Restore your skin’s natural, youthful radiance at Lasky Skin Center in Beverly Hills! Our expert microneedling services help to smooth and tighten skin, address discoloration, and more.
How Long Does Microneedling Take to Work?
As a regenerative skin treatment, microneedling stimulates your skin’s natural turnover cycle, promoting healing and new skin cell production. Depending on your specific skin concerns, it may take 4 to 6 weeks or more to see the full results of your treatment. This is how long it typically takes for your body to produce new, skin-plumping collagen and to replace damaged skin cells with newer, healthier ones.
For more significant skin concerns like scarring or moderate to deep wrinkles, multiple sessions may be necessary to achieve optimal results. These sessions should be scheduled about every 6 weeks to allow your skin to properly heal between treatments.
Can I Combine Microneedling with Other Treatments?
Yes! Microneedling combined with other nourishing, skin healing treatments can boost their effectiveness and optimize penetration. Lasky Skin Center offers microneedling that can be fully customized to include supplemental skincare treatments to enhance your skin’s radiance and natural beauty.
During your microneedling consultation, your dermatology specialist will examine your skin and recommend a treatment regimen to address your concerns. You can also ask about specific treatments if you believe they may be beneficial for you. Dr. William Kwan or another member of our team is more than happy to walk you through your options so you can make an educated decision about your skincare.
Will Microneedling Help with Loose Skin?
Microneedling in Beverly Hills, CA is great for tightening loose or sagging skin.
Most commonly skin looseness is caused by volume loss, typically associated with significant weight loss or aging. As we grow older, our skin naturally produces less collagen, which is responsible for keeping our skin firm yet supple.
With expert microneedling treatments at Lasky Skin Center, you can naturally increase and restore your skin’s collagen production. This helps to naturally fill out areas of skin sagging like the undereye, cheeks, and jawline. And because this is natural collagen restoration, there are no risks of ‘overdoing it’ or having an adverse reaction to filler ingredients. That said, microneedling does not permanently reverse collagen depletion. You will need to keep up with maintenance sessions to prevent sagging or loose skin from returning.
Can I Do Microneedling at Home?
There are at-home microneedling products available on the market today that promise great results. However, unless you are an experienced dermatology professional, these products can be dangerous to use on your own and cause more damage.
Misuse of home microneedling products can cause scarring, lead to infections, or otherwise cause permanent skin damage. It’s important you only receive microneedling treatments from a licensed professional.
At Lasky Skin Center, board-certified dermatologist Dr. William Kwan and our team of skin health specialists are experts in microneedling and other skin rejuvenation treatments. Schedule your appointment now to get started on your journey to clear, bright, beautiful skin.
