What is
Microneedling?
Micro-needling, is an innovative cosmetic procedure that uses a device covered with tiny, shallow needles to cause ‘micro-injury’ to the skin. This prompts the skin to stimulate collagen production. In this way, it promotes smoother, softer, and more youthful-looking skin after just 3-5 treatments. Chicago Aesthetics Surgery & Med Spa is proud to use Rejuvapen NXT, the most advanced FDA-cleared micro-needling device available.

Who Is a
Good Candidate for Microneedling?
What to Expect
During Your Microneedling Session
Post-Treatment:
What to Expect After Microneedling
Micro-needling is a non-surgical treatment that requires very little downtime. Patients should be able to resume their normal activities right away. There will be some redness and mild sensitivity. These issues should subside within 24 hours. Avoid wearing makeup for 24 hours to avoid irritating the skin and breakouts. There may also be some slight swelling and a bit of peeling.
Three to five treatments are usually required for best results. For more severe scarring and stretch marks, up to six treatments may be needed. The number of treatments can be determined based upon your individual goals and the overall health of your skin. As part of your anti-aging routine, you may opt for one to two procedures a year to help maintain the rejuvenating effects.
