What is microneedling?
Microneedling is a minimally-invasive, non-surgical treatment that improves the tone and texture of your skin by creating microchannels in the surface layers of the skin that triggers the body’s natural healing response and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. This skin rejuvenation treatment can be used to improve the appearance of acne scars, soften fine lines, reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, and improve the health and quality of your skin.
What is microsurfacing?
Microsurfacing is a unique combination of microneedling and PRP that utilizes the techniques taught by Dr. Dayan to maximize the effects of collagen induction therapy. It works on most skin conditions and all colors of the Fitzpatrick scale. Patients familiar with microneedling will be pleasantly surprised with the upgraded benefits of microsurfacing.
Benefits of Microneedling

How many treatments will I need?
A single microneedling treatment session can be used as part of your regular skincare routine to improve the health of your skin and improve the tone and texture of skin. Most patients see the most improvement in the treated area with a series of three to six microneedling treatment sessions. Depending on your skin concerns and goals of treatment, you may require additional treatment sessions in order to achieve your desired results.
Common treatment areas include:
- Face
- Neck
- Arms
- Décolleté
- Hands
- Legs
When will I see results?
The results of microneedling treatments are gradual and improve as the skin improves from the inside out. As the new collagen forms and develops, patients will begin to see a noticeable improvement in the texture, tone, and overall quality of their skin that will continue for up to six months after your treatment session. Some patients may require multiple treatment sessions in order to achieve their aesthetic goals. Results may vary.
Are there any side effects?
Some patients may experience mild tenderness, redness, and/or swelling, much like a mild sunburn, in the treatment area. These side effects are temporary and typically resolve on their own within two to four days of your micro-needling treatment session.
