microneedling Recovery

Watch Your Concerns Fade Away

According to most patients, microneedling recovery is relatively quick. Depending on your skin type and the details of your treatment, you may experience some redness or irritation for a few days after treatment. If you have sensitive skin, your skin might remain sensitive for a week or so afterward. As with any non-surgical rejuvenation procedure, it's important to be realistic about what Microneedling can do for you; though its effects are subtle and gradual, people who try it are almost always happy with their results!

Microneedling Results

Beautifully Healthy, Rejuvenated Skin

Long-term micro-channeling has been shown to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin and improve cell membrane function. This treatment increases blood flow while helping skin heal naturally by triggering your body’s own healing processes. You will notice improvements in the quality of skin soon after treatment, although your results will continue to develop for as long as six months. Although it is not intended to completely replace traditional surgery, microneedling can reduce scarring from cuts or surgical removal. At Westlake Plastic Surgery, we specialize in cosmetic procedures that are all about enhancing your natural beauty. If you’re looking for a way to reduce fine lines and wrinkles without surgery or downtime, Microneedling might be right for you!
