Microneedling has become one of the most sought-after aesthetic treatments for those looking to improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance—without going under the knife. But what exactly is microneedling, and what are the different types available?
In this post, we’ll walk you through the main types of microneedling, their benefits, and how to know which one is right for your skin goals.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin. This stimulates the body’s natural healing response, increasing collagen and elastin production, and enhancing the absorption of skincare products.
Different Types of Microneedling Treatments
1. Traditional Microneedling
This is the classic version using a dermapen or dermaroller. It’s ideal for improving:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars
- Large pores
- Overall skin texture
Best for: People looking for a general skin refresh with minimal downtime.
2. Microneedling with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)
Often referred to as the “vampire facial,” this treatment combines microneedling with your own platelet-rich plasma to boost regeneration and speed up healing.
Benefits:
- Accelerated collagen production
- Brighter, firmer skin
- Reduced scarring and inflammation
Best for: Those looking for enhanced results with natural healing factors.
3. Radiofrequency Microneedling (RF Microneedling)
This treatment combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to tighten the skin and stimulate deeper collagen production.
Benefits:
- Skin tightening
- Lifting effect
- Reduced appearance of deep wrinkles and sagging
Best for: Mature skin or anyone dealing with skin laxity and deeper wrinkles.
4. Microneedling with Exosomes or Growth Factors
These advanced treatments involve applying exosomes or bio-identical growth factors post-microneedling for maximum rejuvenation and cellular repair.
Benefits:
- Faster recovery
- Enhanced glow and hydration
- Boosted skin regeneration
Best for: Clients seeking cutting-edge anti-aging solutions.
