Microneedling

Microneedling is a versatile, minimally invasive treatment that harnesses the body's natural healing abilities to stimulate collagen and elastin production. This process helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and other skin imperfections, resulting in smoother, more youthful skin.

Collagen Stimulation • Acne Scars • Skin Texture

Microneedling is a collagen-stimulating treatment that uses a specialized device to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing and remodeling response.

As the skin repairs itself, it produces new collagen and elastin, helping improve the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, uneven texture, and overall skin quality.

Your microneedling treatment can be customized with different treatment options based on your skin’s needs and your goals. Depending on your treatment plan, an appropriate hyaluronic acid (HA) serum may be used for hydration and skin conditioning, or you may choose a regenerative enhancement such as PRP or PDRN to further support your skin-rejuvenation goals.

At Obsidian Medspa & Wellness, microneedling is approached as a collagen-focused treatment rather than simply a cosmetic facial. Your skin is assessed before treatment so the depth, products, and treatment approach can be appropriately customized.

What to Expect

Treatment typically takes approximately 45–60 minutes, depending on the treatment area and selected enhancement. The skin may appear red and feel warm or sensitive immediately afterward, similar to a mild sunburn. Most visible redness improves over the following 24–48 hours, although individual healing times vary.

A series of treatments is often recommended for progressive improvement, particularly when treating acne scars, texture, or collagen loss.

Downtime

Minimal to moderate, depending on treatment intensity. Temporary redness, warmth, tightness, dryness, or mild swelling may occur.

FAQS

Typically, a series of multiple treatments spaced a few weeks apart is recommended for optimal results.

  • Microneedling involves minimal downtime. Post-treatment redness and swelling typically subside within a few days. You can resume your normal activities immediately, but it’s crucial to avoid sun exposure until your skin has fully healed.

  • Microneedling is a safe and minimally invasive procedure with a well-established safety profile. Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and mild discomfort in the treated area. These effects are typically mild and resolve on their own.
