Microneedling, or collagen induction therapy (CIT), is a minimally invasive procedure that produces collagen and elastin. By enhancing these critical skin components, microneedling helps to rejuvenate your skin, restore its texture, and improve its overall appearance.
Microneedling is a cosmetic treatment used at Aesthetic Arts Medical Spa and Wellness in Great Neck, NY, to improve the skin’s texture and tone. Tiny needles induce micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s wound-healing process and stimulating collagen and elastin production. This helps reduce wrinkles, acne scars, and stretch marks. Results are usually within a few days, although full benefits take 4-6 weeks to appear. The results usually last around 4-6 months, and regular treatments are recommended for optimal results.
Our Microneedling facial consist of a facial customized to meet your skin concerns, followed by microneedling with or without fat-derived cell serum.
The best candidates for Microneedling and Natural Growth Factor Injections Microneedling are those who are looking to reduce wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and pigmentation or improve skin texture.
The number of Microneedling sessions with or without Natural Growth Factor Injections varies depending on the skin condition being treated. For optimal results, we typically recommend three to six treatments that are spaced about four to six weeks apart.
Any side effects of microneedling are minimal and temporary. They can include slight redness and swelling, similar to a mild sunburn, which typically subsides within 24-48 hours.
Yes, microneedling with or without Natural Growth Factor Injection is safe for all skin types. However, a consultation is necessary to discuss any potential contraindications.
Post-treatment, we recommend avoiding direct sunlight and using quality sunscreen. Maintaining a good skincare routine with gentle, hydrating products is key.
