What is Microneedling?
Microneedling also known as transcutaneous collagen induction therapy is a well-renowned cosmetic treatment used to renew and correct the skin through the stimulation of its healing capacity. This is commonly known as collagen induction therapy, which is done using a special machine that has ultra-fine sterile needles technology. Such needles produce thousands of managed micro-wounds (minuscule scratches) on the outside part of the skin.
Microneedling is also well-known as one of the methods of skin enhancement and is used to help with several skin issues, including acne scars, wrinkles, large pores, uneven skin texture, and even alopecia.
How Does Microneedling Work?
Microneedling operates using the technique of controlled injury and the repair of the skin. This is what occurs step by step:
- Formation of Micro-Injuries: The micro-needles pierce through the outermost layer of the skin, making controlled, small puncture wounds. These are shallow and cannot do long-term harm.
- Stimulation of Healing Response: The skin instantly identifies these micro-injuries and initiates messages to activate the body’s wound-healing process. It comes with enhanced blood circulation and the discharge of growth factors.
- Collagen and Elastin Synthesis: New collagen and the elastin fibers are stimulated in fibrosis (skin cells).
- More Serum Absorption: Microneedling opens micro-channels that maximize the penetration of topical serums (hyaluronic acid or PRP, or growth factors) into the involved areas to stimulate their absorption.
Types of Microneedling
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Traditional Microneedling | The traditional microneedling is the most popular collagen induction therapy. It uses a sterile needle device with fine and sterile needles to puncture micro injuries into the skin. This promotes naturally occurring collagen and elastin and firms the skin. It works best with shallow scars, enlarged pores and lines. |
| Microneedling Radiofrequency (RF) | Here, microneedling is performed together with radiofrequency energy, which penetrates through the deep skin layers (the dermis). This strengthens more collagen growth and supports skin firmness. It is a perfect choice as far as loose skin, wrinkles, and general aging problems are concerned. The results are far more dramatic than those of conventional microneedling. |
| Hair Restoration Microneedling | This is a type of microneedling that focuses on the scalp to promote hair follicles. It increases the blood flow in the scalp and the uptake of hair growth topicals, serums, or PRP. It proves to be helpful especially in people undergoing early episodes of hair thinning or androgenic alopecia. It awakens dead hair follicles and increases uptake of growth serums/PRP. |
| BB Glow Microneedling | BB Glow offers a synthesis of microneedling and semi-permanent tinted textures to give the skin an even-hued plastique. It leaves skin with a smooth, natural-looking, and firmer appearance that looks makeup-finished, and targets uneven tone, dullness, and minor pigmentation. Although they are not permanent, they can provide long-lasting results after a few sessions, depending on several weeks. |
| Growth Factors Microneedling | This method uses the laboratory-isolated growth factors that are an imitation of the natural healing proteins in the body. In combination with microneedling, it penetrates more deeply and makes tissues regenerate faster, as well as being used during advanced anti-aging and scar recovery. It enhances cell repair and rejuvenation. |
| Microneedling + PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) | This therapy is also called Vampire Facial as a combination of microneedling and PRP prepared according to the patient’s blood. The growth factors in PRP boost the healing rate, so overall results are much improved. It is particularly appropriate for scars and resistant pigment. |
| Medical-Grade Serums Microneedling | In this process, there will be the application of high-potency serums (serums such as hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, or peptides) during microneedling. The needles form micro-channels that increase absorption to achieve maximum penetration and effectiveness. The technique is outstanding as a hydrating and skin-restoring technique. |
What Are The Areas and Conditions Treated With Microneedling?
Hair Loss: Microneedling on the scalp enhances blood flow and stimulates hair follicles, promoting hair regrowth. It’s often paired with topical treatments like minoxidil to improve results for androgenetic alopecia or thinning hair, offering a non-invasive solution.
Sunburn: Microneedling aids in repairing sun-damaged skin by boosting collagen and elastin production. It helps restore skin texture and tone affected by UV exposure, reducing redness and promoting even skin regeneration over multiple sessions.
Acne Scars: By creating micro-injuries, microneedling triggers skin repair, smoothing out pitted or raised acne scars. It’s effective for atrophic scars, improving texture and appearance with minimal downtime compared to laser treatments.
Big Pores: Microneedling tightens skin by stimulating collagen, reducing the appearance of enlarged pores. It enhances skin texture, making it smoother and more refined, especially for oily or acne-prone skin, with results improving over time.
