Controlled micro-injury triggers your skin's natural collagen production, gradually improving texture, tone, and the appearance of scars — including acne scarring.
Microneedling uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering your body's natural wound-healing response — which includes new collagen and elastin production. We use the Opus Plasma system, which combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy for a more robust collagen response than needling alone.
This is a series-based treatment: meaningful improvement in texture, tone, and scarring builds gradually over several sessions and continues for months after your last treatment, as your body continues producing new collagen.
Most patients see meaningful results over a series of 3 to 4 treatments, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart, with continued improvement for months afterward as collagen remodeling continues. We'll set honest expectations about your specific concern and how many sessions it realistically needs.

Explore Skin Resurfacing"Microneedling works because it uses your own biology — new collagen doesn't happen overnight, and neither does real improvement in scarring or texture. I'd rather set a realistic timeline upfront than promise results after one session that only a series can actually deliver."
