Could Microneedling possibly cause sebaceous hyperplasia?

g7352
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 ?