Hyperpigmentation: Microneedling helps fade dark spots and uneven skin tone by promoting cell turnover. It’s effective for melasma or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, often combined with serums to enhance brightening effects safely.
Wrinkles & Fine Lines: The treatment boosts collagen and elastin, smoothing wrinkles and fine lines. It’s ideal for aging skin, improving firmness and elasticity, particularly on the face, with visible results after a series of sessions.
Stretch Marks: Microneedling reduces the appearance of stretch marks by stimulating collagen in affected areas. It improves skin texture and color, making marks less noticeable, especially on the stomach and thighs, with consistent treatments.
Treatment Areas
Stomach and Thighs (Stretch Marks): Microneedling targets stretch marks on the stomach and thighs, common after pregnancy or weight changes. It promotes collagen remodeling, reducing the visibility of marks and improving skin texture over multiple sessions.
Hands: Microneedling rejuvenates hands by addressing age spots, wrinkles, and thin skin. It enhances collagen production, improving skin thickness and texture, making hands appear smoother and more youthful with minimal discomfort.
Scalp (Hair Loss): Microneedling on the scalp stimulates dormant hair follicles and improves blood circulation. Often used with growth serums, it supports hair regrowth for thinning areas, offering a non-surgical option for hair restoration.
Face (Wrinkles, Pigmentation, Scars): The face is a primary area for microneedling, targeting wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. It enhances skin texture, reduces fine lines, and evens tone, providing a youthful glow with minimal recovery time.
Neck & Décolletage: Microneedling treats crepey skin, wrinkles, and sun damage on the neck and décolletage. It firms and smooths these delicate areas, improving elasticity and reducing pigmentation for a more even, youthful appearance.

A Step-by-Step Guide to Your Microneedling Experience
Here is a step-by-step description of the process:
Comprehensive Skin Assessment Before Treatment
Your process starts with having a one-on-one consultation with our dermatologist. We evaluate your skin status, history, and treatment objectives. The physician may prescribe traditional or PRP microneedling or RF, depending on your needs.
Preparing for the Session
On the day of treatment, your skin is cleaned thoroughly in order to wipe away the makeup, dirt, as well as oils. The procedure is performed by using a numbing cream to reduce the pain experienced during the process. This makes the process virtually pain-free.
The Microneedling Procedure
With the help of a professional microneedling device like Dermapen or MNRF, the dermatologist moves the instrument along the intended area with a light touch. Depending on the skin concern and area of treatment, the speed and depth of the needle is varied. They can be used in conjunction with growth factors, serums, or PRP to improve the outcome. Individualized needle penetration about each issue (scars, wrinkles, pores, baldness) and serums can be infused with hydration, healing, and or anti-aging effects.
Follow-Up Instructions
A serum or mask is used to calm the skin after treatment. No more than 24 to 48 hours later, patients may experience mild redness or sensitivity as seen due to sunburn. The physician will lay out an aftercare plan to maximize healing and end results.

Microneedling Device Options At Enfield Royal Clinic
The most popular microneedling devices are the following:
Dermaroller
A portable roller in the form of a roller covered with fine needles, rolled over the skin to produce micro-injury. Dermarollers constitute a quick and straightforward procedure for improving minor issues of the skin, such as pallor skin or pigmentation on a superficial level.
Derma Stamp
This machine works on the stamping process, not the rolling process. It is perfect for treating small areas or particular locations like acne scars and fine wrinkles around your eyes and mouth. It is ideal to target precision in a small area of treatment. Also, it lessens the chance of skin tearing.
Dermapen 4
A motorized modem microneedling pen that delivers fast, vertical needle punctures and penetration depth adjustments. It makes the results more consistent, less painful. It can vary in depth (up to 2.5mm) and is highly beneficial to address numerous problems in the skin (scars, wrinkles, pigmentation).
Dermafrac
It is a distinctive system that integrates microneedling with the simultaneous platform of applying tailored serums. Activities such as peptides, hyaluronic acid, or vitamin C are placed in the deeper layers, since sound acts as a hole in the skin.
MNRF Radiofrequency Fractional Microneedling
This high-tech treatment tool is a microneedling system with radiofrequency (RF) energy. The needles form micro-channels, whereas the RF energy heats the deeper skin layers, causing their tightening and activating deeper-layer collagen. It is suitable for loose, baggy skin and lessens deep lines and pimple scars
Light-emitting Microneedling Devices
This device incorporates microneedling and the use of LED lights. The microneedles excite collagen production, and the light wavelengths reduce inflammation and destroy bacteria (acne).
