What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a modern beauty treatment that uses small needles to poke your skin, also known as collagen induction therapy. This process encourages your skin to create more collagen and new tissue, making your skin smoother, healthier, and more toned. It's often done on the face to treat scars, wrinkles, and large pores.
Think of it like when you get a cut – your body naturally heals by forming new skin cells. With microneedling, the tiny needles create small punctures, prompting your skin to rebuild and generate new cells. This helps improve your skin's appearance and can even be an anti-aging treatment by boosting collagen and elastin production. Collagen and elastin are proteins that keep your skin looking firm and youthful, but their levels decrease as you age.
During microneedling, a device with small needles is used to make tiny insertions into your skin, triggering your body to produce more collagen. This makes your skin look plumper and more youthful.

Microneedling Procedure
Microneedling is a skin treatment that started in 1995 to heal surgical scars. Nowadays, it's used for many skin issues. Although it might seem scary to have lots of tiny needles on your skin, microneedling is painless and easy. The needles only go a little bit into your skin, like small pinpricks. To help you understand better, here are the steps of a microneedling treatment:
Consultation
Just like with many beauty treatments, before you get microneedling, you'll have a first meeting with the doctor to see if it's right for you. The doctor will explain everything, ask about your health, and let you know about any possible issues.
Numbing
First, we start by making the chosen area numb using a special numbing cream. This helps make sure that the treatment doesn't cause you any discomfort.
Cleansing
We clean your skin really well to make sure your face is germ-free and to get rid of any bacteria that could get in through the small holes.
Needling
A derma roller dubai or another tool with tiny needles is rolled on your face. The doctor can change how deep the needles go by looking at how thick your skin is and how much scarring you have.
Serum application
First, a special liquid with moisturizers, vitamin C, minerals, and other good stuff is put on your bare skin. This liquid can get into your skin through tiny holes, making it work better.

Why is Microneedling Treatment Done?
Microneedling is a popular way to make your skin look better. It's a simple and effective treatment that can make your face look younger and fresher. It helps with aging signs and scars. When you do microneedling, it boosts collagen in your skin, making it look radiant and more youthful. The tiny needles also break down scar tissue and make your skin produce new cells, which is good for treating acne, scars, sun damage, dark spots, and other skin problems.
After just one microneedling session, your skin will have a nice glow, and the improvement can last for months. You can do microneedling on different parts of your body, and it can even help with stretch marks.
Who needs Microneedling?
Unlike laser therapy, microneedling is a mechanical procedure that doesn't use heat. This makes it safe for all skin types and tones. It's a good option for those who want to make their skin smoother and treat acne scars without going through painful surgery. If you have small bumps from clogged pores, microneedling can help clear them too.
However, if you're pregnant or have open wounds on your face, microneedling may not be right for you. It's also not recommended if you're undergoing radiation therapy, have recently had radiotherapy, have eczema, keloid scarring, or are on blood thinners. If you have active infections or open wounds, wait for them to heal before trying microneedling. It might not be suitable for frequent alcohol drinkers either, as alcohol can cause dehydration, making the procedure less effective.
Risks & Side Effects of a Microneedling Procedure
After getting microneedling, you might experience some minor side effects, like a bit of irritation where you had the treatment. It's possible to have an allergic reaction to the serum applied to your skin afterward, so tell your skincare person about any allergies you have. Your skin may look a little red for a few days, like a mild sunburn, and you might notice small scabs, but don't worry—they'll disappear on their own in a few days.
Your skin could feel tight, swollen, dry, and sensitive for a few days too, but these effects will go away, and soon you'll see a big improvement in how your skin looks overall.

- This amateur tool is “one size fits all” and works on various skin types and skin colors. But, don’t forget that patients with sore or allergic skin should be careful and should consult the specialists if they are unsure of the effects of this treatment course.
Paying much attention to detail and being delicate is crucial when operating a derma roller around the eye area. Small gauge needles and soft hand motions will not harm this area while still getting the needed outcomes.
Patience is vital during the wait for the outcomes of the derma rolling. Generally, time-related improvement would show up mainly after some weeks or months of treatment, resulting from the interaction of both individual skin statuses as well as treatment compliance.
By selecting the serums containing highly active compounds like hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and peptides, derma rolling in this case would be up to the effective level. This holistic approach provides a deeper cleansing and more potent rejuvenation for the utmost skin well-being.
