Microneedling is a skin rejuvenation treatment that uses a device with tiny, sterile needles to poke the skin. By creating thousands of small holes, or micro-channels, your body is triggered into a natural healing process. Microneedling is great to resurface the skin and reduce the visible signs of aging.

Cosmetic Microneedling uses shorter needles and may not be effective against deeper rooted skin concerns like acne scars. Medical Microneedling uses longer needles and stimulates collagen production deeper within the skin producing better results. Medical-grade Microneedling must be performed by a licensed professional.

Medical Microneedling is minimally invasive and does not require downtime. However, you may experience redness and skin sensitivity for a few days after your treatment.

It is a temporary procedure so we recommend a maintenance program of quarterly sessions to keep skin looking its best. Most patients notice visible results in 1-3 days after their first treatment.

Many clients notice improvements in their skin after just a few sessions, with continued enhancement over time. Clients in Chanhassen, MN and the surrounding suburbs have experienced clearer skin within weeks.

The number of microneedling sessions needed varies based on individual skin concerns and goals. Most clients benefit from a series of 3-6 treatments spaced a few weeks apart.

Microneedling can significantly improve the appearance of scars, including acne scars, by stimulating collagen production and promoting skin healing. It’s a great option for anyone looking to smooth and even out their skin’s texture.

Common side effects of microneedling include redness, swelling, and mild irritation, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects are usually temporary and subside within a few days.
