7 Benefits of Microneedling

  • October 2, 2018
  • Autumn
  • Seasons Salon

What is microneedling?

Microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) involves using fine needles to create hundreds of tiny, invisible puncture wounds in the top layer of skin. Sound appealing? Not so much. But this minimally invasive treatment—whether it’s done in-office by a trained aesthetician, dermatologist, or plastic surgeon, or at home using a dermaroller (a small, handheld paint roller coated in tiny needles)—is virtually painless and incredibly effective. “The micro-injuries you create stimulates the body’s natural wound healing processes, resulting in cell turnover and increased collagen and elastin production, therefore reversing as well as preventing signs of aging,” says board certified dermatologist and RealSelf contributor Sejal Shah, MD. (It works the same way lasers do, only you’re injuring the skin mechanically instead of using heat or light.) Believe it or not, microneedling has become hugely popular among skincare fanatics—Vogue is calling it the next big thing in anti-aging. (Check out these game-changing anti-aging ingredients taking the skincare world by storm.)

Microneedling reduces fine and deep wrinkles

The primary appeal of microneedling is its ability to stimulate growth of collagen and elastin, which is the key to new, youthful-looking skin. Some doctors would even go so far as to say that the procedure is the most powerful way to stop aging in its tracks and prevent new fine lines and wrinkles from forming. With its ability to trigger the generation of new skin cells, just a few sessions of microneedling will noticeably reduce fine lines, crow’s feet, and deep wrinkles on the forehead. “This is one of the reasons I like microneedling—because it’s able to utilize the body’s own natural healing mechanisms, so the results are very natural,” Dr. Shah says. “Also because there’s minimal downtime with it, I often recommend it as a maintenance for people who are trying to stave off the signs of aging.” To treat wrinkles, a needle length no greater than 1.5-mm should be used. (Check out the before and after pictures of microneedling on RealSelf.com.)

Microneedling repairs visible scars

In a 2009 study on the effects of microneedling, nearly 100 percent of acne-scarred participants reported a marked improvement in the visibility of their acne scars. With at-home microneedling, a 1.5-mm handheld roller is long enough to improve the appearance of acne scars. However, for severe acne scars, you may need even longer needles for maximum results, so you’ll want to find a dermatologist or facialist who performs microneedle therapy treatments. Professional grade microneedling devices can be as long as 3 mm, which is twice as effective and will treat deep acne scars that occur beneath the surface of the skin. In case you’re wondering how microneedling compares to fractional laser treatments when it comes to resolving acne scars, a head-to-head comparison published in the journal Dermatologic Surgery in 2016, found both treatments to be comparable and effective, but gave credit to microneedling for being better tolerated, with fewer side effects and less downtime. These are the secrets your skin wants to tell you.

Microneedling reverses sun damage and pigmentation

Once again, collagen is arguably the most vital way to improve the look of skin, and this goes far beyond reducing wrinkles. By stimulating collagen growth with microneedling, you can also reverse sun damage and discoloration, including the hyperpigmentation that comes with melasma. A 2015 study showed microneedling to be a promising treatment for the blotchy, brownish facial pigmentation that comes with this chronic condition. To improve extra pigmentation from sun-damaged skin, your dermaroller needles should range between 1.0 mm an 1.5 mm in length. Beauty guru Rachel Zoldan writes that after only a few microneedling sessions, her skin was clear and glowing despite too many summers in the sun. (Here’s what skin cancer looks like—do this mole check now!)

Microneedling helps aging skin

On top of microneedling’s ability to smooth and correct damaged skin, it also has the added bonus of tightening loose skin, which makes it great for older men and women. (Remember: The older you are, the less collagen you’re naturally producing.) A 2015 study in the International Journal of Dermatology confirms that microneedling is a new way to achieve “skin rejuvenation, tightening, and scar remodeling,” and that it offers a “simple and effective treatment for photo aged skin” with minimal side effects and downtime. Older skin can also greatly benefit from the right fuel, so add these beauty foods to your diet to get that glow.

Microneedling shrinks pores

It’s a bit counter-intuitive, but microneedling doesn’t actually enlarge pores as you might imagine piercing your skin hundreds of times would. Rather, one major benefit of using a dermaroller is that it helps pores appear much smaller. Microneedling stimulates collagen in and around your pores, which causes them to plump and appear shrunken, if not closed. And let’s be honest, who doesn’t want smaller pores? Watch out for these bad habits that keep clogging your pores.

