Microneedling

Microneedling stimulates collagen production to rejuvenate skin, reduce scars, and improve texture. Pinnacle Dermatology offers expert microneedling treatments for radiant, youthful skin.

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a device with fine needles to create tiny, controlled punctures in the skin's surface. This process stimulates the body's natural collagen and elastin production, promoting skin rejuvenation and improving texture and firmness. It's highly effective for addressing various skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and uneven skin tone.

For those seeking to enhance their skin's vitality and achieve a youthful, radiant appearance, schedule a microneedling session with the trusted professionals at Pinnacle Dermatology. Experience the transformative benefits of microneedling and take a confident step toward rejuvenated, glowing skin.

What to Expect at Your Microneedling Appointment

In your microneedling appointment, your dermatology provider will begin by cleansing the treatment area. We apply a numbing cream to minimize discomfort during the procedure. The microneedling device, equipped with fine needles, will then be gently moved across the skin, creating controlled micro-injuries.

Following the treatment, your dermatology provider may apply soothing serums or moisturizers to aid in the healing process. 

Microneedling Maintenance Recommendations

To maintain the benefits of microneedling and support ongoing skin health, following recommended post-treatment care is crucial. Your dermatology provider will offer guidance on effective maintenance practices, like the following:

  • Gentle Cleansing: Use a mild cleanser to cleanse the treated area without harsh scrubbing.

  • Sun Protection: Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen regularly to shield the skin from UV damage, especially in the days following microneedling.

  • Avoid Harsh Products: Refrain from using abrasive skincare products or treatments that may irritate the freshly treated skin.

  • Regular Moisturizing: Keep the skin hydrated by applying a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer regularly.

  • Communication: Stay in close communication with your dermatology provider, reporting any changes or concerns promptly to facilitate adjustments to the maintenance plan as needed.

Microneedling Maintenance Schedule

  • Typically, an initial series of 3-6 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, is recommended for optimal results.

  • After the initial series, maintenance sessions may be scheduled every 2-3 months to sustain the benefits.

  • Regular consultations with your dermatology provider help assess the ongoing condition of your skin and determine the need for additional sessions.

  • Microneedling may be complemented with other skincare treatments as part of a comprehensive plan to address specific concerns over time.
