A Natural Way to Dramatically Improve Your Skin

Microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) is an innovation in aesthetic medicine that can help treat the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and stretch marks. The Bellus Medical SkinPen® uses a sterile cartridge tip containing tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries to the skin. This initiates the skin's repair process to naturally produce collagen and elastin, ideal for all skin types.

Applying platelet-rich Plasma (PRP), growth factors, kojic acid, and hyaluronic acid can enhance results. We invite you to schedule your free consultation today if you want a non-surgical and advanced way to smooth your skin. We’ll provide a custom treatment plan that meets your desired goals and aesthetic needs.

Procedure Technique

Before the procedure, the treated area will be cleansed, and a thin layer of topical gel will be applied to numb the skin. When you come in for your microneedling, Newport Beach facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Sadati, or our aesthetician will use a sterile cartridge tip with 12 microneedles on a handheld device. The device will be pressed gently across the skin, gliding in one direction until the entire area has been treated.

The procedure results in tiny holes on the skin known as microchannels, which close almost immediately and trigger a healing response. This results in renewed skin, including a thickened dermis, softening the appearance of lines, wrinkles, and scars. The procedure takes around 15-30 minutes.

During / After Treatment

After your treatment, the treated area will appear bright red, similar to a sunburn. The intensity and duration of the redness depend upon the number of passes performed on the treatment area and the particular area treated. Typically, the redness lasts 1-7 days. 

Over the course of a few weeks, you can expect to see a marked improvement in your skin's color, tone, and texture. In addition, lines and wrinkles should be drastically reduced. While some patients benefit from a single treatment, 2-3 treatments are advised to get the best possible results.

Microneedling Frequently Asked Questions

What areas can be treated?

Microneedling can be used on all body parts — face, neck, arms, hands, legs, abdomen, and back.

What does it feel like?

Microneedling feels similar to sandpaper being gently moved across the skin. Topical numbing may be applied before your procedure, but no anesthesia or medications are necessary.

What is hyaluronic acid?

This is a naturally occurring substance that helps bind water to cells. Its cross-linking abilities help provide lifting capacity, restoring volume in the cheeks and mid-face. Since hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in the skin, allergy testing before treating this dermal filler is unnecessary.
