06 Jun Boost Collagen and Reveal Radiant Skin Naturally
Microneedling has quickly become one of the most sought-after skin treatments—and for good reason. At RefinedMD, this minimally invasive procedure is used to treat everything from fine lines and acne scars to dullness and enlarged pores. It works by stimulating the skin’s natural healing process, leading to a smoother, firmer, and more even complexion over time.
Sometimes called collagen induction therapy, microneedling uses a specialized device with ultra-fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the top layer of the skin. These tiny channels signal the body to produce new collagen and elastin, while also allowing topical products to penetrate more deeply for better results. The outcome is healthier, revitalized skin that looks refreshed from the inside out.
Precision-Based Skin Remodeling
At RefinedMD, we use medical-grade microneedling devices designed for maximum precision and comfort. The needles are adjusted to reach various depths depending on the area being treated and your specific skin concerns. By creating thousands of microscopic punctures, the skin’s repair process is triggered without causing lasting damage.
This natural response ramps up collagen and elastin production, which are essential for maintaining firmness, elasticity, and skin density. Over the following weeks, you’ll notice visible improvements in skin texture, tone, and clarity. Whether you’re looking to soften fine lines, fade acne scars, or reduce sun damage, microneedling offers a scientifically backed way to rejuvenate your complexion.
What to Expect During Treatment
Microneedling treatments at RefinedMD are relatively quick, typically taking about 30 to 45 minutes. A topical numbing cream is applied before your session to minimize discomfort, making the procedure very tolerable for most patients. The sensation is often compared to light sandpaper or a mild vibration on the skin.
After treatment, you may experience some redness, tightness, and mild swelling—similar to a sunburn—for 24 to 72 hours. This is completely normal and typically resolves quickly. Many patients choose microneedling because it strikes the perfect balance between effectiveness and minimal downtime. Most people return to normal activities the next day with only slight redness as evidence of their treatment.
A Versatile Solution for Many Skin Concerns
Microneedling is incredibly versatile and can be used to treat a wide range of skin conditions. It’s particularly effective for reducing acne scars, minimizing fine lines and wrinkles, and improving overall skin texture. It can also help tighten pores, reduce hyperpigmentation, and restore a youthful glow to tired or aging skin.
Because microneedling works with your body’s natural healing process, the results are gradual and build over time. Most patients begin to see noticeable improvements after one to two sessions, with optimal results achieved after a series of three to six treatments. At RefinedMD, we tailor every microneedling plan to your skin’s condition, goals, and response rate.
Amplify Benefits with Custom Add-Ons
One of the best things about microneedling is that it opens the skin for deeper penetration of active ingredients. That’s why we often pair microneedling with medical-grade serums, such as hyaluronic acid, peptides, or growth factors, which can be infused into the skin during treatment for enhanced hydration, healing, and rejuvenation.
For patients looking for next-level results, we also offer microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Sometimes referred to as the “vampire facial,” this technique uses your own blood-derived growth factors to accelerate healing and amplify collagen production. It’s a powerful way to maximize the benefits of microneedling and achieve even more dramatic improvements in skin texture and tone.
Who’s a Good Candidate for Microneedling?
Microneedling is safe for all skin tones and types, which makes it an inclusive and reliable treatment option for a wide range of patients. It’s especially helpful for people who want to avoid more aggressive procedures or for those who aren’t ready for injectables or laser treatments. It’s also safe for use on delicate areas like the neck, décolletage, and even around the eyes.
Ideal candidates are individuals who are in generally good health and looking to improve surface-level concerns without extended recovery time. During your consultation at RefinedMD, we’ll assess your skin and help determine whether microneedling is right for you. Our experienced team customizes the treatment depth and serum pairings to give you the best possible outcome.
Combining Microneedling with Other Services
Microneedling can be part of a larger skin care strategy that includes treatments like BBL (BroadBand Light), DiamondGlow, or chemical peels. These combination approaches allow us to target multiple layers of the skin and address more than one issue at a time. Whether you want to brighten pigmentation, lift lax skin, or smooth surface texture, microneedling integrates beautifully into a comprehensive plan.
At RefinedMD, we take a holistic view of skin care. That means we’ll work with you to determine the right mix of treatments, home care, and maintenance appointments to keep your skin healthy and radiant year-round. Our goal is to give you consistent, visible improvement without overwhelming your schedule or your skin.
