Also collagen-induction therapy, microneedling is a nonsurgical treatment that penetrates your skin’s surface with fine needles to improve its appearance. This popular procedure can help smooth lines and wrinkles, even skin tone (including stubborn melasma), minimize large pores, firm skin, and fade stretch marks and scars, including acne scars.
Though it’s mostly used on the face, neck, chest, and hands, microneedling can be done all over the body.
To get the full benefits, we recommend a series of at least 3 treatments.
Depending on the area treated, microneedling sessions can range from 15 to 45 minutes.
Recovery time is usually just a few days, depending on your treatment intensity.
