Microneedling Long Island

Rejuvenate Your Skin With Microneedling

Microneedling, also called CIT (Collagen Induction Therapy,) is a cutting-edge skin treatment to help remove impurities, tighten the pores, combat acne scarring, and minimize lines, wrinkles, and creases. Through the use of ultra-thin needles that penetrate the skin, microneedling can help trigger collagen regeneration, leading to a softer, smoother, and more youthful complexion without the need for anesthesia or downtime.

Our highly trained staff perform microneedling in Long Island to help patients reclaim a pleasing, age-defying appearance.

What Is Microneedling?

Collagen is one of the vital proteins responsible for the plump, supple contours of youth. As the body ages, its natural production of collagen diminishes, leading to a host of cosmetic concerns, including volume loss and wrinkles. By creating strategic micro-injuries, microneedling can help jumpstart a new wave of collagen production, which in turn smooths and enhances aging skin.

Why Is Collagen So Important?

Collagen is an abundant protein in the body that makes up the majority of connective tissues in such areas as the tendons, ligaments, skin, and muscles. While collagen has many functions, in terms of cosmetic science, it functions as a strengthening agent for the skin’s scaffolding. While one’s natural supply of collagen diminishes with age, it can be regenerated through the introduction of micro-wounds. Microneedling is based on this mechanism of collagen renewal through micro-injuries.

What Can I Expect from the Procedure?

During your microneedling treatment, a specially designed handpiece delivers sterilized needles into the pores. These needles create tiny punctures that help trigger the body to heal itself through collagen renewal. We use a soothing gel prior to needle insertion that helps make the treatment comfortable and stress-free. Patients have described the process as similar to using an apricot scrub on their faces in terms of the discomfort level.

Microneedling can be paired with several serums or PRP (platelet-rich plasma) to increase its positive effects. Treatment typically lasts about half an hour, with results lasting up to 12 months.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Microneedling in Long Island?

Wrinkles, lines, and creases
Poor skin elasticity
Enlarged pores

What Will My Recovery Entail?

While minor swelling and redness are typical side effects after microneedling, there is no real recovery time to speak of. You’ll be able to return to your normal routine right away. Because it takes time for the body to renew its collagen supply, you may see results gradually rather than instantly. Within a few months, however, your skin will be firmer, tighter, clearer, and more radiant. It is suggested that you undergo a series of about six sessions for comprehensive improvement.
