Can micro-needling be used in hands and neck?

Question

I would like to know if microneedling can be a solution for repairing skin in my hands and neck. What other parts of the body can it be used on.

Robert W. Sheffield, MD · Answer

Microneedling is commonly used in the face.Fortunately, it can also be used in other parts of the body. Microneedling isfound to be effective in managing issues in the neck as well as the hands. Themost common issues resolved by microneedling in these parts include wrinklesand sun damages. It can also be used to resolve stretch marks in the thighs andabdomen.
To have better results, microneedling is also coupledwith serums containing human growth factors. Microneedling improves thedelivery of these serums as well as the body’s absorption of them so with topical agents likeserums, the results are much better than just using microneedling alone. Now,these results would greatly depend on the seriousness of the skin issues thatyou need to resolve. You may do well in consulting a board certified doctor whocould check on your case and advise the best number of microneedling sessionsto achieve the results that you want.

Using the Aquagold Fine touch (Micro-Needling) we are able to directly infuse the skin with whatever ingredients we find best for each individual. The Aquagold fine touch uses a microchannel technology to effectively deliver ingredients right into the surface of the skin. Using twenty individual micro-needles that are each thinner than a human hair we are penetrating into the skin to deliver specific treatments. Can be done on face, neck and decolette to treat any textural irregularities including: fine lines & wrinkles, large pores, acne scars or uneven-ness.

Hi eligala, Microneedling is very versatile and can be done in almost any part of the body including the neck, hands, decolletage, arms, back, and stretchmarks on the abdomen, thighs or legs.  It is specially effective for areas that suffered a lot of sun-damage or collagen breakdown. It has been used to treat cellulite with varying success.All the best, Justin Harper, M.D.

In my office we have been getting excellent results micro-needling many other areas of the body besides the face. It is effective for treating wrinkles and sun damaged skin on the neck and hands as well as stretch marks on the abdomen and thighs. Because micro-needling
has been shown to enhance delivery of topically applied skin care products, we
combine micro-needling treatments with human growth factor serums to get
the best results. In my office we use the ProCell Therapies system which
combines motorized micro-needling with concentrated human growth factor serums
made from human stem cells. Our patients also use ProCell Therapies growth
factor serum at home after the office treatment.
