MICRONEEDLING
MICRONEEDLING
Queen Aesthetics is a medical spa located in Houston, Tx where we specialize in a variety of different facials and skin treatments which include microneedling. It is worth noting that microneedling is not just for the face, but it can also treat stretch marks, acne scarring and any other place of the body where skin needs to be repaired. Additionally, it works wonders in encouraging and restoring hair growth.
What is microneedling?
Microneedling, also referred to as skin needling, is a cosmetic procedure specifically for rejuvenating the skin and promoting hair growth. The device used for microneedling contains tiny, hair-thin needles that are placed to the skin to create microscopic wounds. The small wounds in the top layer of the skin jumpstarts the healing process that naturally promotes the production of collagen and elastin to repair the damage. The increase in collagen smooths acne scarring, restores volume, and has the ability to enhance the texture, firmness, and thickness of your skin. The procedure is also effective in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
​
Microneedling treatments have the ability to stimulate the body's natural healing process which results in the production of new skin cells. This procedure is a go-to solution for individuals looking to rejuvenate and restore their skin by utilizing a natural healing process. Other names for microneedling are dermal rolling and collagen induction therapy and the microneedling process is the same for each treatment.
Microneedling Benefits
Several clients at Queen Aesthetics ask, "what are the benefits of microneedling?", and although results vary from patient to patient, you can usually expect the following results:
​
-
It treats scars effectively with the production of collagen and elastin.
-
It minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
-
It reduces visibility of enlarged pores due to the increased collagen production.
-
It fights stretch marks from pregnancy, weight gain and loss, etc.
-
It reduces rosacea irritation by the promotion of collagen in the skin.
-
It is an effective acne treatment and can promote clearer skin.
​
Another benefit to microneedling is how it can help improve the overall effectiveness of topical products for your skin. With the microscopic holes following the procedure, creams and gels can enter deeper into your tissue than a regular application.
Microneedling Cost
The cost of microneedling varies from patient to patient, but the typical cost of microneedling sessions can range from anywhere between $300 and $700 with discounted packages. The majority of patients at Queen Aesthetics require three to six sessions for the best outcomes; however, the number of sessions often depends on the needs and desires of the client.
This is why we recommend an initial consultation to discuss your expectations for your microneedling procedure and we can create a gameplan according to your desires and budget. Contact us today to get started!
