How Microneedling Works

Microneedling rejuvenates skin through your body’s natural wound repair process, which occurs in three distinct phases. First, piercing the skin triggers your immune system to disinfect the micro-wounds, remove debris, increase blood flow, and begin creating new tissue. This inflammation phase sets the stage for healing and regeneration.

Next, the skin rebuilds itself with new granulation cells and temporary collagen (type III) and elastin, which form part of the extracellular matrix. A new network of blood vessels develops to support the healing tissue. Finally, in the remodeling phase, the temporary tissue is replaced with new dermal structures and blood vessels. The type III collagen transforms into stronger type I collagen, which contracts to create a tightening or “shrink wrap” effect, resulting in firmer, smoother, more youthful-looking skin.

Microneedling Treatment Areas

SkinPen’s adjustable needle depth (0.25mm to 2mm) allows for customized treatment on various body areas:

Microneedling: What to Expect

Every microneedling treatment begins with a personalized consultation at Numa Spa. We’ll evaluate your skin concerns, discuss your goals, and determine if SkinPen microneedling is right for you. We’ll also explain the treatment process, review pre-care instructions, and answer any questions.
On treatment day, a topical anesthetic is applied to ensure your comfort. Once the area is numb, your provider uses the SkinPen device to create controlled micro-injuries across the treatment area. The slight vibration of the device is typically all patients feel during the procedure. Most treatments take 30 minutes to one hour, depending on the size and number of areas treated. Most patients report minimal discomfort—many find it less painful than eyebrow waxing. After treatment, a calming serum is applied to soothe the skin and reduce inflammation.
You may notice healthier-looking skin immediately after treatment. However, the most significant results develop as your skin’s natural repair process continues over the following weeks. Most patients experience mild swelling and redness (similar to a mild sunburn) for 2-4 days, though some see their skin return to normal within 24 hours. You can resume your normal makeup routine 2-3 days after treatment. Most clients typically see improvements within 3 weeks, with results continuing to develop for up to 6 months as new collagen fully forms and matures. Results continue to improve with each session.
