What Is Microneedling?
Sometimes, even the best skin care routines need a little extra help, and microneedling is a proven treatment that can rejuvenate and revitalize the skin for a smoother, more youthful appearance. This simple, safe procedure can fit seamlessly into your skin care routine, helping to boost your skin's health and appearance. Microneedling, also called collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment at Palm Beach Dermatology that uses fine needles to create tiny punctures, or micro-injuries, on the skin's surface. These micro-injuries trigger the body's natural healing process to support the skin's structure and keep it looking youthful, firm, and healthy. The process also helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, stretch marks, enlarged pores, and more. Schedule a consultation at our Boca Raton, FL practice to learn more about the results of microneedling and ways to customize the treatment for your needs and goals.
How Does Microneedling Work?
Microneedling is a straightforward yet effective process. The treatment begins with a thorough cleansing of the skin. A numbing cream can be applied to ensure minimal discomfort, although most people find the treatment to be tolerable. A specialized handpiece containing fine needles is used to create small micro-injuries on the skin's surface. These micro-injuries stimulate the production of elastin and collagen without causing any significant damage. The entire session typically takes 30 – 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated. Some people combine microneedling with other treatments, like PRP or vitamin serums, to further boost the effects.
The results of microneedling can be long-lasting, but like any treatment, they aren't permanent. As your skin continues to age, you may notice the return of certain concerns, like fine lines or sun damage. Regular maintenance treatments can help keep your skin looking its best. A post-treatment skin care routine also plays a big role in the longevity of your results. Using high-quality skin care products, including hyaluronic acid and collagen-boosting serums, can help extend and enhance the benefits of your microneedling treatments.
What Are the Benefits of Microneedling?
Microneedling offers a range of benefits, making it a popular choice for many who want to improve their skin. By promoting the natural production of collagen and elastin, microneedling can address many skin concerns, leave your skin looking fresh and rejuvenated, and present these benefits:
- Reduces fine lines and wrinkles: By stimulating collagen production, microneedling helps smooth out fine lines and wrinkles.
- Minimizes enlarged pores: The treatment tightens the skin, reducing the appearance of large pores.
- Fades sun damage and pigmentation: Microneedling can help lighten areas of sun damage and uneven pigmentation.
- Reduces stretch marks and scarring: It's effective in treating a range of scars, including acne scars and stretch marks.
- Boosts skin elasticity: By increasing the natural production of collagen and elastin, microneedling helps improve the skin's elasticity.
- Enhances product absorption: After the treatment, your skin is more receptive to skin care products, allowing serums and moisturizers to penetrate deeper.
- Promotes long-term skin health: With regular treatments, microneedling supports the ongoing health and appearance of your skin.

Great doctor makes you feel super at ease and very thorough! So glad to have found this office ! Dr Adam is the best !
I have had two visits with Dr. Aldahan and he was nothing but amazing! He’s very thorough and takes his time during the visits. I had a procedure and he was super gentle . A great experience over all with the office staff as well.
Dr. Aldahan is very capable of taking care of my skin problems even after many years of treatment by others. This was my third visit with Dr. Aldahan and I have a two-month checkup scheduled.
The best, smart, nice knowledgeable, professional, up to date and hands on.
