What to Expect During a Microneedling Treatment


Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to rejuvenate the skin, improve its texture, and address various skin concerns such as scars, wrinkles, and large pores.


At NOJE, we are proud to offer you the Candela Exceed device. This device is dual FDA-approved for the treatment of wrinkles and acne scars. It is designed with a tilt plate to adapt to the skin’s surface to avoid the risk of injury to the skin and achieves adjustable penetration depth for individualized results.


What to Expect During a Microneedling Treatment


What should you expect during a microneedling treatment? During the procedure, the device is equipped with six very fine, short, sterile needles, or "microneedles," used to create tiny, controlled punctures on the skin's surface. These micro-injuries stimulate the body's natural wound-healing processes, including the production of collagen and elastin, which are vital for maintaining youthful, healthy skin.


A survey conducted by Candela reported:

  • 88% of subjects reported significant improvement of acne scars

  • 78% of subjects saw an improvement in periorbital wrinkles in just 90 days

  • 90% of patients saw an improvement in facial wrinkles

  • 88% reported they would recommend the treatment to family and friends


PREP FOR BEST RESULTS

Prior to a microneedling session in the office, it is important to properly prepare your skin at home to limit the risk of post-procedure adverse effects. At NOJE, it is recommended to use the leading medical-grade skincare, ZO Skin Health, at least one week prior to your microneedling session.

The microneedling session begins with thoroughly cleansing the skin and a gentle exfoliation, followed by the application of a numbing cream to ensure comfort throughout the treatment. The microneedling device is then gently pressed over the target areas, creating the microchannels. These channels not only trigger the healing process but also enhance the skin's ability to absorb topical treatments, such as ZO firming serum used during treatment, making them more effective. ZO firming serum improves the appearance of sagging and skin laxity. The entire procedure typically takes about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the area being treated.

Post-treatment, the skin may appear red and feel slightly sensitive, akin to a mild sunburn, but these effects usually subside within a few days. It's important to follow the aftercare instructions provided to ensure optimal results and minimize any potential side effects. It is recommended to use the ZO Skin Health post-procedure skincare kit curated for use one week following microneedling.

AFTER YOUR APPOINTMENT

Over the following weeks, patients often notice a visible improvement in their skin's texture and tone. Microneedling is a versatile treatment suitable for various skin types and can be customized to address individual skin concerns, making it a popular choice for those seeking a non-surgical approach to skin rejuvenation.


Optimal results are achieved when at least three microneedling sessions are completed four weeks apart in addition to daily, consistent use of ZO Skin Health professional grade skincare.
