What to Expect

Before Your Treatment

You’ll meet with us to discuss your skin concerns and goals. We’ll review your skin history and any current products or medications to ensure microneedling is the right fit for you.

During Your Treatment

Your area of treatment will be numbed with a topical numbing cream for approximately 45 minutes, then your skin will be thoroughly cleansed before microneedling is performed using a targeted serum to maximize results. We apply a soothing hydrating mask to finish, calming and hydrating the skin. Most sessions take under an hour.

After Your Treatment

Some redness and mild sensitivity immediately following treatment are normal and typically resolve within 24–48 hours. Skin will continue to improve over the following weeks as collagen production is stimulated. Optimal results build progressively with each session.

Treatment Areas

Each session includes a double cleanse, microneedling with a targeted serum, and a soothing hydrating mask, correction serum, moisturizer, and SPF to finish.

  • Face
  • Face & Neck
  • Face, Neck & Chest
  • Hands

For optimal results, microneedling is recommended in a series of sessions rather than as a standalone treatment. Ask us about our packages at your consultation.

Real Patients, Real Results

Frequently Asked Questions

Is microneedling painful?

Most patients describe a mild prickling or vibrating sensation during treatment. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to maximize your comfort. Most people find the treatment very tolerable.

How many sessions will I need?

We recommend a series of 4-6 sessions for optimal results, spaced 4–6 weeks apart. The exact number depends on your skin concerns and goals, which we’ll discuss at your consultation. Single sessions are not recommended — consistent treatments deliver the best, most lasting results.

How soon will I see results?

You may notice an initial glow within a few days of your first session. More significant improvements in texture, tone, and firmness develop over 4–6 weeks as collagen production increases. Results continue to improve with each session in your series.

Is there downtime after microneedling?

Microneedling requires little to no downtime. Most patients experience redness and mild sensitivity for 24–48 hours following treatment, similar to a mild sunburn. You can typically return to normal activities the following day.

Who is not a good candidate for microneedling?

Microneedling may not be suitable for those with active acne breakouts, open wounds, certain skin conditions, or who are pregnant or nursing. A consultation allows us to assess your skin and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan.

Can microneedling be combined with other treatments?

Yes, microneedling pairs well with other skin health treatments offered at Defy. We’ll help you build a comprehensive skin care plan tailored to your goals at your consultation.

Will microneedling work for my skin type?

Rejuvapen NXT® microneedling is safe and effective for most skin types and tones. Unlike some light-based treatments, it does not target pigment, making it a versatile option for a wide range of patients.
