Stimulate Collagen for Smoother Skin

Microneedling works by triggering the body’s natural healing response. Using a specialized device equipped with ultra-fine needles, controlled micro-injuries are created on the skin’s surface. These micro-injuries encourage collagen and elastin production, proteins essential for youthful, resilient skin. At Serotonin Centers in Paramus, treatments are personalized to your skin’s needs, helping to refine texture, reduce visible imperfections, and promote long-term skin rejuvenation.

How Microneedling Works

The device creates tiny punctures in the skin, which activate the body’s wound-healing response. This process stimulates collagen and elastin production while encouraging cellular turnover. Microneedling also enhances absorption of serums and topical treatments, making it a versatile option for boosting skin health and appearance.

Boost Results with PRP

For enhanced outcomes, microneedling can be combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP). PRP is derived from a small blood sample and is packed with natural growth factors that support tissue repair and regeneration. When applied to freshly microneedled skin, PRP penetrates deeply into the micro-channels, amplifying collagen synthesis and accelerating recovery. This combination may improve skin tone, texture, and overall vibrancy with minimal downtime.

Microneedling FAQs

What to Expect During Treatment?

Your session begins with a gentle cleansing of the skin followed by a topical numbing cream for comfort. A handheld microneedling device is then passed across the treatment area, creating controlled micro-injuries. Most clients describe the sensation as a mild vibration or tingling. Afterward, a soothing serum, or PRP, if included, is applied to encourage healing. The session typically lasts 30–60 minutes.

How Many Sessions Are Needed?

The number of sessions varies by skin concerns and goals. Some clients see results after just one treatment, while a series of 3–6 sessions spaced about 4–6 weeks apart is often recommended for optimal improvements. For deeper scars or advanced aging, additional treatments may be advised.

Preparing for Microneedling

To get the best results, it’s recommended to avoid retinoids, exfoliating acids, and direct sun exposure for several days before your appointment. Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin, stay hydrated, and avoid blood-thinning medications unless prescribed by your doctor, as these may increase the likelihood of bruising.

Downtime and Recovery

Recovery is generally minimal. Redness and mild swelling, similar to a light sunburn, may occur for 24–48 hours. The skin may also feel slightly tight or dry as it heals. Most people return to regular activities the next day but should avoid makeup, strenuous exercise, and prolonged sun exposure for at least 24 hours.

When to Expect Results

TSubtle improvements in texture and brightness may appear within a few days. More noticeable results, such as smoother skin and reduced scars or fine lines, usually develop within 4–6 weeks as new collagen forms. With a series of treatments, results can become more significant and long-lasting.
