MicroNeedling FAQs

What are the risks of microneedling?

Microneedling is generally safe, but like any procedure, it does carry some risks. These can include skin redness, swelling, and minor bruising. However, at our Sanford, Florida spa, our qualified professionals will make sure to minimize these risks and guide you through the entire process to ensure your comfort and safety.

Who should not get microneedling?

Microneedling might not be suitable for individuals who have certain skin diseases, active acne, or are pregnant. Always consult with our professionals at our Sanford, Florida medical spa to determine if this treatment is right for you.

What is the recovery time for microneedling treatments?

Typically, the recovery time for microneedling is minimal, with most people able to return to normal activities within a day. The skin may appear red and feel sensitive for a few days. Our provider and Patient Care Coordinator will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to facilitate the healing process.

What are the risks of DIY microneedling at home?

Performing microneedling at home, while possible with available devices, comes with several risks. Without proper sanitation, there's an increased risk of infection, an issue mitigated at professional spas like ours in Sanford, Florida, which adhere to strict hygiene protocols. Untrained individuals may use improper techniques or overly long needles, potentially causing skin damage including scarring or hyperpigmentation.

 

Furthermore, without a professional skin assessment, individuals with certain skin types or conditions may face higher risk of complications. Lack of professional aftercare guidance could also lead to complications or suboptimal results. Therefore, to ensure safety and efficacy, we highly recommend having microneedling treatments performed by trained professionals.

What skin conditions can microneedling treat?

Microneedling can treat a variety of skin conditions, including fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin texture, enlarged pores, acne scars, stretch marks, and even hyperpigmentation. Our experts in Sanford, Florida will assess your skin and recommend the best course of treatment for you.

Can microneedling improve scars?

Yes, microneedling can effectively reduce the appearance of scars, including acne scars, by promoting the growth of new skin tissue. Many clients at our Sanford, Florida spa have seen significant improvement in their scars after microneedling sessions.

Can microneedling reduce the appearance of wrinkles?

Absolutely! By stimulating collagen production, microneedling can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Can microneedling lighten age spots?

Microneedling can help to lighten age spots by triggering the skin's natural healing process and promoting new, healthier skin growth.

Can microneedling treat acne?

Microneedling is a popular treatment for acne scars due to its ability to stimulate collagen production and promote the growth of new skin. By doing so, it can help to fill in acne scars and smooth the skin's surface, leading to a more even complexion. However, it's important to note that microneedling is not typically recommended for active acne. The process of puncturing the skin can potentially spread bacteria from acne pustules, leading to more widespread breakouts or even infection.

How painful are microneedling treatments?

Microneedling is typically well-tolerated by patients, but the experience can vary based on individual pain tolerance and the specific area being treated. A numbing cream is generally applied beforehand to help minimize any discomfort. During the procedure, patients often report a sensation similar to mild prickling or a slight tingling. However, the depth of needle penetration can also influence the level of discomfort; deeper treatments may cause more discomfort than superficial ones. It's important to communicate with your provider, such as our team at our Sanford, Florida medical spa, about any concerns or discomfort during the procedure. Our professionals are trained to adjust the treatment according to your comfort level to make the procedure as painless as possible.
