Whether you want to tighten your skin to reduce wrinkles or lessen your acne scars for a more even skin tone, micro needling can help you achieve these goals. Micro needling has become a very popular procedure for people of any age. We will tell you everything that you need to know about micro needling, what the procedure is used for, and how much it costs.
What is Micro Needling?
Micro needling is a cosmetic procedure that uses tiny sterilized needles to pierce the skin and cause small wounds. Depending on the patient’s reason for having the procedure done, the needles can be inserted at different depths. The appearance of wounds forces the body to send collagen and elastin to heal that area of the skin, as well as tightening or speeding up the healing process of the skin. Typically, the patient will need multiple sessions of the procedure done to get their desired results.
What is Micro Needling Used For?
- Acne
- Hair Loss
- Large Pores
Wrinkles - Loose Skin
- Scars
- Stretch Marks
- Sun Damage
- Rosacea (causes flushing in the face/visible blood vessels in the face)
- Hyperpigmentation (makes parts of your skin darker than other parts)
- What to Expect from the Procedure
Before the procedure begins, the dermatologist or aesthetician will put a numbing cream on the area to make the experience more comfortable. Once the area is numbed, they’ll begin. The tool moves over the skin smoothly, but may cause a little bleeding, which is normal. Microneedling generally takes 10 to 20 minutes to complete, but can take longer if the area is larger.
How Much Does It Cost?
The cost varies on the areas being treated as well as how many sessions it takes to obtain the preferred results. For micro needling treatment to the face, the average cost per treatment is $550 and for the head/neck the average is $750. But at New Life Medical Centers, micro needling treatments are a program that is subscription based. For $167 per month, you get one session monthly with up to two body sections being treated, depending upon the coverage area. You can choose the body sections you want to treat that month and it can be different every month. Treatments elsewhere could cost you up to $4,500 a month (having multiple treatments a month costing $550 to $750, it adds up!). But at New Life, you would only have to pay $167 per month. New Life Medical Centers prides themselves on putting the patient first without having to drain their wallet to give them quality care.
