What is Microneedling?

Microneedling (also called collagen induction therapy or skin needling) is a minimally invasive procedure that involves using tiny needles to create thousands of micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. This process stimulates the natural skin healing process, resulting in increased collagen and elastin production. The result is smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin. At NOVA Concierge Medicine & Aesthetics, we use the Dr. Pen Microneedling device, which is known for its precision and effectiveness in delivering optimal results.

Why Choose Microneedling?

The microneedling procedure with the Dr. Pen device offers precise and effective skin rejuvenation, stimulating collagen production and improving skin texture. Adding PRP or Exosomes enhances the treatment’s efficacy, providing faster healing and superior results. This combination offers a comprehensive approach to achieving a more youthful and radiant complexion without invasive procedures.

Key Benefits of Microneedling

Stimulates Collagen Production: The procedure promotes the production of collagen and elastin, essential proteins that improve skin texture and elasticity.

Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: By stimulating collagen, microneedling helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on aging skin.

Improves Skin Texture and Tone: The treatment enhances uneven skin tone and texture, treats acne scars, and reduces enlarged pores on lighter and darker skin tones.

Minimally Invasive: Microneedling requires no downtime and is a non-surgical way to achieve youthful, glowing skin.

Areas Treated with Microneedling

1. Face: Microneedling is highly effective for facial rejuvenation. It helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars while improving overall skin texture and tone. The result is a smoother, more youthful complexion.

2. Neck: The neck area often shows signs of aging and sun damage. Microneedling tightens and smooths the skin on the neck, reducing wrinkles and improving skin texture.

3. Décolletage: The décolletage (chest area) can develop sunspots and fine lines. Microneedling rejuvenates this area by reducing pigmentation and improving skin smoothness.

4. Hands: Hands often reveal aging signs like wrinkles and sunspots. Microneedling improves skin texture and tone on the hands, giving them a more youthful appearance.

5. Scarring: Microneedling is effective for treating various types of scarring, including acne scars and surgical scars. It refines the skin’s surface and reduces the appearance of scars as well as stretch marks.

Enhanced Microneedling with PRP or Exosomes

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP): PRP is derived from your own blood and is rich in growth factors that accelerate the healing process and enhance results. When added to Microneedling, PRP:

Boosts Collagen Production: PRP further stimulates collagen and elastin production, leading to even more significant improvements in skin texture and elasticity.

Reduces Recovery Time: PRP can help to minimize downtime and enhance the overall healing process.

Improves Skin Brightness and Tone: PRP promotes a radiant complexion and evens out skin tone.

Exosomes: Exosomes are cellular components that facilitate cell communication and regeneration. When incorporated into Microneedling, Exosomes:

Enhance Cellular Repair: Exosomes support faster and more efficient cellular repair and regeneration, leading to improved skin healing.

Boost Skin Hydration: Exosomes enhance skin hydration and elasticity, providing a plumper and more youthful appearance.

Reduce Inflammation: They help to reduce post-treatment inflammation and accelerate recovery.

What to Expect During Your Microneedling Treatment

Consultation: Your journey begins with a thorough consultation to discuss your skincare goals and assess your skin condition. We’ll develop a personalized treatment plan, including the potential addition of PRP or Exosomes, based on your needs.

Procedure: The Microneedling treatment with the Dr. Pen device typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the area treated. During the procedure, you may experience mild discomfort. A topical numbing cream is applied to ensure your comfort throughout the session.

Aftercare: Post-treatment, you may experience redness and minor swelling, which usually resolves within a few days. The skin may also feel dry or tight as it heals. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to help you achieve the best results and ensure a smooth recovery.

Results: You can expect to see initial improvements within a few weeks, with optimal results becoming apparent over several months as collagen production continues. Microneedling offers long-lasting benefits, with maintenance sessions recommended to sustain results.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny punctures stimulate the body’s natural healing process, promoting collagen and elastin production, which helps improve skin texture, tone, and firmness.

How many microneedling treatments are needed?

The number of microneedling treatments required varies based on individual skin concerns and goals. Most patients see noticeable improvements after 3 to 6 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. Your provider will create a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs.

What is the downtime after a microneedling treatment?

Downtime after microneedling is typically minimal. Patients may experience redness, swelling, and a sensation similar to a mild sunburn for a few hours to a couple of days. The skin may also feel dry and slightly rough as it heals. Most people can resume normal activities within a day or two.

What are the common side effects of microneedling?

Common side effects include redness, swelling, and mild discomfort in the treated area. Some patients may also experience temporary dryness or flaking of the skin. These side effects are generally mild and resolve within a few days. Rare side effects can include infection or scarring, which can be minimized by following post-treatment care instructions.

How long do the results of microneedling last?

Results from microneedling can last for several months to years, depending on factors such as skin type, age, and lifestyle. The treatment stimulates collagen production, leading to long-term improvements in skin texture and appearance. Regular maintenance treatments may be recommended to sustain results.

Flew in from Chicago to have this doctor assess and treat my lax and old skin! Dr Zaidi was most definitely worth the trip!

A.S

Came here because they just opened up in the same building. I’m so happy, a lot of my clients I sent over also love Dr Z. She is the kindest person I have met and my clients love her so much. She is so knowledgeable on everything and even more. I trust only Dr Z for all my needs. I got some fillers and Botulinum Toxin but I didn’t know what I needed when I went in but she was thorough and explained the anatomy, and why I needed what. She also kept telling me to be real and that miracles don’t happen after one visit. I’ll definitely be back she’s worth it. Also reasonable priced compared to other areas.

D.N

After waiting years to find a reputable and quality service for laser hair removal, I was so pleased to have found Dr. Zaidi’s services. She did an amazing job with my treatment. It was painless, clean & efficient. The office ambiance is so eloquent, the equipment is top notch. You really are getting a luxury experience from check in, to check out. Thank you, and can’t wait for my next appt! I highly recommended checking this secret gem out for your medical and/or aesthetic needs.

W.J.

The exceptional, highest quality care, products & technique that has always been experienced at NOVA Concierge is now matched by the dazzling new offices. I can’t say enough positive things about Dr. Zaidi - she is quite simply exactly what the industry has been missing. Her expertise, eye for detail, & genuine warmth put any anxieties to rest. You will be thrilled with your results!

A.M.

I’ve been very happy with all the procedures I have received from Dr. Zaidi. She and her staff are professional and super friendly. Dr. Zaidi takes the time to explain everything and doesn’t pressure me to do something she may suggest. The new office is exquisite and I like going there for my visits.

B.A.

She was so caring, willing to listen so rare to find in a doctor. She gave me all the options and prices before we started anything and wasn't pushy. She took time to understand my face and my needs.

A.J.

I met Dr. Zaidi through a friend whose recommendations I trust. Never thought I’d be a Botulinum Toxin/filler “girl”, and explained all my concerns about looking unnatural. She understood and reassured me, so I decided to take the plunge. I’m so glad I did! The treatments were exactly what I was looking for, natural but improved. Subtle, yet such a difference!! I wish I had met her years ago. I’ve already referred a friend who loves her and the treatments as well. I’m back for a halo treatment and RF micro needling to address my neck and décolleté area, damaged from decades of sun exposure. I have every confidence in her ability to help me feel more confident about myself.
