Microneedling with hyaluronic acid is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that combines the benefits of microneedling with the intense hydration and skin-plumping effects of hyaluronic acid. Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses tiny, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing process and stimulating collagen and elastin production.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring substance in the skin known for its ability to retain moisture—holding up to 1,000 times its weight in water. When applied during microneedling, HA deeply penetrates the skin, providing intense hydration, improving elasticity, and enhancing overall skin texture and appearance.
This treatment is ideal for:
For optimal results, 3 to 6 sessions are recommended, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. The number of sessions required varies depending on individual skin concerns and goals. Some patients notice a visible glow after just one treatment, but multiple sessions provide more dramatic and long-lasting improvements.
After the treatment, the skin may appear red and slightly swollen, similar to a mild sunburn. This typically subsides within 24 to 72 hours. Light peeling or flaking may occur as the skin regenerates.
Most patients can resume normal activities within 24 hours but should avoid excessive sun exposure, harsh skincare products, and makeup for at least 48 hours post-treatment.
Visible improvements can be seen in as little as one week, with the skin appearing smoother, plumper, and more radiant. However, the full benefits of microneedling—such as increased collagen production—develop over the next 4 to 6 weeks.
Microneedling with hyaluronic acid is generally well tolerated. A topical numbing cream is applied before the procedure to minimize discomfort. Most patients describe the sensation as a mild tingling or light prickling, with minimal to no pain.
This treatment is perfect for individuals looking for a non-invasive, hydrating, and anti-aging solution that provides natural, long-lasting skin improvements without the need for fillers or injectables. With minimal downtime and impressive skin-rejuvenating effects, microneedling with HA is a top choice for those seeking a refreshed, youthful complexion.
