Overview
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling uses a device fitted with fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin's surface. This sounds intense, but the punctures are extremely small and shallow, just enough to trigger your skin's natural wound-healing response, which includes new collagen and elastin production.
Over the following weeks, that rebuilding process gradually improves the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, and uneven texture. Because it works with your skin's own repair mechanism rather than removing layers of skin, microneedling tends to have less downtime than more aggressive resurfacing options.
Know The Signs
Symptoms & Causes
Common Symptoms
- Pitted or textured scarring left behind by acne
- Enlarged, visible pores
- Fine lines, particularly around the eyes or mouth
- Uneven skin texture that makeup tends to settle into
- Overall skin that looks and feels less firm than it used to
What Causes It
- Past acne breakouts that damaged collagen in the skin
- Natural collagen decline that comes with age
- Sun damage breaking down existing collagen and elastin
- Enlarged pores from excess oil production over time
- Scarring from injuries, chickenpox, or other skin trauma
Why It Helps
Benefits of Microneedling
Stimulates your own collagen
Results build gradually and naturally, without introducing foreign substances.
Softer-looking scars
Particularly effective for pitted or textured acne scarring.
Improved overall texture
Skin feels smoother and pores appear less noticeable.
Minimal downtime
Most patients see redness settle within a day or two.
Works on multiple concerns at once
Scarring, fine lines, and texture can all improve from the same sessions.

Unlike some lasers, microneedling carries lower risk of pigment changes.
