In this article, we’ll walk you through how a microneedling facial works, its benefits, and why Kay Dermatology is Burbank’s trusted choice for advanced, natural-looking skin treatment results.
What Are the Benefits of Microneedling?
When performed by experienced professionals, microneedling treatment offers a host of visible, lasting skin benefits:
- Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Produces more collagen, so skin looks and feels younger
- Improves Texture and Tone: Smooths acne scars, minimizes pores and refines skin’s surface
- Brightens Complexion: Enhances radiance and evens out uneven skin tone
- Gentle Melasma Treatment: Targets pigmentation without harsh chemicals or lasers
- Minimally Invasive: No surgery or prolonged recovery is needed
- Natural Collagen Stimulation: Activates your body’s healing response for subtle, long-term rejuvenation
Whether you’re dealing with sun damage or pigmentation or want a clearer glow, microneedling facial treatments offer safe, effective results.
What Happens During a Microneedling Facial?
At Kay Dermatology, we provide a tailored experience for every microneedling treatment. Here’s what to expect:
- Personalized Consultation: We review your goals and evaluate areas of concern.
- Pre-Treatment Preparation: An anesthetic is applied to ensure comfort during the procedure
- Microneedling Session: Microinjuries are created by using an ultra-fine needle device to stimulate collagen production
- Targeted Serum Infusion: Hyaluronic acid, growth factors, or vitamin-rich serums are applied to enhance your skin treatment
- Post-Treatment Healing: Skin may appear flushed, like a mild sunburn, for 1 to 3 days
Treatments typically take 45 to 60 minutes and involve minimal recovery time.
Is Microneedling Right for You?
You may be a great candidate for microneedling treatment if you:
- Have fine lines, acne scarring, or sun damage
- Are seeking a non-ablative melasma treatment
- Prefer a natural, collagen-based skin treatment over harsh lasers or chemicals
- Experience dull, rough, or uneven skin tone
- Want results without surgery or extended downtime
Microneedling facials are safe for all skin types and tones, and are often recommended as part of a long-term skin health strategy.
