Microneedling

Resilient Skin Begins Here

Harness your skin’s natural healing powers to visibly improve texture, tone, and radiance. Microneedling improves skin health and appearance by infusing growth factors and collagen into the skin via tiny channels in the skin created by very thin needles. When your skin heals itself, it appears more even and youthful due to the increase in collagen and other healing properties.

What is microneedling

Strong Skin, Soft Glow

Microneedling (or skin needling), also known as collagen induction therapy, is a cosmetic treatment that utilizes tiny needles to stimulate your natural healing process and enhance the appearance of your skin. The process is among the most popular treatments at Marvel Cosmetic MedSpa, creating gorgeous outcomes without the need for invasive cosmetic surgery.

The power of microneedling lies in its ability to trigger new collagen production. When you’re young, a thick layer of collagen pads your face, giving it youthful contours. As you age, you lose much of that natural padding.

Without the same support, your skin is left to fall and sag into folds, lines, and wrinkles. Any textural irregularities become more apparent, and hollows can develop under your eyes and in the cheeks. Without proper stimulation, your body won’t replace the lost collagen.

Microneedling at a Glance

  • Collagen-Inducing – Boosts natural collagen production
  • Versatile Treatment – Targets scars, dark spots, and signs of aging

  • Safe & Effective – For all skin types and tones

What role does PRP play in microneedling?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a solution created from a small amount of your blood. A blood sample is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to separate the solids from the liquids.

The platelets are isolated and reintroduced to the cleared plasma. Platelets are responsible for blood clotting and contain growth factors that promote wound healing. PRP is a powerful solution that boosts your healing function and also reduces inflammation.

Incorporating PRP into your microneedling treatment helps your body produce new collagen and also reduces swelling and accelerates overall healing. Each channel created by the treatment needles acts as a corridor, allowing the PRP to reach the deeper layers of your skin, where it can be most effective in rejuvenating your skin and reducing fine lines.

How does microneedling work?

A New Chapter for Your Skin

Microneedling utilizes a treatment handpiece equipped with thin, sterile needles. Marvel Cosmetic MedSpa is proud to offer microneedling with the SkinPen system.

The device moves those needles swiftly in and out of your skin, creating thousands of tiny punctures. This controlled injury prompts healing, increasing blood flow and nutrient delivery to promote better skin elasticity, collagen production, and regenerative healing. It’s an excellent alternative or complement to laser treatments and chemical peels, especially for those with darker skin or sensitivity. Your body perceives those punctures as wounds and initiates a repair process. New collagen is produced, which smooths your skin and creates a firmer look and feel.

Your session begins with a topical anesthetic to ensure your comfort. Your Marvel provider then moves a microneedling device across the treated skin area, such as the face, neck, hands, or body, creating microscopic punctures. You may feel mild pressure or minimal discomfort, but downtime is limited. Most redness subsides within a few hours. Many patients pair this treatment with platelet-rich plasma or hyaluronic acid serums to enhance healing and efficacy.

What skin concerns does Microneedling address?

Microneedling treats a broad range of skin conditions, including:

  • Enlarged pores and scarred or surgical skin
  • Uneven texture and tone, including dark spots and sun damage
  • Fine lines and wrinkles, boosting youthful glow
  • Age spots, for a more even complexion
  • Acne and post-acne scarring (e.g., atrophic or depressed scars)
  • Loss of elasticity
  • Stretch marks, especially post-pregnancy or weight fluctuation
  • Hair thinning and loss in targeted areas (with adjunct therapies)

Best of all, microneedling can improve multiple issues during the same treatment, making it a great investment.
