I would like to have microneedling treatment for mild acne scarring , however I'm concerned if the needling could possibly cause sebaceous hyperplasia? Most information I have read suggests microneedling is a safe procedure & could not cause sebaceous hyperplasia ?
Answer: Microneedling Hello! Microneedling is a great treatment for acne scarring, especially when combined with a PRP treatment. This essentially means taking the plasma from your blood and applying it to the skin after your microneedling treatment. Microneedling will not cause sebaceous hyperplasia. Good luck!

Answer: Microneedling Safe & Effective For Superficial Color & Textural Problems I have been performing medical microneedling for well over twenty years, since the early days with the introduction of the original Dermaroller & Environ products and more recently with the electric stamping devices. Although microneedling is often touted for treating acne scars, it is really best reserved for use for dealing with residual skin color and textural issues that often remain following the application of more appropriate and more effective treatments for deeper acne scars to elevate and smooth them. Having said that, I can confidently say that I have never encountered nor am not aware from the medical literature of any instances of microneedling leading to the formation of sebaceous hyperplasia. I do, however, recommend before undergoing treatment that you discuss with your physician the issue of whether microneedling is actually appropriate for treating your kinds of acne scars. Wishing you the best of luck.

Answer: Microneedling for acne scarring Microneedling does not cause sebaceous hyperplasia as it works by simply creating small, temporary channels in the skin that stimulate the production of new collagen, and enhances penetration of topically applied serums at the time of treatment. Medical micro-needling has been proven to be an excellent treatment for acne scarring. However, the treatment is much more effective when combined with application of human growth-factor serum. In my office we use the ProCell Therapies system which combines motorized micro-needling with concentrated growth factor serums made from human bone marrow stem cells and are seeing excellent results in the treatment of acne scars. Because these are the stem cells that are much more involved in wound healing than any other stem cells inthe body, they are the ideal source for the growth-factors which are the messengers that very effectively stimulate formation of new collagen in the skin.
