Microneedling: A Natural Way to Support Skin Health
Microneedling has quickly become one of the most popular treatments in holistic and integrative wellness spaces. This minimally invasive therapy works with your body’s natural healing processes to support healthier + more vibrant skin without harsh chemicals or injectables.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses a device with very fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro‑injuries in the skin. While this may sound intimidating, these tiny channels are superficial and intentional. They signal the body to activate its natural repair response.
As the skin heals, it increases the production of:
Collagen – for firmness and structure
Elastin – for elasticity and resilience
New capillaries – improving blood flow and nutrient delivery
The result is skin that looks smoother, brighter, and more refreshed over time.
Benefits of Microneedling
Microneedling is loved for its versatility and ability to address multiple skin concerns at once, including:
Fine lines and wrinkles
Acne scars and mild scarring
Hyperpigmentation and sun damage
Uneven skin tone or texture
Enlarged pores
Dull or tired‑looking skin
Because microneedling encourages your own collagen production, results tend to look natural and improve gradually. Results vary person to person.
A Holistic Approach to Skin Health
From a holistic perspective, the skin is a reflection of internal health, circulation, and nervous system balance. Microneedling supports:
Increased local circulation
Improved lymphatic drainage
Enhanced absorption of high‑quality, nourishing serums
When paired with supportive lifestyle habits, microneedling can be a powerful tool for skin rejuvenation.
What to Expect From a Session
A typical microneedling session lasts about 45–60 minutes. Most patients describe the sensation as mild when numbing cream is used...some even call it relaxing! After treatment, the skin may appear pink or slightly flushed (similar to a mild sunburn) for 24–48 hours.
Over the following weeks, as collagen remodels, you may notice:
Improved skin texture
Increased glow
Firmer + more even skin
For best results, a series of treatments is often recommended (i.e. 4-6 treatments a month apart).
Is Microneedling Right for You?
Microneedling is safe for most skin types and is a great option for those looking for a non‑toxic, non‑injectable approach to skin rejuvenation. A consultation is the best way to determine if microneedling aligns with your skin goals and overall health.
If you’re ready to support your skin from the inside out, microneedling may be a beautiful next step in your self‑care routine.
