Microneedling with the Skin Stylus – Advanced Skin Rejuvenation
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a highly effective, minimally invasive treatment that promotes collagen production by creating controlled micro-injuries to the skin. These tiny punctures stimulate the body’s natural healing process, encouraging the regeneration of fresh, healthy skin cells and improving the overall texture, tone, and appearance of the skin.
At faceIQ medspa, we use the Skin Stylus from HydraFacial, a state-of-the-art microneedling device designed for precision and maximum comfort. Whether you’re looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, or uneven skin tone, microneedling with the Skin Stylus can help you achieve smoother, more youthful skin.

- Advanced Technology: The Skin Stylus is an advanced microneedling device with adjustable needle depths, allowing for customized treatments based on your skin's needs. This precision ensures safe and effective results tailored to each patient.
- Boosts Collagen and Elastin: Microneedling with the Skin Stylus triggers the body’s natural production of collagen and elastin, resulting in firmer, smoother skin over time.

Benefits of Microneedling
- Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: By stimulating collagen production, microneedling helps to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving the skin smoother and more youthful.
- Improves Skin Texture and Tone: Microneedling helps to even out skin tone and texture, making it ideal for those dealing with rough patches, enlarged pores, or pigmentation issues.
- Diminishes Acne Scars: The Skin Stylus is particularly effective at improving the appearance of acne scars by breaking up scar tissue and encouraging new skin growth.
- Minimizes Sun Damage and Hyperpigmentation: Microneedling can improve the appearance of sun-damaged skin and reduce areas of hyperpigmentation.
- Enhances Product Absorption: The tiny channels created by microneedling allow for better penetration of medical-grade skincare products, boosting their effectiveness.
What to Expect During Your Microneedling Treatment
- Consultation: During your consultation at faceIQ medspa, we will assess your skin concerns and determine if microneedling with the Skin Stylus is the right treatment for you.
- Procedure: After cleansing and preparing the skin, a topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure your comfort during the treatment. The Skin Stylus is then gently moved over the treatment area, creating micro-injuries in the skin. The entire procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.
- Post-Treatment Care: You may experience mild redness or sensitivity for a few days after the treatment, similar to a mild sunburn. We will provide you with aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and results.
- Results: Initial improvements in skin texture and tone can often be seen within a week, with more significant improvements in collagen production and skin health developing over the following weeks.
