Microneedling typically involves minimal discomfort, as numbing cream is applied beforehand to alleviate any potential sensation. Most clients describe the feeling as a slight tingling or pricking sensation during the procedure.

The number of sessions needed varies depending on individual skin concerns and goals. However, a series of 3 to 6 sessions spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart is often recommended for noticeable improvements in skin texture, tone, and overall appearance.

While some redness and mild swelling may occur immediately after the procedure, it typically subsides within a few hours to a day. Most individuals can resume their normal activities shortly after treatment, although it’s advisable to avoid direct sun exposure and rigorous activities for a few days.

Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and mild skin irritation, which usually resolve within a few days. In rare cases, more severe side effects such as infection or scarring may occur, but these are extremely uncommon when the procedure is performed by a trained professional using sterile equipment.

Microneedling is effective in addressing a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, uneven skin texture, enlarged pores, and hyperpigmentation. It stimulates collagen production and promotes skin renewal, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin over time.