It has a two-fold action of skin repairing and healing. This is very suitable for pimple-prone, sensitive skin.
Microneedling : Skin-Based Needle Lengths
Microneedling machines have adjustable needle length to precisely penetrate the skin. The best option is based on the area of application and the condition that is being treated in order to select it. Here are some needle lengths and their uses:
0.25mm-0.5mm (Surface Level Treatment)
- Increases product uptake (serums, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C)
- Ideal to address superficial pigmentation
- Very little downtime, perfect to give skin a refresh
0.5mm-1.0mm (Light Rejuvenation)
- Pre-empts fine wrinkles and fine lines.
- Eliminates minor acne scars, large pores.
- Activates surface collagen.
- Applied to anti-aging on the face and neck.
1.0mm-1.5mm (Moderate Concerns)
- Works best on mild acne scarring, severe wrinkles, and stretch marks
- Tightens facial, and hand skin.
- Stimulates enhanced collagen renovation.
- Recovery is a little bit longer, but with effective outcomes
1.5mm-2.5mm (Advanced Skin Concerns)
- It is recommended in case of hollow scars, distinct wrinkles, and bad stretch marks.
- It is frequently applied to the body (abdomen, thighs, arms).
- Activates the deepest skin to produce optimum collagen.
- Demands professional knowledge and skills
Microneedling vs. Dermarolling: What’s the Difference?

Device Type | Automated pen or RF device | Manual roller |
Depth Control | Adjustable | Fixed |
Safety Level | High (sterile, clinical) | Moderate |
Effectiveness | Professional results | Limited results |
Downtime | Minimal | Varies |
Best Skincare Practices After Microneedling Treatment
Appropriate aftercare will help maximize the results and also protect safety. Another under-recognized benefit of microneedling is the increased product absorption of the skin. This is great news since skincare is always the best next step to treatment.
| Dos | Don’ts |
|---|---|
| Use SPF 30+ every day to protect treated skin from UV damage and prevent hyperpigmentation. | No makeup for 24 hours post-treatment to avoid clogging micro-channels and reduce irritation risk. |
| Drink plenty of fluids and avoid vigorous exercise for 24 hours to support skin healing and hydration. | Avoid retinoids, AHAs, BHAs, and exfoliants for 5-7 days prior to prevent skin sensitivity and irritation. |
| Use a gentle cleanser and simple skincare routine to soothe skin and promote recovery without irritation. | Do not expose skin to direct sunlight or hot saunas for one week to prevent inflammation and damage. |
| Apply hyaluronic acid serums and unscented moisturizers to enhance hydration and support skin barrier repair. | Avoid touching or scratching treated skin to prevent infection and ensure proper healing of micro-channels. |
FAQS
Yes, professional microneedling pens are safe, when done by a trained dermatologist. Homemade varieties may be dangerous when not sterilized properly.
The safest is to have at least 2 weeks' interval between Botox injections and microneedling. This enables the Botox to settle down so that it is not interrupted by the procedure.
Microneedling can help adults of virtually any age. It can be a preventative treatment if you are in your mid-20s and 30s, because it reduces aging signs.
The vast majority will feel and look normal in 24-72 hours with just a small amount of redness as a sunburn. Deeper treatments might last up to 4-5 days, although downtime is also close to nothing in comparison with other procedures.
Generation pinpoint bleeding may happen during professional microneedling, particularly when using deeper needle settings. This is common, controlled, and a part of the collagen activation process.
There are at-home formulas of dermarollers available, but they are less effective and can lead to infection or even skin damage when applied improperly. Microneedling is done in the safety and precision of a clinic, and premium results are seen.
This depends on what you want to achieve in your skin. Scars, wrinkles, and texture should be addressed by microneedling, whereas pigmentation, dullness, and surface problems should be solved through chemical peels. A combination of both is beneficial to many patients and may be based on the recommendation of a dermatologist.
Microneedling treatment sessions usually take about 30-60 minutes and can vary based on the area being treated and further add-ons, such as the use of PRP or serums as add-ons. It takes a short period, and the follow-up downtime is minimal.
Unfortunately, no. Botox does not offer permanent solutions. You might need to schedule follow-up sessions after every 3 or 4 weeks for a touch-up to maintain your results.
Absolutely! Our patients usually combine a Botox injection with other dermal fillers for a full-face rejuvenation procedure. This enhances the effects of both the fillers used.
