Microneedling Treatments

Microneedling treatments can rejuvenate your skin and repair cosmetic damage and signs of aging. Microneedling triggers your body to create new collagen and elastin, which can improve skin structure and help restore a more radiant complexion. Microneedling is a non-invasive procedure that can be performed in-office and doesn’t require anesthesia. Our skin care experts at Astra Plastic Surgery offer microneedling treatments to help patients in Atlanta enhance their appearance with minimal downtime and recovery.

What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment used to rejuvenate your skin. During microneedling, fine needles are utilized to create tiny punctures in the top layer of the skin, which triggers your body to naturally create new collagen and elastin. The results can include improved skin texture and firmness, as well as a reduction in scars, pore size, and stretch marks. By stimulating your skin’s natural healing processes, you can minimize wrinkles and improve the appearance of scars with minimal recovery time. Microneedling is a simple, effective method for enhancing your complexion. Because of its minimally invasive nature, microneedling does not require patients to go under anesthesia or take extended downtime.

What Are The Benefits Of Microneedling?

Microneedling can target areas where your skin is structurally weak; this includes areas where there are contour deformities, divots, and wide depressed scars. The benefits of microneedling include the effective treatment of mild-to-moderate acne scarring, the treatment of any new or old scars, fine lines, wrinkles, lax skin, enlarged pores, stretch marks, or other aesthetic concerns. Microneedling stimulates circulation and collagen production. It can be used on all areas of your scalp, face, and body, including fragile skin such as around your eyes, mouth, and neck. In addition, the improved dermal thickness caused by microneedling may reduce the appearance of small capillary vessels in your skin.

Am I An Ideal Candidate For Microneedling?

Patients who want to address scars, fine lines, wrinkles, or other cosmetic imperfections may be candidates for microneedling. Microneedling is minimally invasive, does not involve significant wounding of the skin, and is not light-based – meaning virtually anybody can safely undergo microneedling therapy with a minimal risk of long-term adverse effects.

This skin care technique can be used on all skin types. Even those areas of the body where skin is typically thin can undergo treatment with certain microneedling devices, where depth of penetration is consistent and easily regulated. Our team of skin care professionals can help you determine if you are an ideal candidate for microneedling treatment during your consultation.

What Can I Expect During Microneedling?

First, the treatment area is cleansed and prepped with a lidocaine gel to create sufficient numbness so you experience no discomfort whatsoever. During your microneedling procedure, a power handpiece is used to create tiny channels in the dermis of your skin, which initiates your body’s natural healing processes to create collagen and elastin.

This can result in notable improvements to your skin texture, including minimizing fine lines and wrinkles, as well as diminishing the existence of hyperpigmentation or discoloration of your skin. This same form of collagen induction with microneedling can reduce the prominence of acne scars. In addition, microneedling can be used to reduce stretch marks by creating collagen bridging.

What Can I Expect After Microneedling In Atlanta?

Following microneedling in Atlanta, it is important that patients take exceptional care of their skin. Since the procedure makes small puncture-like wounds in the skin, patients will need to take extra steps to ensure the treatment area remains clean. After the procedure, it is normal for the skin to appear irritated, flushed, or even bright red. However, these symptoms typically subside within 48 hours of the procedure. Some patients may experience pimples, acne, or dry, flaking skin after their microneedling treatment. Patients who take extra steps to maintain the health of their skin following the treatment often experience less of these side effects.

After your microneedling procedure, Dr. Killingsworth and his plastic surgery team will provide you with detailed instructions on how to take care of your skin while it heals to prevent any complications and ensure you achieve your desired results.

The results of microneedling are worth the wait. Over time, the skin will begin to appear brighter, fresher, and younger-looking! The results of microneedling can last for up to 5 months. In order to maintain these results, follow-up treatment may be necessary.