Microneedling makes your products work better

Did you know that only 4 to 8 percent of that expensive serum you’re using on your face actually penetrates your skin? One of microneedling’s additional appeals is that it improves product absorption tremendously. Studies confirm that the treatment can actually help topical medications penetrate skin more efficiently, allowing you to reap the full benefits of any product. This makes total sense considering the fact that microneedling creates thousands of invisible holes in your skin that are ready to absorb products in a way clogged pores can’t. “The tiny punctures actually act like little channels, allowing topical products to penetrate better and work more effectively,” Dr. Shah says.

Microneedling can be done all over your body

Finally, an awesome benefit of microneedling is that this treatment isn’t exclusive to the face. It can be done on any area of skin that needs to be repaired—particularly areas that display stretch marks or acne scars, like the legs, chest, back, and butt. As few as four to six sessions could make a difference in these problem areas.

All of the imperative pieces being pieced together one by one! Each worker has brought their heart and soul in REBUILDING SEASONS. Each individual has brought the best version of themselves and left them in the pieces for us all to feel and enjoy. 
 The bricked front desk was something we all loved about the old Seasons. Something we want to bring to the New Seasons and Something we will remember. I was proud of the brick and brought to the old space myself by a good friend. He reached out a few days after the fire and assured me he is planning to brick our new space! It gave me light that someone believed in me and believed Seasons wasn't finished after the fire! So many tiny miracles falling into place to make this journey possible. 
There's no perfect way to heal. There's no perfect way to get over something ✨️ just trying to be the best version of me I can be. ♡ XOXO

SNEAK PEAK of behind the scenes of rebuilding Seasons!! You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending. ~ C.S. Lewis
All the details I've been working on behind the scenes while trying to open a temporary location and heal from losing my orginal location are coming together. ✨️ I never imagined it would happen this quickly. (Although it feels like forever)
We're rebuilding Seasons one piece at a time. I am so thankful for these men in my life and their dedication to helping 🙏  make this all a possibility!! I am where I am because of them and I am forever thankful for  their encouragement and support 💛  I would have thrown in the towel a thousand times over again if it wasn't for them holding me up. They have had their hands and heart in every aspect of our rebuild and I am forever grateful 🙏  our New Seasons is very sacred and special and we're so excited for y'all to come see it soon! Stop by and see the behind the scenes, you're more than welcome 139 South State Street Lindon

GRATEFUL for where we're at, excited for where we're GOING!
When I say blood, sweat and tears is what Seasons is built of im not under estimating for one second!! If I said the last 4 months was easy I'd be lying. But what I can tell you is I see first hand I can do hard things, we can do hard things!!! That people believe in the miracle of Seasons and believe in me. That I lost my soul, I've lost my self, I've lost hope and faith. But through the journey of rebuilding Seasons I am really the one being rebuilt!!! I am coming out of this journey a different Autumn a different Season. This one is STRONGER
 I am thankful for all the souls that have believed in me and supported me and cheered me on and pushed me through the hell and made me get up when I didn't think I could.  The ones that have opened my eyes. The ones that haven't left my side. The one that have held my hand. The one that have yelled at me and knocked since into me. This NEW SEASON is going to be the most beautiful Season yet. The next chapter is happening if I'm ready or not!! And I'm thankful for all those in the corner with me.

Nothing about the Rebuilding Seasons Journey has been easy! I wish I could lie and say it's rainbows and unicorns 🦄 
Each day has had its own share of adventures' ultimate highs and ultimate lows sometimes in the same day! The pressure, the demands, problem solving, adapting, changing, creating, and believing. All the feels all the hard all the blessings all the pain all the love. Keep Fighting Is What I Know Best!!! Keep Fighting, Keep Standing, Keep Giving It All I've Got!!! If I stay in the ring and play the game the best way I can. Stay humble, stay consistent, and give it all I've got!! I know eventually I'll rise up to the winning plate. 3 week friends, 3 weeks and our NEW LOCATION will be finished 🙌  we'll be walking into a new adventure of exciting and hard and new beginnings.  Starting over after 17 years ain't easy. But there is something beautiful about taking all the best things and favorite concepts and recreating something better than you already had! I'm grateful I get to walk into this new chapter with so many beautiful souls that BELIEVE IN THE MAGIC OF THE SEASON
