Microneedling is a treatment that uses very thin needles to puncture your skin—this micro-injury and healing has been shown to stimulate collagen production. This minimally invasive procedure harnesses your body’s ability to naturally restore itself, giving you healthier, glowing skin with fewer wrinkles.
At Metro Laser, our experienced medical estheticians are here to discuss your concerns and evaluate your skin. Our knowledgeable team of estheticians has a firm understanding of what each treatment can do for you—This process will allow you to obtain a personalized treatment plan that is best for you. Microneedling in Plymouth Meeting is one of many treatment options we offer at our Med Spa to help you look and feel your best.
Microneedling offers a wide range of benefits. Microneedling can help address scars due to acne, surgery, or an injury, melasma, dark spots, stretch marks, and other areas of uneven skin tone or texture in your skin helping your irregularities to fade and have a more natural appearance.
As an anti-aging treatment, microneedling stimulates collagen production at a deeper level to help even out fine lines and wrinkles. Because of its ability to stimulate collagen production, microneedling is also known as collagen induction therapy.
Microneedling can be used almost anywhere on your body. You may be most interested in how it can enhance the complexion on your face, neck, and decolletage, but our Plymouth Meeting estheticians can also perform microneedling on your hands, arms, legs, abdomen, or back.
Microneedling treatments usually last about 15 to 30 minutes, depending on how much skin area is being treated. These relatively short appointments can be scheduled at times most convenient to you, including over your lunch break.
We apply a topical anesthetic to the areas we are going to treat to ensure your comfort during the treatment. Afterward, you are free to return to your usual activities. There is virtually no downtime.
Most clients will have some redness after your treatment session. This side effect can last for up to four days, though most people find that this fades after the first day. The healthy glow to your skin is just the beginning. As your skin heals and repairs leading to collagen production, you will see continued improvement.
Depending on what is being treated and your aesthetic goals, you may need multiple treatment sessions to get the most out of microneedling. You may also decide to have continuing appointments to keep your skin looking its very best. Our Plymouth Meeting staff will work with you to create a microneedling treatment plan that suits your skin, schedule, and budget.
