Microneedling
Microneedling
Microneedling is a minimally invasive aesthetic procedure that uses fine needles to create controlled microchannels in the skin. The treatment is commonly used to address a variety of cosmetic concerns, including the appearance of fine lines, uneven skin texture, enlarged pores, and certain types of acne scars. At Skin Totale Med Spa, every microneedling treatment begins with a personalized consultation to determine whether the procedure is appropriate for your individual skin concerns and aesthetic goals.
Types of Microneedling Treatments
Depending on your needs and the recommendation of your provider, treatment options may include:
Traditional Microneedling – Uses fine needles to create controlled microchannels in the skin.
Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling – Combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy for selected aesthetic indications.
Microneedling with Topical Serums – May be performed with provider-recommended skincare products as appropriate.
PRP Microneedling – Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) may be recommended for selected patients when clinically appropriate.
Your provider will discuss which treatment option may be appropriate during your consultation.
