What Is Microneedling?
As a highly effective treatment for returning the skin of the face and body to its naturally taut, youthful appearance, microneedling uses tiny needles to stimulate collagen and elastin production. You could benefit from microneedling if you experience light to moderate complexion problems, like a decrease in elasticity or rough skin texture. Make an appointment with our leading experts at Infusion Body & Skincare to learn more about the incredible results of microneedling in Missouri City, TX.
How Does Microneedling Work?
Microneedling uses several fine needles to safely and effectively make micro-injuries in targeted areas of the skin. The micro-injuries in the skin prompt the body’s natural production of elastin and collagen, two nutrients that improve the health and appearance of your skin. Easily combined with other treatments, microneedling can help minimize scars, pores, and stretch marks, as well as make the skin tighter and more cosmetically appealing. You should plan on 4 – 6 follow-up treatments scheduled 4 – 6 weeks apart.

Microneedling FAQs
Does microneedling hurt?
Our caring team is dedicated to making your microneedling treatment as painless as possible. Before your treatment begins, we may apply a topical numbing agent to the skin’s surface to minimize any discomfort you may have during microneedling. After your treatment is complete, it is normal to experience mild irritation, redness, and swelling, but these symptoms typically resolve quickly on their own.
Can I wear makeup immediately after microneedling?
Patients can resume the majority of their normal daily routines, including returning to work or school – immediately after a microneedling appointment. However, patients should wait about 24 – 48 hours after microneedling before reapplying makeup. This will allow the tiny pinpoint punctures to scab over and reduce the risk of infection.
How long is recovery after microneedling?
Most men and women feel fully recovered just 1 – 2 days after microneedling, at which time their tiny scabs will flake away. Over the next several weeks and months, the body’s natural production of collagen will continue to improve, resulting in firmer, smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
