FAQ

When Will I See Results?

Each person’s skin conditions are different and require different levels of treatment. Those with mild wrinkles and fine lines may see improvement after just one treatment while more advanced skin conditions like acne scarring may need more than one session. The number of treatment sessions required will be determined during a consultation with your expert provider.

Does The Treatment Hurt?

While the device is important for the effectiveness of the microneedling treatment, the other factor to note is the depth of the treatment. In order to receive maximum results, deeper treatments that go beyond a 1.0 depth are required, and for the comfort factor of the patient a topical numbing agent will be applied. Unless microneedling is performed at a medical-grade level with a topical numbing agent, results can not be guaranteed. Make sure to inquire about the treatment depth and certification of the provider prior to selecting a facility for microneedling in Raleigh.

What Is Medical Microneedling Vs. Regular Microneedling

The main distinction between the two is the depth at which the device is penetrating the skin. When you see a licensed aesthetics professional, you ensure that you get the right depth of treatment needed for your skin in a safe and sanitary environment.
