What is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a device with fine needles to create tiny, controlled punctures in the skin's surface. These micro-injuries stimulate the body's natural healing process, boosting collagen and elastin production, which helps improve skin texture, tone, and elasticity.

Microneedling is commonly used to address a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven skin texture. The procedure typically involves applying a topical numbing cream to the skin for comfort.

After treatment, the skin may appear slightly red and feel like a mild sunburn, but this usually resolves within a few hours to a day. Results are often seen after several sessions, with skin continuing to improve over time as collagen production increases. Microneedling is considered a safe, effective treatment with minimal downtime.

Microneedling: A Non-Surgical Skin Rejuvenation Treatment

Microneedling is a minimally invasive, non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment performed in the office, usually with a topical numbing cream for comfort. This procedure uses a device with fine needles to create tiny micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production for smoother, firmer skin. The treatment helps address concerns like fine lines, acne scars, and uneven texture.

Typically taking around 30 minutes, microneedling offers noticeable improvements in skin tone and texture over time, with results becoming more visible after several sessions. Unlike other treatments that provide immediate lifting, microneedling delivers gradual, long-lasting skin rejuvenation by encouraging the skin's natural healing process.

Microneedling Recovery

Some patients may experience mild redness, swelling, or a warm sensation in the treated areas, which typically subsides within 24–48 hours. Most individuals can resume their normal activities immediately after a microneedling treatment in Songdo, as it is a non-invasive procedure with minimal downtime.
