How Long Does Microneedling Last?

Microneedling is a great option for those who want to revitalize their skin without an invasive procedure. Unlike laser procedures, microneedling can treat all skin types and pigmentations. Plus there’s the bonus of it being quick, easy, and painless.

We know that skincare is an investment and you want to get the most out of any procedure. So is microneedling worth it, and does it have long-lasting effects? Read on to find out.

When Will I See Results From Microneedling?

You’ll see almost immediate results after a microneedling procedure. The procedure jumpstarts your body’s natural healing process right away due to the tiny penetrations in your skin. Blood flow rushes to the area to heal these minuscule needle pricks, which increases your elastin and collagen production.

Many start seeing results within the first week, with steady gains over 3-4 weeks. Over time, your collagen production increases and you’ll notice your skin becoming smoother, firmer, and brighter. If the procedure is paired with radiofrequency, as we do at Balance Hormone Center, then the healing process will be even faster.

If you’re going in for a specific skin issue, such as acne scars or dark spots from sun damage, expect to need a small series of treatments. Your initial appointment with your physician will determine how many treatments you’ll need, and how far to space out the appointments.

How Long Do the Effects of Microneedling Last?

Typically, the results of microneedling last 3-5 months. The length of your treatment all depends on your skin’s condition, skincare routines, and age. If your collagen production is on the low side, you’ll probably need a follow-up appointment after a few months. Many schedule follow-up appointments once or twice a year to maintain their new, glowing skin.

There are some things you can do to preserve the effects of microneedling:

  • Limit sun exposure: Make sure to use a sunscreen with a strong SPF to protect your skin from harsh sun rays.
  • At-home skincare routine: Finding the right skincare routine can take years. You can consult with your dermatologist after your microneedling session to get recommendations for at-home skincare products. A good moisturizer can make all the difference.
  • Manage your stress: Being stressed out constantly is detrimental to our overall health and can wreak havoc on our skin. Have stress management techniques in your back pocket and make them a daily habit.

Microneedling is popular because it’s minimally invasive, painless, and easy to maintain. It requires very little upkeep overall and can treat a variety of skin issues, making it a viable option for many.
