Microneedling for the Face
Collagen Stimulation • Texture Refinement • Radiant Skin
What is Facial Microneedling?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive collagen-induction treatment that uses ultra-fine sterile needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. This process stimulates your body’s natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production to improve overall skin quality and tone.
At Lux Dermatology Hair & Skin Institute, microneedling is performed by a board-certified dermatologist using medical-grade precision devices for optimal safety and results.
Benefits of Microneedling
Microneedling is ideal for patients seeking smoother, brighter, more youthful-appearing skin. It can improve:
Fine lines and early wrinkles
Acne scars and textural irregularities
Enlarged pores
Uneven skin tone
Mild skin laxity
Dull or crepey skin
What to Expect
Your treatment begins with topical numbing for comfort. A specialized microneedling device is then passed across the skin to create controlled micro-channels at customized depths based on your skin concerns.
Treatment time: ~45–60 minutes
Downtime: 1–3 days of redness similar to a mild sunburn
Results: Progressive collagen remodeling over 4–12 weeks
For optimal improvement, a series of treatments is recommended.
Microneedling Pricing
Single Treatment: $375
Package of 3 Treatments: $1,000
Packages provide the best value and are recommended for collagen remodeling and scar improvement.
PRP Microneedling Add-On (Face)
Enhance your microneedling results with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), often called the “vampire facial.” PRP is derived from your own blood and is rich in growth factors that accelerate healing and amplify collagen stimulation.
When applied during microneedling, PRP penetrates deeply into the micro-channels to support:
Faster recovery
Increased collagen production
Improved skin texture and tone
Enhanced glow and radiance
Greater improvement in acne scars and fine lines
PRP Add-On to Facial Microneedling: $350
