How often should you do microneedling?
Microneedling is an innovative procedure designed to enhance the appearance of your skin by stimulating your body’s natural healing processes, promoting increased collagen and elastin production.
Short-Term Effects:
Our microneedling procedure creates precise, controlled micro-injuries in your skin, activating a natural healing response. This results in immediate skin plumping and rejuvenation, leaving you with a refreshed and vibrant appearance that can last for several weeks to a few months.
Long-Term Transformation:
With consistent microneedling treatments, you can achieve more enduring improvements. The ongoing boost in collagen and elastin production reinforces your skin’s structure and elasticity. Over time, this can lead to smoother, firmer skin with diminished wrinkles and scarring. Whether you’re dealing with acne scars or other skin imperfections, our microneedling treatments offer a path to lasting enhancement.
Personalized Approach for Optimal Results:
Recognizing the unique nature of each individual’s skin, our expert team considers various factors that can influence the permanence of microneedling results:
• Age: As collagen production naturally decreases with age, our specialists tailor treatments to maximize longevity.
• Skin Type: We customize treatment depth and frequency based on your skin’s thickness and specific needs.
• Treatment Frequency: Aspire Medical Aesthetics offers personalized plans for regular sessions to maintain and amplify your results.
• Post-Treatment Care: We emphasize the importance of sun protection and a tailored skincare regimen to preserve the benefits of microneedling.
Ongoing Care and Support:
To extend the rejuvenating effects of microneedling, Aspire Medical Aesthetics recommends regular maintenance treatments.
At Aspire Medical Aesthetics, your safety and satisfaction are our priorities. Proper preparation and aftercare are key to achieving the best results from your microneedling treatment.
Before Your Microneedling Session
• Schedule a Consultation with Our Experts
Our dermatologists will assess your skin, discuss your goals, and determine if microneedling suits your needs.
• Protect Your Skin from UV Exposure
Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds at least one week before your session to minimize skin sensitivity.
• Manage Medication Intake
Consult with our team about safely pausing blood thinners to reduce bleeding risks during treatment.
• Tailor Your Skincare Routine
Stop using retinoids, glycolic acid, and exfoliants a few days before your session to prevent irritation.
• Prepare Your Skin
Lightly exfoliate to remove dead skin cells and arrive with clean, makeup-free, hydrated skin on the day of treatment.
After Your Microneedling Treatment
• Maintain Cleanliness
Use a gentle cleanser to keep your skin clean and avoid harsh products.
• Focus on Hydration
Apply soothing moisturizers regularly to aid healing.
• Shield Your Skin from the Sun
Use high-SPF sunscreen and avoid direct sun exposure.
• Avoid Irritation
Resist touching, scratching, or picking at your skin. Avoid strenuous exercise, hot showers, and saunas for 24–48 hours.
• Use Gentle Cosmetics
If needed, choose lightweight, non-comedogenic makeup.
• Adhere to Aftercare Guidelines
Follow our team’s instructions and avoid products with retinoids or acids until your skin heals, usually within a week.
• Plan Future Treatments
Schedule follow-up sessions as recommended to achieve optimal results.
By following these steps, you can maximize the benefits of microneedling while promoting effective healing and long-term results.
Microneedling and Botox are two of our most sought-after offerings, each designed to enhance your skin’s appearance and combat signs of aging. Understanding the differences between these treatments can help you make an informed decision tailored to your unique needs.
Mechanism of Action
• Microneedling: Our microneedling procedure utilizes advanced devices equipped with fine needles to create micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. This process naturally stimulates collagen and elastin production, promoting skin tightening and rejuvenation. Ideal for a variety of skin types and tones, microneedling effectively reduces wrinkles, improves texture, and diminishes acne scars, offering you a radiant and natural-looking complexion.
• Botox: Our expertly administered Botox injections target specific facial muscles, temporarily relaxing them to smooth out dynamic wrinkles like frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines. With our skilled professionals, Botox delivers a youthful, relaxed appearance, with visible results in just a few days.
Longevity of Results:
• Microneedling Results: Enjoy the benefits of microneedling for several months to a year, depending on your skin’s condition and lifestyle. To achieve optimal results, we recommend a series of treatments tailored to your individual needs.
• Botox Results: Experience the youthful effects of Botox for 3-6 months. As muscle activity gradually returns, maintenance treatments can help you sustain your desired look.
Risks and Benefits
Microneedling:
• Benefits: Stimulates collagen and elastin, enhances skin texture, and reduces wrinkles and acne scars.
• Risks: Temporary redness, swelling, or bruising; minimal risk of infection when performed by our trained professionals.
Botox:
• Benefits: Effectively smooths dynamic wrinkles, delivering a youthful, refreshed appearance.
• Risks: Minor bruising, swelling, or asymmetry; rare instances of muscle weakness or allergic reactions, all minimized by our experienced practitioners.
Micro needling is a premier solution for those seeking to rejuvenate their skin through a minimally invasive technique. This procedure stimulates collagen production, enhancing your skin’s texture and tone by creating micro-injuries with fine needles. Our approach is personalized, ensuring that each patient’s treatment plan aligns with their unique skin type, concerns, and goals.
Initial Treatment Schedule:
For newcomers to microneedling or those aiming for general skin maintenance, Aspire Medical Aesthetics recommends beginning with a series of 3-6 sessions, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. This schedule is designed to provide your skin with ample time to heal and produce new collagen, laying the groundwork for noticeable skin improvement.
Maintenance Regimen:
After achieving your desired results, we advise maintenance sessions every 3-12 months to sustain improvements in skin texture and tone. Our skilled practitioners will adjust this frequency based on your individual skin type and aging processes, ensuring long-lasting outcomes.
Considerations for Sensitive Skin:
For clients with sensitive skin, Aspire Medical Aesthetics adopts a cautious approach. We recommend longer intervals between treatments (6-8 weeks) and utilizing a lower needle depth to minimize irritation and ensure safe, effective results.
Specific Skin Conditions:
If you are dealing with specific skin concerns, such as deep acne scars or advanced signs of aging, our experts may suggest more frequent sessions initially, approximately every 4-8 weeks. This targeted approach helps achieve optimal results before transitioning to a maintenance schedule.
