Who is a good candidate for microneedling?

Microneedling is a popular option for patients looking for a safe and non-surgical way to reduce acne scars, enlarged pores, and fine lines around the mouth and eyes. It’s also an ideal treatment option for patients with uneven skin tone or rough, aged skin. As a licensed medical aesthetician, Rebecca doesn’t recommend microneedling for those who: Are pregnant Are immunocompromised Have open wounds Have keloid scars Have certain skin diseases (eczema or psoriasis) Recently had radiation therapy

What microneedling options do you offer?

At Spiro Plastic Surgery, our experienced aesthetician uses two techniques for microneedling in New Jersey: PRF from CosmoFrance: Uses the advanced EZPRF system, which includes a specialized low-speed centrifuge designed to process platelet-rich fibrin without anticoagulants or additives. Unlike traditional PRP systems, the CosmoFrance device uses gentler centrifugation to preserve more platelets, fibrin, white blood cells, and growth factors within the final concentrate. SkinPen from Revance: SkinPen is the only FDA-cleared microneedling device in the United States. We use SkinPen with PRP to reduce acne scars, improve skin texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and rebuild elasticity. The microneedles in the SkinPen device create microscopic channels, stimulating the skin’s natural healing process and encouraging the production of new collagen and elastin. Once your provider makes these punctures, they apply the PRP to penetrate deeper into your skin in order to work more effectively and provide a more refreshed appearance.

Is there downtime after microneedling?

Most patients notice redness, warmth, or mild sensitivity after treatment, similar to a sunburn. These effects usually improve within a few days. If you’re considering microneedling in New Jersey, Rebecca will explain what to expect and how to care for your skin after your session.

Do I need a consultation before microneedling?

Yes. Your consultation is when Mikayla and our team will take time to evaluate your skin concerns and talk about your goals. Our team is incredibly collaborative and will customize your treatment plan based on what we think will most help you achieve your desired results.

When will I see results?

Most patients start to see visible improvements within 1 to 2 weeks of starting their microneedling treatments. Microneedling activates the body’s natural healing process to rebuild collagen, so it takes time for the final results to appear. After completing the full treatment series, final results are typically seen 3 to 6 months after as the skin continues to refine.
