Microneedling
At Laguna Beauty Med Spa, Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to rejuvenate the skin and address various concerns such as acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores, and uneven skin texture.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive skincare treatment designed to improve the appearance of skin by stimulating natural collagen and elastin production. This procedure uses a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin’s surface, triggering the body’s natural healing process. Microneedling is highly effective for treating a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, acne scars, large pores, and uneven skin texture. We are dedicated to providing advanced skincare solutions tailored to your unique needs. Contact us today to schedule your microneedling consultation and unlock the full potential of your skin.

The Microneedling Process
- Consultation
Your journey begins with a detailed consultation to assess your skin’s condition and determine if microneedling is the right treatment for you. Our experts will design a customized treatment plan tailored to your goals. - Preparation
Before the procedure, the skin is cleansed, and a topical numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort during the session. - Microneedling Treatment
Using a microneedling device, fine needles are gently applied to the treatment area, creating micro-injuries that stimulate collagen production. The procedure typically lasts 30-60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. - Post-Treatment Care
After the session, your skin may appear red or feel slightly sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn. This subsides within 1-2 days. Applying gentle, hydrating products and sunscreen is essential to protect the skin during the healing process.
