Microneedling is a popular skin rejuvenation procedure that helps correct numerous skin concerns like loose skin, fine lines and wrinkles, and acne scars. An alternative to chemical peels, microneedling achieves similar results without causing skin to flake and peel. Microneedling works to improve overall skin health by stimulating collagen, which plumps up the skin, and is ideal for treating:
Microneedling is safe and effective for all skin types and ethnicities. It’s also great for virtually all areas of the body: face, neck, chest, knees, etc. It can also greatly diminish the appearance of stretch marks and it pairs well with IPL.
At WIFH, we use the SkinPen microneedling device. It is a handheld powered device and looks similar to a large writing pen. It has a tip that contains microscopic needles that painlessly pass over the skin creating thousands of micro channels in the skin at rate of 1600 per second. These tiny punctures or wounds are not visible, but they are enough for your bodies’ natural healing process to be initiated. Through your body’s production of collagen and elastin, which are the building blocks to skin tissue, it plumps the skin improving texture, tone and reduces pore size; it helps thicken, tighten and firm the skin leaving it smooth and soft.
During your treatment, we will apply a serum containing a high concentration of natural growth factors that will penetrate the tiny punctures in the skin. These growth factors help to speed up and increase collagen and elastin production. Within two weeks, the majority of patients notice firmer, healthier, and glowing skin. Two to three months after the procedure, patients usually start seeing how the new collagen fibers fill depressed scars and wrinkles and thicken and strengthen thin, delicate skin.
Microneedling can be used on multiple areas, including:
It’s especially effective for those looking to get ahead of signs of aging.
Microneedling carries minimal risk, but you should visit an experienced medical provider who will address your individual skin concerns.
Following your treatment, you may have some mild redness in the skin.
It is important to keep the skin clean and moisturized following your treatment until the little holes can heal to minimize any chance of infection. Allowing the skin to dry out can result in flaking or peeling and extend the healing process.
You should not have microneedling if you have any active acne or pustules. Having microneedling during a breakout would simply spread the bacteria on the skin which could result in additional inflammation and irritation.
Pregnant women should not have microneedling.
Treatment cannot be performed if you have active acne, cold sores, or open lesions. If you are taking prescribed anticoagulants, please consult your prescribing physician prior to treatment.

Once you’ve purchased your microneedling package, you’ll receive a complimentary at-home numbing kit. This can be picked up in-office before your first session or mailed directly to you for $7. We do this to help optimize your time, so instead of waiting in our office for up to an hour, you can apply the numbing cream at home and arrive ready for treatment. This kit includes:
You’ll apply the numbing cream 60 minutes before your appointment and leave it on until you arrive at our office (find the instructions here). Our team will remove the cream and prepare your skin for your treatment.
During your Microneedling session, your practitioner will first remove your numbing cream and cleanse the skin to ensure a clean surface. Your microneedling settings will be customized based on the area being treated. A growth factor serum is applied throughout to help the SkinPen glide smoothly and to enhance absorption, stimulating new collagen and elastin production.
After your treatment, another layer of growth factor serum (or your selected upgrade, such as PRP or PureGF) will be applied.
We’ll provide detailed post-care instructions to help your skin heal. If you purchase a package, it includes four treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart, along with an Alastin Post-Procedure Kit at your first session, complete with enough product to support your skin through the full series.
Each Microneedling session takes approximately 60 – 75 minutes, depending on the treatment area. We recommend a series of 4 treatments, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, for best results.
If you’re looking to boost your results, you can opt to upgrade from the standard serum to traditional PRP or PureGF for even more regenerative benefits.
For enhanced results, you can choose to upgrade your microneedling treatment with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) or PureGF (Pure Growth Factor)—both designed to amplify collagen production and accelerate skin rejuvenation.
Whether you’re looking for a boost from your own PRP or the cutting-edge consistency of Pure GF both options offer advanced support for smoother, healthier skin.
Immediately following treatment your skin will look pink or red, similar to that of a mild sunburn. The skin may also feel warm and tight. This will typically subside in a few hours but can last as long as 24-48 hours. This is normal.
We recommend no strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours after your microneedling treatment. Sweat can further irritate the skin.
The micro-channels close within 24 hours. It is super important to keep the skin extremely hydrated to speed the healing process. Microneedling Aftercare is imperative to achieving the best results.
We advise not wearing make-up for 24-hours following your treatment. Use only gentle cleanser and tepid water to cleanse the skin for 72-hours or 3 days post treatment. Do not use a Clarisonic or powered cleansing brush for at least one week after treatment.
Serum antioxidants will help to soothe and lessen redness and aid in the healing process. These will be provided in your post care kit. Keep the skin well hydrated and wear sunscreen. You can resume wearing make-up 24 hours after treatment. After 3 days you can resume your normal skincare regimen.

We believe consultations are very important when considering any skin treatment. Our consultations give us the opportunity to get to know you and understand exactly what you are looking to achieve with your skin.
At your consultation you will meet with one medical aestheticians who will put together a treatment plan along with product recommendations for you to consider.
They will also let you know the number of microneedling treatments they believe you will need to see the best results.
SkinPen is indicated to treat Fine lines & moderate wrinkles, Acne scarring, Stretch marks, Traumatic scars, Epidermal pigment, Burn wounds, Mild rosacea (vascular only), Hyperpigmentation.
We do not perform microneedling within 2 weeks of a Botox treatment to avoid affecting the distribution beyond the injection site. In order to avoid an inflammatory reaction we will not perform microneedling until 2 weeks after having fillers injected.
No, microneedling does not hurt! To make your treatment as easy and stress free as possible, we schedule you to arrive 1 hour before your actual treatment time. We will apply a prescription strength topical numbing cream to the treatment area/areas which will remain on your face for the next hour. Some of our patients use this time to work, read, watch videos, or even take a nap!
The number of treatments you will need will depend on what your goal is and what area we’re treating (face or body). For wrinkles and facial rejuvenation 4-6 treatments are needed. Acne scars require 6-8 treatments, depending on depth and severity. Décolleté will need 4-8.
The short answer is: you can schedule a microneedling treatment every 4 to 6 weeks.
After the microneedling procedure creates micro wounds to initiate the healing process, your skin needs time to do the healing that will give it that youthful glow.
A couple things are at play here:
Your body can only produce so much collagen at one time, so getting microneedling treatments closer together will not speed up the results. In fact, you may not even notice results from your microneedling treatments until you have completed 3 of them, which mirror the 3-month mark.
The main idea when considering time between treatments is that microneedling does not offer instant results. Instead, it is a transformative treatment that works from the inside out.
It takes time to see the results from microneedling treatments, but those results are absolutely worth it in the end.
Both traditional microneedling and RF microneedling are great options. Microneedling is good for more surface level skin texture smoothing. RF microneedling takes the process a step further with radiofrequency energy that penetrates your skin on a deeper level to tighten and reduce wrinkles.
