What Is Microneedling?

Dysport is a cosmetic treatment that uses a special device equipped with tiny adjustable needles. These needles penetrate the skin in the area where you’re looking to improve the texture and/or reduce imperfections such as wrinkles, acne scars, and stretch marks. The depth reached by the needles can be adjusted to anywhere from 0.5 mm to 3.5 mm depending on your specific aesthetic goals and the area being treated.

When the needles penetrate the dermis, they create “micro-injuries,” which trigger a natural healing process called dermal remodeling. This leads to the development of new, healthy skin cells that gradually replace the damaged outer layer of skin. The dermal remodeling process also stimulates increased production of collagen, an important protein for the structure and health of the skin.

What Can Be Treated With Microneedling?

Microneedling is a versatile treatment that can be used to address a wide variety of skin issues in several different areas, including the face, abdomen, thighs, buttocks, and décolletage.

The procedure can be used to treat all of the following imperfections:

Fine lines and wrinkles
Enlarged pores
Stretch marks
Loose skin
Uneven skin tone
Acne scars

What to Expect During Your Microneedling Treatment

Depending on the area you’re having treated, your microneedling procedure at MD Beauty Lab can take anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour. Before the treatment, you’ll sit down for a consultation with one of our expert estheticians. During this meeting, you’ll go over your medical history, aesthetic goals, and any questions you may have about the procedure.

No anesthesia is needed for microneedling treatment, but a topical numbing cream will likely be applied to your skin to prevent any discomfort. Once your provider has treated your targeted skin with the microneedling device, you’ll be able to safely drive home or back to work.

Will You Require Any Downtime After Microneedling Treatment?

No, you typically won’t need any downtime after undergoing microneedling treatment. You should be able to resume your routine immediately after the procedure. However, if your facial skin has been treated, you’ll want to wait at least 24 hours before applying makeup. You may also experience some mild swelling, redness, and soreness in the treated area, but these symptoms should only last a day or two.

To ensure that your skin heals properly, you should avoid the following for at least 24 hours after your treatment:

Strenuous exercise or physical activity
Swimming pools
Saunas
Anything that may cause heavy sweating

Am I a Candidate for Microneedling?

Microneedling can be an effective treatment for just about anyone dealing with cosmetic skin issues, such as hyperpigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, stretch marks, or scarring. While the treatment is generally a safe option for most adults, it is not recommended for women who are currently pregnant or nursing. You should also not undergo microneedling if you’re experiencing an active acne breakout or skin infection near the targeted area.

You can expect the results of your microneedling treatment to last for anywhere from a few months to a year, depending on several factors, including your genetics and skincare routine.
