Question 1

What is microneedling?

Accepted Answer

Microneedling is a skin rejuvenation treatment that creates tiny channels in the skin to stimulate the body's natural collagen production. This process helps improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance over time.

Question 2

What types of microneedling do you offer?

Accepted Answer

We offer three microneedling options at Rejuvenate Skin Spa:  • Traditional Microneedling – Classic collagen induction therapy using ultra-fine needles • SQT Bio-Microneedling – Needle-free treatment using natural marine sponge spicules • Plasma Microneedling – Advanced treatment combining plasma technology with microneedling for enhanced results

Question 3

How do I know which microneedling option is right for me?

Accepted Answer

The best option depends on your skin concerns, sensitivity, and how much downtime you can accommodate. SQT Bio is ideal for sensitive skin or first-timers with minimal downtime. Traditional Microneedling is versatile for general rejuvenation. Plasma Microneedling offers the most intensive results for deeper concerns. We're happy to discuss your goals by phone or during a consultation.

Question 4

Is microneedling safe?

Accepted Answer

Yes, when performed by a trained professional, microneedling is safe and effective. We use medical-grade equipment and customize the treatment to your skin type and concerns. We'll review your medical history and skin condition before recommending a treatment.

Question 5

Who should avoid microneedling?

Accepted Answer

Microneedling may not be suitable for those with active skin infections, certain skin conditions, or who are pregnant. Those with a history of keloid scarring or blood clotting disorders should also consult with their provider. Your provider will review your history during a consultation to determine if the treatment is appropriate for you.

Question 6

Can microneedling help with texture and acne scarring?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Microneedling is commonly used to address uneven texture, enlarged pores, and the appearance of acne scars. Results depend on the severity of the concern and the treatment plan selected. Multiple sessions typically provide the best results for scarring.

Question 7

What happens during a microneedling treatment?

Accepted Answer

Your skin will be cleansed and a topical numbing cream is typically applied to minimize discomfort. The treatment device is then passed over the skin to create controlled micro-channels. A hydrating serum may be applied during or after treatment. The entire session typically takes 45–75 minutes depending on the treatment type.

Question 8

Is microneedling painful?

Accepted Answer

A topical numbing cream is typically applied before treatment to minimize discomfort. Most clients describe the sensation as mild pressure or a light prickling feeling. SQT Bio-Microneedling is generally the most comfortable option as it doesn't use traditional needles.

Question 9

How many sessions will I need?

Accepted Answer

Most clients see the best results from a series of 3–6 treatments, spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Your provider will recommend a plan based on your goals and the specific treatment type. Some concerns like deep scarring may require additional sessions.

Question 10

What is the recovery time after microneedling?

Accepted Answer

Recovery varies by treatment type:  • SQT Bio-Microneedling – Minimal downtime; mild redness for 24–48 hours • Traditional Microneedling – 1–3 days of redness and sensitivity • Plasma Microneedling – 2–5 days of redness, possible mild swelling  Most clients return to normal activities within a few days.

Question 11

What aftercare is required after microneedling?

Accepted Answer

Post-treatment care typically includes:  • Avoiding direct sun exposure and wearing SPF 30+ daily • Using gentle, hydrating cleansers and moisturizers • Avoiding retinoids, exfoliants, and active ingredients for 5–7 days • Not touching or picking at treated skin • Avoiding saunas, steam rooms, and intense exercise for 24–48 hours

Question 12

Can I wear makeup after microneedling?

Accepted Answer

We recommend waiting at least 24 hours before applying makeup after microneedling. For Traditional and Plasma Microneedling, waiting 48–72 hours is ideal to allow the micro-channels to close. When you do apply makeup, use clean brushes and mineral-based products.

Question 13

When will I see results from microneedling?

Accepted Answer

Initial improvements may be noticeable within 1–2 weeks as skin heals and begins to regenerate. However, collagen remodeling continues over several months. Full results are typically seen 2–3 months after completing a series of treatments.

Question 14

How long do microneedling results last?

Accepted Answer

Results can last 6 months to over a year depending on your skin concerns, treatment type, and skincare routine. Maintaining results requires sun protection, a good skincare regimen, and periodic maintenance treatments as recommended by your provider.

Question 15

Can I combine microneedling with other treatments?

Accepted Answer

Yes, microneedling can be combined with other treatments for enhanced results. Popular combinations include pairing microneedling with chemical peels, LED therapy, or PRP (platelet-rich plasma). Treatments are typically spaced appropriately to allow for proper healing. We'll create a customized plan based on your goals.
