What Is Microneedling?
When home skin care products aren't proving effective, but you don't want to undergo a surgical procedure, consider minimally invasive procedures for skin rejuvenation, such as microneedling. Dr. Oben Blair Ojong is happy to offer microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, at her office in The Woodlands, TX. Microneedling uses several fine needles to safely and effectively create micro-injuries in the needed areas of the skin. The micro-injuries prompt the natural production of elastin and collagen, two nutrients that enhance your complexion's overall health and appearance. Often performed with other skin treatments, like serums or PRP (platelet-rich plasma), microneedling can help reduce stretch marks, scars, and pores. Schedule a consultation at Rêve Dermatology and Aesthetics to discover more about the benefits of microneedling and ways to customize your treatment for your needs and goals.
How Does Microneedling Work?
A microneedling treatment takes around 30 – 60 minutes to complete and is performed in one of our office procedure rooms with local anesthesia or numbing cream if desired; however, patients typically report mild or no discomfort. The areas of skin being addressed will be cleaned before the handpiece is passed evenly over. Once the microneedling is performed, a topical treatment, such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or a serum with a vitamin infusion, can be applied for deeper penetration of the nutrients into the skin. A moisturizer will be massaged in along with sunscreen since the treated skin will be more sensitive following the procedure.
