Your Guide to Microneedling: What Happens During a Session

July 4, 2024

Microneedling is a popular aesthetic treatment that offers remarkable results for various skin concerns. At Tufford Medical Aesthetics, we pride ourselves on having in-depth knowledge and expertise on this treatment. This guide will take you through what to expect during a microneedling session at our clinic.


What is Microneedling?


Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive procedure that aims to revitalize the skin. It involves using a device with tiny, sterile needles that create microscopic punctures in the skin. This triggers the body’s natural healing process, resulting in increased collagen and elastin production. The outcome is smoother, rejuvenated skin.


Preparation for Your Session


Preparing appropriately for your microneedling session at Tufford Medical Aesthetics ensures optimal results. You should cleanse your skin and avoid applying any products on the day of your appointment. We also recommend that you avoid sun exposure and refrain from using retinoids at least 48 hours before your session.


What Happens During a Microneedling Session?


On arrival at Tufford Medical Aesthetics, our expert aestheticians will commence with a consultation to understand your skin's specific needs. We take our time to discuss your skin goals and answer any questions you may have.


The actual microneedling procedure starts with cleansing your skin. We then apply a topical numbing cream to maximize comfort during the session. Once your skin is numbed, we use the microneedling device to create microscopic punctures, paying special attention to your target areas. The procedure usually lasts about 60 minutes.


Aftercare and Results


After your microneedling session, it's normal to notice slight redness on your skin. We'll provide aftercare instructions, which include applying a gentle moisturizer and avoiding sun exposure. Results typically start to show in about 4-6 weeks as collagen and elastin are gradually produced.
