At Deluxe Skin, our Fractional Microneedling treatment is performed by highly trained specialists to ensure your comfort and achieve the best possible results. Here’s what you can expect during the procedure:

1. Consultation and Skin Assessment

Before the treatment begins, we conduct a thorough consultation to understand your skin concerns and goals. Our skin specialists will assess your skin type and discuss your desired outcomes, ensuring that Fractional Microneedling is the right option for you.

2. Pre-Treatment Preparation

On the day of the treatment, the first step is to cleanse your skin thoroughly to remove any impurities, makeup, or oils. We then apply a topical numbing cream to the treatment area to minimize any discomfort during the procedure. The numbing cream will be left on for about 20-30 minutes, allowing it to take full effect.

3. Treatment Process

Once your skin is fully numbed, we use a specialized microneedling device to deliver tiny, controlled micro-injuries to the skin's surface. The device creates multiple fine needle pricks that penetrate the skin at varying depths, depending on your specific skin needs. These micro-injuries trigger the skin’s natural healing response, stimulating collagen and elastin production for smoother, firmer skin.

The procedure usually takes between 30-60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.

4. Post-Treatment Care

After the procedure, your skin may appear slightly red and feel sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn. This is a normal reaction, and the redness typically fades within a few hours to a couple of days, depending on your skin type and the intensity of the treatment.

We will apply a calming serum or moisturizer to hydrate and soothe your skin immediately after the treatment. You will also be provided with instructions for post-care, which may include avoiding direct sun exposure and using gentle skincare products in the following days.

5. Follow-Up Treatments

For optimal results, a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart is typically recommended. Each session builds on the last, gradually improving skin texture, reducing scars, and enhancing skin radiance.

6. Long-Term Results

Over time, as collagen production increases, you will begin to notice significant improvements in your skin’s texture, tone, and overall appearance. The full benefits of the treatment can take several weeks to appear, as the skin continues to regenerate. Many patients report smoother, firmer skin and a more youthful glow after completing their treatment course.

1. What is Fractional Microneedling?

Fractional Microneedling is a skin treatment that uses tiny, medical-grade needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This stimulates your body’s natural healing response, promoting collagen and elastin production, which helps to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and address skin concerns like acne scars and hyperpigmentation.

2. How does Fractional Microneedling work?

The microneedling device uses fine needles to create small, controlled punctures in the skin. These micro-injuries trigger the skin’s healing process, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin. Over time, this results in smoother, firmer, and more even-toned skin.

3. Is Fractional Microneedling painful?

The procedure is generally well-tolerated, as a topical numbing cream is applied to the skin before the treatment to ensure comfort. While you may feel mild discomfort or a tingling sensation during the procedure, it should not be painful. Most patients find it to be a relatively comfortable experience.

4. How long does the treatment take?

The treatment typically takes around 30-60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area. The length of the procedure may vary based on individual needs and the targeted skin concerns.

5. What can I expect after the treatment?

After the treatment, your skin may appear slightly red and feel sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn. This redness usually fades within a few hours to a couple of days, depending on your skin type and the intensity of the treatment. You may also experience some mild dryness or flakiness in the days following the procedure, which is part of the skin’s natural healing process.

6. How many treatments will I need?

For optimal results, 3-6 treatments spaced about 4-6 weeks apart are generally recommended. The number of treatments may vary based on your specific skin goals and the condition of your skin. Your skincare specialist will provide a personalized treatment plan during your consultation.

7. When will I start seeing results?

The full results of Fractional Microneedling typically take several weeks to appear as the skin continues to heal and collagen production increases. Most patients begin noticing smoother skin, improved texture, and a more radiant complexion within 3-4 weeks after their first treatment. Results will continue to improve over time.

8. Are there any side effects or risks?

Fractional Microneedling is generally safe with minimal risks. The most common side effects are mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity in the treated area. These side effects are temporary and usually subside within a few hours to a couple of days. As with any skin treatment, there is a small risk of infection, but this is rare when proper aftercare instructions are followed.

9. Is there any downtime after the treatment?

There is minimal downtime associated with Fractional Microneedling. You may experience some redness and mild sensitivity immediately after the treatment, but this typically fades within a few hours. Most people can return to their normal activities the same day, though it’s important to avoid direct sun exposure and follow the aftercare instructions provided by your skincare specialist.

10. Who is a good candidate for Fractional Microneedling?

Fractional Microneedling is suitable for most skin types and can be beneficial for individuals looking to improve their skin’s texture, reduce fine lines, scars, or pigmentation, and enhance overall skin tone. If you have specific skin conditions, such as active acne or certain skin infections, a consultation with your skincare specialist will help determine if this treatment is right for you.

11. How should I care for my skin after the treatment?

After Fractional Microneedling, it’s essential to follow a gentle skincare routine. Avoid using harsh skincare products, direct sun exposure, and makeup for the first 24-48 hours. Your specialist will provide you with specific aftercare instructions, which may include using gentle moisturizers, hydrating serums, and sunscreen to protect your skin as it heals.
