Had my first Micro Needling treatment a couple days ago. When do you start seeing the results. I was told not to do anything to my face for 3 days then apply Lotion P50 1970 by Biologique Recherché and a good Moisturizer. Large pores, acne scars and hyperpigmentation I went in for. Thanks Chris
Answer: When do you see results after microneedling treatment. Most patients in our practice see results after even one treatment or 4 weeks later. Results continue to improve after each treatment. For results to be noticeable, the procedure needs to be done aggressively. Many patients come to our office feeling discourage because they had the procedure done elsewhere and the clinician did not do it properly. Also, plasma should always be infused during the procedure to enhance healing as well as the production of new collagen.

Answer: Microneedling Results Time Frame Thank you for your question, Chris. You should see some immediate minor improvements in the skin texture and have a nice ‘glow’ within a few days to a week after treatment. However, the textural changes, i.e. acne scar improvement, reduction in pore size, etc is often not appreciated until around the 3 month mark as it takes time to stimulate and build collagen. Also, be aware we recommend 4-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart depending on our concerns for maximum results.

Answer: Microneedling Results Typically patients are able to see some improvement in a week because your skin will peel and reveal the newer skin underneath. Most patients need anywhere from 3 to 5 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart. A patient typically will not see the optimal result until 2 to 3 months after the final treatment, because it takes time for cell renewal and for the collagen to remodel itself.

Answer: Does Micro Needling Work? Hello Acerone,And, thanks for the question. Sometimes it's hard to know what treatment is the best ONE to treat ALL of the issues that are bothering you. The Micropen is just one type of procedure to address these issues but may not be the final "bullet" to reach your goals.As an example, alternating your treatment with chemical peels and microdermabrasion may yield better and faster results. And, one treatment of any type will start to the process of improvement but it typically takes several days to see some change and multiple treatment to get the best result!In good health,Ellen Mahony, MD

Answer: Microneedling results Thanks a lot for your question. Skin microneedling is a simple, inexpensive office modality of treatment for the management of post-acne atrophic scars. It has favorable advantages as the epidermis remains intact, decreasing most of the risks and negative side effects of other invasive modalities for treatment of post-acne scars. the full result may take months to be achieved, as the deposition of new collagen takes place gradually, suggesting that continued skin microneedling treatment is required to achieve the desired clinical and histological improvement. Wish you all the best.
