Microneedling is one of our most popular and versatile skin treatments, helping clients achieve smoother, healthier, and more youthful looking skin. Our experienced providers use advanced microneedling techniques to address a wide range of concerns. Many of our clients choose microneedling to reduce the appearance of acne scars, as the treatment stimulates natural collagen production and helps smooth uneven skin texture. Fine lines and wrinkles are also commonly treated, since increased collagen and elastin can firm the skin and minimize visible signs of aging.
If you struggle with enlarged pores, microneedling at Rejuva Medical Spa can help tighten the skin, making pores appear smaller and less noticeable. We also see great results for those dealing with hyperpigmentation, including dark spots, sun damage, or melasma, as microneedling helps promote a more even and radiant skin tone. Additionally, this treatment can improve the look of stretch marks by encouraging skin regeneration in targeted areas.
Whether you want to address specific concerns or simply revitalize your skin’s overall texture and glow, our team will personalize your microneedling treatment to suit your unique needs and goals. If you’re considering microneedling, we invite you to schedule a consultation so we can help you achieve your best skin yet.
Microneedling is one of our most popular and effective treatments for enhancing skin texture, reducing the appearance of scars, and boosting natural collagen production. Our advanced microneedling technology is suitable for most skin types and tones, including both lighter and darker skin. Unlike some laser treatments or chemical peels, microneedling at Rejuva Medical Spa has a lower risk of causing hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation, making it an excellent option for clients with deeper skin tones.
While microneedling is safe for most people, there are a few exceptions. If you have active skin infections, open wounds, or certain skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, or severe acne, we recommend waiting until these issues are resolved before scheduling a treatment. Additionally, clients with a history of keloid scarring or poor wound healing should consult with our experienced medical team prior to treatment, as there is a small risk of abnormal scarring.
Your safety and satisfaction are our top priorities. All microneedling procedures are performed by our skilled and licensed medical professionals, who will carefully assess your skin type and unique concerns. We personalize every treatment—including needle depth and session frequency—to ensure optimal results while minimizing any risks.
To further enhance your results, our team will provide you with detailed instructions for pre- and post-procedure care. This includes recommendations for gentle skincare products and sun protection, which are essential for achieving the best possible outcome for all skin types.
We are proud to offer microneedling—also known as collagen induction therapy—as part of our advanced skin rejuvenation services. Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses fine needles to create micro-channels in the skin, triggering your body’s natural healing response. This process stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins for maintaining firm, youthful, and resilient skin.
For those looking to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, microneedling has become a popular and effective option. Our expertly trained staff will tailor your microneedling treatments to your unique skin type and concerns. Clinical studies demonstrate that a series of microneedling sessions can significantly improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and overall skin texture over time. As collagen production increases, you’ll notice plumper, smoother skin with a more radiant and youthful look.
Microneedling is safe for most skin types and requires minimal downtime. Most clients experience mild redness and swelling, which typically resolve within a few days. For optimal results, our professionals often combine microneedling with medical-grade serums or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to further enhance your outcome.
While microneedling provides excellent results for mild to moderate signs of aging, deeper wrinkles or more significant skin laxity may require additional or alternative treatments. During your personalized consultation at Rejuva Medical Spa, our licensed medical professionals will thoroughly assess your skin and discuss the best options to achieve your aesthetic goals.
We offer advanced microneedling treatments to help our clients achieve smoother, healthier looking skin. Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that uses fine, medical grade needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This process activates your body’s natural healing response and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin—key components for youthful, resilient skin.
Our experienced medical team uses state-of-the-art microneedling technology to safely and effectively target a variety of skin concerns, including acne scars. For clients struggling with atrophic acne scars—such as boxcar, rolling, or ice pick scars—microneedling can help remodel underlying collagen, resulting in a smoother skin texture and more even tone. Most clients notice visible improvements after a series of treatments, typically spaced several weeks apart.
Microneedling isn’t just for acne scars. We also use this technique to address surgical scars, stretch marks, and scars from injuries. While results can vary depending on the scar’s age, depth, and location, as well as individual skin type, many clients see significant improvements in the look and feel of their skin.
Our highly trained professionals ensure that each microneedling session is both safe and comfortable. We thoroughly assess your skin during your initial consultation to determine if microneedling is the best option for your needs. While the treatment is generally well-tolerated, temporary side effects—such as redness, mild swelling, or discomfort—may occur and typically resolve quickly.
Some skin conditions or infections may make microneedling unsuitable for certain individuals. At Rejuva Medical Spa, your safety and satisfaction are our top priorities, so we’ll guide you through every step and provide personalized recommendations for your unique skin concerns.
