Microneedling at Skin Select triggers your body's own collagen response. Results build across sessions, with each treatment adding to what the previous one started.
How it Works
Our expert practitioners will assess your skin concerns and goals to create a customized treatment plan. We'll discuss the optimal number of sessions needed and whether combining with PRP or other serums would enhance your results.
Using a professional microneedling device, we create thousands of microscopic channels in your skin at precisely controlled depths. These micro-injuries trigger your skin's natural healing response while allowing for enhanced product absorption. The treatment can be
customized by adjusting needle depth and combining with therapeutic serums.
Following your Microneedling Facial Treatment session, your skin begins its natural regeneration process. While you may experience mild redness for 24-48 hours, you can return to most daily activities immediately. Results continue to develop as your skin produces new collagen over the following weeks.
