How Microneedling Works

Microneedling uses ultra-fine, sterile needles to create thousands of controlled microchannels in the skin. These micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing response:

• Collagen and elastin production increases

• Cell turnover improves

• Skin becomes smoother, firmer, and more even

Because the outer layer of the skin remains intact, healing is rapid while still achieving meaningful rejuvenation from within.

Microneedling is safe for all skin tones and effectively improves:

• Acne scars and surgical scars

• Fine lines and early wrinkles

• Uneven texture or enlarged pores

• Dull or uneven tone

• Mild laxity and crepey skin

• Sun-damage–related roughness or pigment irregularities

For amplified results, Dr. Moss may incorporate PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or targeted medical-grade serums to enhance collagen regeneration and accelerate healing.

What to Expect During Your Treatment

A typical microneedling session lasts 30–45 minutes.

1. Preparation
   Your skin is cleansed thoroughly, and a topical numbing cream is applied for comfort.

2. During Treatment
   Most patients describe the sensation as a mild vibration or light prickling as the SkinStylus MRPen glides across the skin.

3. Immediately After
   Mild redness, warmth, or tightness—similar to a light sunburn—is expected for 24–48 hours.
   Makeup can usually be worn the next day, depending on your treatment intensity.

4. Your Results
   As new collagen forms over the following weeks, skin becomes smoother, brighter, and more refined.
   Improvements continue for up to 3–6 months as remodeling progresses.

For optimal results, Dr. Moss typically recommends a series of 4 treatments, spaced about a month apart, followed by periodic maintenance to preserve your glow.
