When it comes to radiant, youthful skin, few treatments have generated as much buzz as microneedling.
This minimally invasive treatment has become a go-to solution for people looking to smooth fine lines, improve texture, and even reduce scars without downtime or harsh chemicals.
At JADA Studios, we believe in treatments that naturally stimulate your body’s ability to heal and restore itself — and microneedling does exactly that.
If you’ve ever wondered whether this trending skincare treatment is right for you, our Microneedling 101 guide will walk you through everything you need to know.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a dermatological procedure that uses very small, sterile needles to create strategic micro-injuries in the skin. While this may sound intimidating, the process is very safe and seamless when done by a trained individual.
These micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing response, stimulating the creation of collagen and elastin, which are important proteins that encourage having firm skin, smooth, and youthful.
Think of it as a workout for your skin. Just as lifting weights creates micro-tears in your muscles that heal stronger, microneedling rejuvenates your skin by kickstarting its natural repair process.
Benefits of Microneedling
One of the reasons microneedling has gained so much popularity is its wide range of benefits. Whether your concern is aging, acne scars, or dullness, this treatment can deliver measurable improvements.
1. Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Microneedling encourages collagen production, softening fine lines and wrinkles. With consistent treatments, many clients notice firmer, smoother skin that looks more youthful.
2. Improves Acne Scars and Stretch Marks
By creating controlled micro injuries on old scar tissue and stimulating new collagen, microneedling is highly effective for reducing acne scars and stretch marks.
3. Enhances Skin Texture and Tone
If your skin feels rough or uneven, microneedling helps refine its texture. It also improves skin tone, giving you a brighter, more even complexion.
4. Minimizes Pore Size
Overactive oil glands and large pores can make skin appear uneven. Microneedling helps reduce pore size, giving your skin a smoother look.
5. Boosts Product Absorption
After microneedling, your skin is more receptive to topical skin products. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid and peptides penetrate deeper, amplifying results.
What to Expect During a Microneedling Session
At JADA Studios, your comfort and results are important to us. Here’s what a typical microneedling session looks like:
Consultation – We begin with a skin assessment to ensure microneedling is right for your goals.
Preparation – A numbing ointment can be applied to reduce discomfort. The sensation typically feels slightly prickly or tingling.
Microneedling Treatment – A specialized device is gently moved across the skin to create controlled micro-injuries.
Post-Treatment Care – We apply soothing serums to accelerate healing and enhance results.
The session typically lasts about 60 minutes, and you can return to your normal routine the next day, making it a convenient option for busy lifestyles.
Is Microneedling Safe?
Yes — when performed by professionals. Microneedling is a safe and FDA-approved treatment for skin rejuvenation. However, it’s crucial to avoid at-home devices that may not be sterile or precise enough.
Professional microneedling ensures consistent results and minimizes risks such as infection or uneven healing.
Aftercare and Recovery
Your skin may appear slightly red, similar to a mild sunburn, for the first 24–48 hours after your session. This is normal and usually subsides quickly. For optimal recovery:
Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 48 hours.
Use a gentle cleanser and hydrating serum to keep skin calm.
Skip makeup for 24 hours to let the skin breathe.
Always wear sunscreen daily to protect your results.
Many clients start seeing improvements within a week, with full results appearing after several weeks as collagen production continues.
How Many Sessions Will You Need?
The number of microneedling sessions depends on your skin goals. For general skin rejuvenation, 3–4 sessions spaced about a month apart are often recommended. For acne scars or deeper wrinkles, more sessions may be needed for best results.
Our specialists at JADA Studios create personalized treatment plans to ensure you achieve the glowing skin you’ve always wanted.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Microneedling?
Microneedling is safe and effective for most skin types and tones. It’s a great option if you want to:
Reduce fine lines and wrinkles
Fade acne scars or stretch marks
Improve uneven skin tone
Minimize enlarged pores
Boost overall skin radiance
However, those with active skin infections, severe eczema, or uncontrolled acne should consult with a professional before beginning treatment.
