Do you ever feel like you’ve aged drastically overnight? A lot of people feel this way! As soon as you start to notice the first fine line or wrinkle, it is like you just cannot stop noticing them! However, rather than getting down every time you spot a new wrinkle or scar on your face, why not try microneedling? Microneedling is an effective treatment that can give you many anti-aging benefits.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a procedure that will stimulate your skin’s own collagen and elastin production. It is a non-invasive and non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatment. A cordless device with a sterile needle tip will be used to penetrate your skin. This creation of micro-injuries will jumpstart the body’s natural healing process, increasing collagen and elastic production. The result is skin that looks bright, radiant, and youthful.
Microneedling Aftercare Products
After you have had your treatment, it is imperative to look after the skin! You will be provided with some aftercare instructions from our estheticians and it is crucial that you follow them.
For the first 24 hours, you will be advised to simply use tepid water to rinse the treatment area. For the next 72 hours, a gentle cleanser will be recommended, as you will need to ensure your skin is being treated gently.
There are some products that you can use to look after your skin after this. Hyaluronic acid is often advised after microneedling. This is because hyaluronic acid can help to get that production of collagen going once you have had your treatment.
We have several skincare product options to provide an effective and safe way of hydrating your face and locking in moisture after the treatment.
Don’t forget, though; everyone’s skin is different, so listen to the specific aftercare advice given to you by Dr. Holley and his team of experienced professionals.

There are many different benefits that are associated with microneedling. Microneedling can be used to decrease the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. In addition to this, it can reduce rosacea, fight stretch marks, and enhance the effectiveness of topical skin care products.
Furthermore, microneedling shrinks pores, helps with sun damage, and can reduce the appearance of scars. When you take all of this into account, it is not hard to see why microneedling has become such a popular treatment for so many people today.
Am I a Candidate for Microneedling?

A good candidate is someone who is searching for a treatment to aid them with any of the common complexion issues, including acne scars, uneven skin tone, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines.
