Micro-needling has become one of the most popular nonsurgical cosmetic procedures for improving the appearance of skin. By causing controlled micro-injuries to the skin using fine needles, microneedling stimulates your skin’s natural collagen and elastin production. This results in smoother, plumper, and more youthful-looking skin.
Aesthetics Lab is recognized as a leader in providing specialized microneedling treatments. Our trained aestheticians are experts in microneedling and use high-quality dermal rollers and pen devices to achieve excellent results. In this article, we will explore how microneedling works, the results you can expect to see, costs, and why Aesthetics Lab should be your choice for microneedling treatments.
Microneedling is a non-invasive procedure that involves rolling tiny sterile needles over the skin to cause micro-punctures in the skin. The needles are very fine, usually 0.25-3mm in length, and result in controlled damage to the dermis that stimulates new collagen and elastin production.
When the needles puncture the skin, they trigger the body’s natural wound healing response. This involves the production of growth factors and cytokines that stimulate fibroblasts (collagen-producing cells). Over the next several weeks, your body’s healing process results in thickening of the dermal layer and an increase in collagen and elastin.
The end result is tighter, firmer, and smoother skin. Fine lines, wrinkles and signs of photoaging like uneven skin tone and texture are diminished. Microneedling also improves the absorption of topical creams and serums by creating micro-channels in the skin. This allows for deeper penetration of active skincare ingredients to further enhance results.
At Aesthetics Lab, we use state-of-the-art microneedling devices to achieve optimal results safely and comfortably. Our professional-grade dermal rollers have 192 diamond-tipped micro-needles of varying depths between 0.25mm to 3mm that are carefully rolled across your cleansed skin in multiple directions.
For those seeking even more intensive treatments, we also offer the Dr. Pen microneedling device. Used by many leading doctors and medispas, this advanced pen smoothly glides the needles into the skin for precision treatment of areas like the lips, under ethe yes and décolletage.
All of our treatments are performed by licensed nurses and estheticians who are fully trained in microneedling protocols. Several numbing creams are applied prior to treat to minimize any discomfort. The entire procedure takes only 30-45 minutes with minimal to no downtime.
We advise avoiding direct sun exposure, harsh alpha hydroxy acids and retinol for 2-3 days post treatment to allow your skin to heal properly. Aesthetics Lab provides all clients with a comprehensive at-home regimen including antibacterial cleansers, calming creams and SPF to use during this time.
Some minor flaking, redness or swelling may occur but resolves within 24-48 hours. Downtime is significantly less than laser resurfacing or other invasive procedures. Full results are seen within 3-6 months as your natural collagen production has increased over repeated microneedling sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart, for a total of 3-6 treatments.

At Aesthetics Lab, we believe that proper preparation is essential for maximizing the results and minimizing downtime associated with chemical peels. Here’s an overview of the steps involved in preparing for your treatment:
Our team may recommend a specific pre-treatment skin care regimen to prepare your skin for the chemical peel. This may include using gentle cleansers, exfoliating products, and hydrating serums. Following these recommendations will help to ensure that your skin is in optimal condition for the treatment.
On the day of your treatment, please arrive with clean, makeup-free skin. We will cleanse your skin again and apply a topical numbing cream to minimize discomfort during the procedure.
At Aesthetics Lab, we offer the option of adding platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to your microneedling treatment. PRP is a concentrated solution of platelets derived from your own blood. Platelets contain growth factors that can stimulate collagen production, accelerate healing, and enhance the results of microneedling.
Microneedling involves creating tiny punctures in the skin’s surface with fine needles to stimulate collagen production and promote skin rejuvenation. At Aesthetics Lab, we use advanced techniques to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Microneedling is generally safe for all skin types, but individual consultation with a skincare professional is recommended to assess any specific concerns or conditions.
Results can vary depending on individual skin concerns, but a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart is often recommended for optimal results. Your skincare provider can advise on the best treatment plan for your needs.
