What is Plain Microneedling?
Plain microneedling uses a precision device with fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing response, activating collagen and elastin production.
Benefits:
- Improves skin texture and tone.
- Reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
- Minimizes enlarged pores for a refined appearance.
- Supports comprehensive skin rejuvenation.
Ideal For: Individuals seeking effective skin renewal without additional biological additives or enhancements.
Microneedling with Growth Factor Injections
Combines traditional microneedling with the application of growth factors such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from the patient’s blood. Microneedling creates microchannels, allowing growth factors to penetrate deeply and accelerate skin repair.
Benefits:
- Speeds healing and enhances results beyond plain microneedling.
- Increases collagen and elastin synthesis.
- Softens scars and wrinkles for a smoother complexion.
- Boosts overall skin vitality.
Ideal For: Anyone wanting enhanced regenerative benefits from natural growth factors.
Microneedling with RF (Morpheus8™)
Mechanism: Combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen remodeling at deeper levels, improving skin structure and elasticity.
Benefits:
- Provides superior skin tightening and wrinkle reduction.
- Improves firmness, texture, and elasticity.
- Addresses advanced concerns like deeper wrinkles and skin laxity.
Ideal For: People of all ages seeking more comprehensive rejuvenation, particularly for lifting and tightening.
How Plain Microneedling Works
Plain microneedling uses an advanced device with ultrafine, medical-grade needles to form microchannels in the skin’s upper layers. This process activates an inflammatory response, recruiting fibroblasts to stimulate collagen types I and III and elastin fibers. These proteins are critical for the skin’s resilience and firmness. Additionally, microneedling enhances blood flow (angiogenesis), improving nutrient delivery and optimizing the absorption of topical treatments.
Benefits of Plain Microneedling
- Boosts Collagen: Triggers your skin's natural collagen production, effectively rebuilding its foundation for a visibly firmer, more youthful appearance.
- Smooths Imperfections: Reduces the signs of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
- Refines Texture: Improves skin texture and minimizes the appearance of pores.
- Enhances Absorption: Increases the effectiveness of your skincare products by boosting absorption.
- Reduces Pigmentation: Minimizes the appearance of hyperpigmentation and sun damage.
- Revitalizes Skin: Promotes a healthier, more radiant complexion and enhances skin vitality.
- Restores Elasticity: Improves skin elasticity for a smoother, more supple feel.
- Minimizes Stretch Marks: Reduces the visibility of stretch marks by encouraging collagen production.
- Improves Scarring: Helps to soften and reduce the appearance of various types of scars.
- Treats Hair Loss: Can stimulate hair growth in some cases of alopecia.

FAQ's
Plain microneedling leverages the skin’s natural ability to heal by creating micro-injuries with precision-engineered needles. This stimulates collagen and elastin production without synthetic additives, making it a minimally invasive, safe option for most skin types.
A typical plan involves 3-6 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart to align with collagen remodeling cycles and maximize improvements in texture, firmness, and tone.
Avoid plain microneedling if you have active infections, open wounds, or chronic skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis at the treatment site. Those prone to keloid scars or on immunosuppressants should consult with a provider.
Periodic sessions every 4-6 months help sustain benefits by supporting collagen production and addressing new concerns.
Plain microneedling renews surface texture, while RF microneedling uses radiofrequency energy to target deeper layers, improving laxity and delivering firmer, lifted skin.
Micro-injuries activate fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin, while angiogenesis enhances blood flow and nutrient delivery. Over several weeks, these responses improve firmness, elasticity, and overall skin health.
