FAQ - Micro needling

What is Micro-needling?
Microneedling is a non-surgical, transformative treatment that uses tiny needles to trigger collagen and elastin production deep within the skin. This stimulates the skin’s natural healing and rebuilding properties. Microneedling restores and rebuilds skin for a fresh complexion.

What skin conditions and areas does it treat?
Microneedling truly does it all. It can be done anywhere on the body. Even the eyelids! This gentle, non-invasive treatment can treat fine lines, scarring, uneven skin tone and texture, pigmentation and more.

​

How does it work?
Microneedling uses tiny needles to create micro-wounds that trigger collagen and elastin production deep within the skin. This stimulates the skin’s natural healing and rebuilding properties to uncover a new fresh skin.

​

What is a microneedling procedure like?
During treatment, tiny micro-punctures activate your body’s natural healing and rebuilding process to reconstruct skin. Well clean and prepare your skin, prioritizing your comfort and talking you through the procedure. You may feel some discomfort, but the needles are so tiny that most clients compare their sensation to a vibrating cats tongue. Your technician will work with you to maximize your comfort level. Prior to the procedure, I will apply a numbing cream to the treatment area to increase comfort during your treatment.

​

How many sessions do I need?

With the E-Dermastamp machine, most clients see results right away. However, if you are trying to target specific skin concerns (ie; pigmentation) we recommend 3-4 sessions spaced 5 weeks apart. Except about 20% improvement with each session.

During the Treatment
Double skin cleanse & enhanced comfort, we apply numbing prior to your micro-needling treatment. After we have micro needled the desired area we apply a Hyaluronic Acid mask to double the absorption of hydration.

​

Post Treatment
After your treatment, you’ll experience mild redness which will subside within several hours. I recommend not to wash your face for 8 hours after your treatment. Apply included hyaluronic acid in these hours. You should avoid skin irritants and heat exposure – including saunas, hot baths and hot yoga – for 1-2 days following your treatment. Wash and moisturize your face with the provided products the following morning after your procedure.
