Microneedling patients can typically see results within three months.
Microneedling is a safe cosmetic procedure that utilizes tiny, sterilized needles on the tip of a pen-like instrument. The method induces a controlled injury into the skin’s dermal and epidermal junction. The procedure stimulates the natural production of collagen as your own body heals itself without any synthetic or unnatural treatments. The result is healthier, more youthful looking skin. Additionally, it’s more affordable than many other cosmetic procedures for fine lines, wrinkles and scarring. The process causes much less damage to the epidermis than dermal rolling, lasers, or other ablative treatments.
Although it varies for each patient, three microneedling sessions scheduled every four weeks is the recommendation for patients to see results. Patients with deep wrinkles, advanced sun damage, stretch marks, or any type of scars may require six or more treatments to achieve the desired results.
The Collagen P.I.N. (Percutaneous Induction Needling) is the microneedling device used at Dr. Novikov Wellness and Skin Care. Moreover, the FDA has approved the treatment to enhance the appearance of facial acne scars in adults aged 22 years and older with specific skin types.
Below are some images that capture the skin before and after treatment.
