What are the Benefits of Microneedling?

Are you thinking about getting a microneedling treatment in Brentwood, Tennessee? Whether you want to improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, fade dark spots and sunspots, or achieve softer, smoother skin, microneedling is a game-changing cosmetic treatment that our patients love to get. 

But what is microneedling? 

Microneedling is a newer cosmetic treatment that taps into the body’s natural healing process to improve a plethora of common cosmetic issues. 

During this treatment, one of our experienced providers uses a small, pen-like device inlaid with several tiny needles that gently pierce the skin, creating hundreds of microscopic injuries in the epidermis (top layer of skin). This triggers your body’s healing process, which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin fibers. 

While that may sound a bit scary, you can rest assured knowing that microneedling is a completely safe and effective procedure — especially when administered by one of our experienced, board-certified providers! 

 

Benefits of Microneedling 

As mentioned above, microneedling stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin fibers. Furthermore, the process of using tiny, microscopic needles to pierce the skin acts as a form of manual exfoliation, which also provides a number of remarkable benefits. 

 

Reduces the Appearance of Wrinkles and Fine Lines 

In the months following a microneedling treatment, the increase of collagen and elastin production can help smooth out and fill in wrinkles and fine lines. 

 

Improving Sun-Damaged Skin 

Do you have dark spots, sunspots, or other forms of discoloration from too much sun exposure? Microneedling can improve sun-damaged skin by forming a more even complexion. 

 

Smoothing Out Skin Texture 

If you have rough or uneven skin texture, microneedling can help smooth out your skin by rebuilding your lost collagen and elastin fibers. 

 

Heal Acne Scars

After suffering from severe acne, many people find that the common skin condition has left deep scars. Microneedling helps to heal acne scars by boosting the growth of collagen and elastin production and increasing cell turnover. 

 

Shrink Enlarged Pores 

If you have enlarged pores, microneedling may be an easy and effective way to achieve a better complexion. As new collagen and elastin fibers are created, your skin will appear tighter and your pores will look smaller. 

 

Improve the Appearance of Surgical Scars 

Did you know that microneedling can be administered on other parts of the body and not just the face? If you have a surgical scar, microneedling is an affordable and simple treatment that can help heal the skin and reduce its scarred appearance. 

 

Achieve a Youthful Glow 

Microneedling is one of the best anti-aging treatments. As the procedure exfoliates the skin, increases cell turnover, and stimulates collagen and elastin production, your complexion takes on a more rejuvenated and youthful appearance.
