Would microneedling be a good choice for skin maintenance even if you don't have an orange peel complexion?

Asked By:mehsmom in Emeryville, CA

I have been curious about using micro needling for regular skin maintenance, but wonder if it may be overkill because I do not possess an orange peel complexion. I am 56. I am experiencing some skin laxity (slight jowling), fine lines, and some pores becoming more obvious in size, but I do not have a bad complexion. I use Retin-A at night with a moisturizer with AHA in it. During the day, I use a moisturizer with a sunscreen. Thank you for your attention to my question! :-)
