In recent years, microneedling has gained significant popularity in the field of skincare. This is largely due to its numerous benefits and effectiveness in addressing various skin and hair concerns. This minimally invasive procedure is carried out by way of a device equipped with tiny needles that create microchannels in the skin, stimulating the body's natural healing response.
Microneedling comes with many benefits and can unlock the potential for healthier, more radiant skin. Dr. Levin has years of experience in performing these treatments and curates individualized treatment plans for his patients to help them reach their aesthetic goals.

The powerful effects of microneedling
Enhanced collagen production
One of the key benefits of microneedling is its ability to enhance collagen production. As the tiny needles penetrate the skin's surface, they create controlled micro-injuries, triggering the body's healing process. This causes new collagen and elastin fibers to be produced, which are essential for maintaining skin firmness, elasticity, and a youthful appearance. Increased collagen levels ultimately lead to a reduction in fine lines, wrinkles, and even acne scars, resulting in smoother, more rejuvenated skin.
Improved efficacy of topical skin products
Microneedling also promotes better absorption of skincare products. The microchannels created during the procedure allow topical products to reach deeper levels of the skin, maximizing their effectiveness. This means that serums, creams, and other skincare treatments applied immediately after microneedling can deliver their active ingredients more efficiently, leading to improved hydration, nourishment, and overall skin health.
Improvements in skin tone
In addition to collagen stimulation and enhanced product absorption, microneedling can help improve skin texture and tone. It can drastically reduce issues such as enlarged pores, uneven skin texture, and hyperpigmentation. The controlled injury caused by the microneedles prompts the skin to produce new cells, leading to a smoother and more even complexion. Over time, microneedling can also help reduce the visibility of age spots, sun damage, and other skin discolorations, resulting in a more balanced and radiant skin tone.
Hair loss treatment
Microneedling is not limited to facial treatments. It is also incredibly helpful to those struggling with hair loss. Microneedling improves blood flow to the scalp, stimulating dormant hairs to become active again. It can even promote the growth of new hairs. Studies show that after undergoing a microneedling session, cells associated with balding decreased greatly, and cells associated with healthy hair proliferated in the scalp.
What is the takeaway?
It is important to note that while microneedling is generally considered safe, it is essential that patients refer to a qualified professional to ensure proper technique and hygiene. A trained skin care specialist or dermatologist can provide personalized recommendations and guidance, tailoring the treatment to your specific needs and goals.
