Microneedling in Charlotte, NC

What is all the talk about Microneedling?

If you've been bothered by imperfections that fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, or sun spots, microneedling is the ultimate all-in-one solution. Microneedling stimulates collagen production in your skin to help you achieve a noticeably smoother, brighter, and more youthful complexion after just one treatment.

This minimally invasive procedure uses fine needles to create thousands of microscopic channels in the skin, triggering your body's natural healing response. The result is increased collagen and elastin production, which improves skin texture, tone, and firmness while reducing the appearance of scars, pores, and fine lines.

At IZO Aesthetics & Wellness, we offer both traditional microneedling and advanced microneedling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) to maximize your results and provide truly transformative skin rejuvenation.

Am I a good candidate for Microneedling?

We recommend microneedling if you:

  • Hope to improve hyperpigmentation or visible scarring from acne or sun damage

  • Would like to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles

  • Wish to reduce the size of your pore openings

  • Hope to restore thickness and elasticity to your skin

  • Desire fresher, younger-looking skin

  • Want to enhance the absorption and effectiveness of your skincare products

Microneedling is a versatile treatment that can benefit virtually all skin types and tones, making it a safe option for those who may not be candidates for laser treatments. During your consultation, we'll determine if microneedling is right for your specific concerns.

Traditional Microneedling

Our standard microneedling treatment uses the state-of-the-art SkinPen® device, the first FDA-cleared microneedling device on the market. This precision tool creates thousands of controlled micro-injuries to trigger your skin's natural healing process, stimulating new collagen and elastin production.

This treatment is ideal for improving skin texture, reducing fine lines, minimizing pore size, and addressing mild scarring. The procedure is comfortable with the application of a topical numbing cream before treatment.

SkinPen Microneedling with PRP

Enhance your microneedling results with the power of your body's own growth factors. This advanced treatment combines traditional microneedling with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) derived from your own blood. The PRP contains concentrated growth factors that accelerate healing and collagen production.

After microneedling creates channels in your skin, we apply the PRP to penetrate deeply, significantly boosting your results. This premium treatment is ideal for more pronounced concerns like deeper wrinkles, acne scarring, sun damage, and overall skin rejuvenation.

What to Expect?

An expert esthetician will apply a numbing cream to your skin and use the FDA-approved SkinPen® microneedling device to perform the treatment. The device features 14 micro-needles, which create tiny punctures to stimulate collagen and reveal the healthy, dewy complexion you've been longing for.

Consultation & Preparation

Your treatment begins with a thorough consultation to discuss your concerns and goals. We'll cleanse your skin and apply a topical numbing cream to ensure your comfort during the procedure.

PRP Collection (for PRP treatment only)

If you've chosen microneedling with PRP, we'll draw a small amount of blood (similar to a routine blood test) and process it in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelet-rich plasma.

Microneedling Procedure

Using the SkinPen® device, your esthetician will treat the target areas with precise, controlled movements. The procedure typically takes 30-45 minutes depending on the treatment area.

PRP Application (for PRP treatment only)

For PRP treatments, the concentrated platelet-rich plasma is applied directly to your skin immediately after microneedling, allowing the growth factors to penetrate deeply through the microchannels.

Soothing Treatment & Post-Care

We'll apply specialized soothing and healing products to calm your skin. Before you leave, you'll receive detailed aftercare instructions to maximize your results and ensure proper healing.

Is there a Downtime?

Microneedling is a minimally-invasive treatment that comes with a bit of downtime. After your treatment, you may experience redness, mild swelling, and tiny pinpoint patches. Fortunately, these side effects will fade away in just a few days so you can return to your normal routine quickly.

Most patients experience redness similar to a sunburn for 24-48 hours, with some experiencing mild swelling and/or dryness/flaking as the skin heals. The total downtime is typically 2-3 days, with many returning to work the day after treatment using mineral makeup to cover any residual redness.

For microneedling with PRP, the healing process may be accelerated due to the regenerative properties of the platelet-rich plasma, though initial redness might be slightly more pronounced.
