Microneedling FAQs
Sometimes called collagen induction therapy, microneedling involves tiny, sterile needles puncturing the surface of the skin to instigate collagen and elastin production and regenerate the skin. This can be especially good for pigmented skin, low-level scarring, and age control.
Our micro-puncture lab treats the skin on a superficial level, which means you don't need numbing cream, and you don't need to hide out for 48 hours afterward.
It features the Biologique Recherche Cocktail d'Actifs Regenerants serum, which was created specifically for microneedling. Containing over 56 active ingredients to tighten, tone, and promote healthy skin, this treatment sends a powerhouse of ingredients into the skin via those tiny punctures. Coveted by BR fanatics, this cocktail is only good for 48 hours after opening, and you will go home with the remainder of the bottle to use for the next day.
Once we've completed “needling” the skin, our Collagen Feerie mask and cryosticks will have you literally drenched in hydration as the skin cools back down.
This is a MUCH more comfortable treatment than medical microneedling. It involves more “treatment” care than you may have received, and the Biologique Recherche products involved are incredibly effective. We believe that superficial microneedling is a gentler, more stable treatment and, like most of the French skincare point of view, is about never compromising the health of the skin.
You will definitely be pink from the treatment, so you do have to plan accordingly. Typically, your redness will be gone by the next morning. Once we've done your mask and cryosticks, the redness goes down tremendously, but it can reactivate once you go home and are exposed to environmental stress. We will send you home with something to keep it calm if you need, but nothing is painful at all. You just don't want to make plans the night you have microneedling done.
Microneedling is best done in a series of treatments for optimal results. Like working out, or any consistent plan, you see the best results with continuity. We recommend our package of 4 treatments to start. You will do the treatments 2-3 weeks apart depending on your skin and your schedule. After that, you will integrate microneedling into your yearly skincare plan with either quarterly or biannual treatments.
Microneedling Benefits
Microneedling delivers a multitude of skin benefits that go beyond surface-level improvement. This transformative treatment works at a cellular level, addressing specific skin concerns while enhancing your overall complexion. Here are the standout microneedling benefits you can expect:
Silky Smooth Skin: Refining Texture and Tone
Microneedling helps even out your skin’s texture, smoothing rough patches and minimizing the appearance of pores. By encouraging cellular turnover and collagen production, it restores a refined, luminous look to your skin. With each session, your skin feels softer, looks brighter, and takes on a silky, polished finish.
Diminished Marks: Fading Pigmentation and Scars
Say goodbye to stubborn pigmentation and minor scars. Microneedling effectively reduces the appearance of discoloration, sun damage, and acne scars by promoting the skin’s natural healing process. Over time, you’ll notice a more even and balanced complexion that radiates health.
Lifted and Firm: Boosting Collagen and Elasticity
Microneedling enhances collagen and elastin production, two key components for youthful, resilient skin. The treatment targets early signs of aging like fine lines and sagging, restoring plumpness and firmness for a naturally lifted appearance. It’s a non-surgical way to maintain youthful skin that defies time.
Hydrated Glow: Revitalize Your Complexion
One of microneedling’s standout benefits is its ability to boost hydration. Our infusion process delivers nutrient-rich serums deep into the skin, replenishing moisture and enhancing the skin’s natural barrier. Paired with the Collagen Feerie mask and cryosticks, your skin will feel intensely hydrated and look undeniably radiant.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a cutting-edge skincare treatment that stimulates your skin's natural repair processes. During the procedure, a device with tiny, sterile needles creates micro-punctures in the outer layer of the skin. These micro-punctures trigger the production of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins responsible for maintaining skin’s firmness, elasticity, and smooth texture.
This minimally invasive treatment is perfect for addressing various skin concerns, including uneven tone, pigmentation, minor scarring, and early signs of aging. By encouraging your skin’s renewal process, microneedling not only enhances its appearance but also strengthens its resilience over time.
At Skin&Tonic, our microneedling practice offers an experience that is far more comfortable than traditional medical microneedling treatments. It includes heightened "treatment" care featuring the renowned Biologique Recherche products, known for their profound effectiveness. Our method focuses on a superficial, gentler approach that aligns with the quintessential French skincare philosophy of never compromising skin health. Curious about what is microneedling and its transformative effects? We’ve tailored every detail to deliver exceptional microneedling benefits while keeping your skin’s health a top priority.
What to Expect: Microneedling Before and After
At Skin&Tonic, your microneedling journey is designed to be seamless, comfortable, and tailored to your skin’s needs. Here's what you can expect at every step of the process:
Step 1: Cleansing and Preparation
We begin by thoroughly cleansing your skin to remove impurities and ensure a clean surface for treatment. This step allows the microneedling device to work effectively without any barriers. Because our technique is gentle and superficial, there’s no need for numbing cream or pre-treatment discomfort.
Step 2: Microneedling and Serum Infusion
Next, our expert aestheticians use a state-of-the-art microneedling device to create controlled micro-punctures on the surface of your skin. During this process, we infuse Biologique Recherche’s Cocktail d'Actifs Regenerants serum—a powerful blend of over 56 active ingredients designed to tighten, tone, and rejuvenate your skin. This infusion maximizes the microneedling benefits by delivering essential nutrients directly where your skin needs them most.
Step 3: Cooling and Hydration
Once the microneedling is complete, your skin is treated with our soothing Collagen Feerie mask and cryosticks. These steps cool and calm your skin, reducing redness while providing intense hydration. This post-treatment care leaves you feeling refreshed and ensures your skin is calm and ready to heal.
Microneedling Aftercare
Proper microneedling aftercare is essential to maximizing the benefits of your microneedling treatment and ensuring your skin heals beautifully. Immediately following your session, your skin may appear pink or slightly flushed, resembling a mild sunburn. This is completely normal and typically subsides within 24 hours as your skin begins to recover and regenerate.
To extend the benefits of your treatment, we provide you with the remainder of the Biologique Recherche Cocktail d'Actifs Regenerants serum used during your session. Applying it at home allows your skin to continue receiving essential nutrients, promoting optimal results.
In the first few days after microneedling, it’s important to take extra care of your skin by following these guidelines:
- Avoid direct sun exposure: Your skin will be more sensitive to UV rays during recovery. Stay out of the sun as much as possible, and if you must go outside, apply a gentle, mineral-based sunscreen.
- Skip harsh skincare products: Do not use other exfoliants, retinols, or acids for at least 3–5 days after your session, you can resume your lotion p-50 within 1-2 days.
- Keep your skin hydrated: Use a gentle moisturizer to soothe your skin and combat any tightness or dryness you may experience. Hydration is a critical component of effective microneedling aftercare. We recommend using Crème Masque Vernix VG at home post-treatment.
- Refrain from touching or picking at your skin: Allow the micro-punctures to heal naturally without interference to avoid irritation or infection.
- Avoid heavy makeup: It’s best to let your skin breathe for at least 24 hours after the treatment.
- Follow your aesthetician’s instructions: Your Skin&Tonic professional will provide personalized recommendations based on your skin type and concerns.
By following these microneedling aftercare steps, you’ll achieve the best microneedling before and after results and support your skin’s long-term health and beauty.
