Debunking Common Microneedling Myths

Are you worried about trying out microneedling ? You're not alone; many are hesitant to try the procedure due to misinformation and myths. But fear not – we’re here to set the record straight! Here at Glamour MD, we have all the answers to help you make an informed decision.

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is an aesthetic procedure that is used to help with wrinkles, scarring, and skin texture issues. It works by creating tiny punctures in the skin with a device that’s covered with very fine needles. This stimulates collagen production and helps promote the overall rejuvenation of the skin.

Myth 1: It Hurts

Contrary to popular belief, microneedling is not a painful procedure. Most treatments use a numbing cream before the procedure so you won't feel anything while it’s being done. In addition, modern devices used by professionals have made it easier to adjust the depth and intensity of each treatment, allowing for a more comfortable experience.

Myth 2: Microneedling causes scaring

When done correctly, microneedling should not leave scars and will actually help stimulate collagen production which can improve the appearance of existing skin imperfections and wrinkles over time.

Myth 3: It Produces Immediate Results

It takes time for the body's natural healing process to come into effect and for results to show. Immediately after treatment, your skin will look slightly pink or red, but this should go away within 24-48 hours depending on your own personal healing process. Long-term results usually appear in around 6-8 weeks after treatment as collagen production continues.

Myth 4: Anybody Can Do It

We don't recommend trying microneedling at home as inexperienced use could cause further damage such as scarring or infection. Make sure that you entrust your facial health only with experienced professionals who know how to properly set up and use the device according to safety guidelines. At Glamour MD, our specialists are well-trained in performing these kinds of procedures safely and efficiently so we can make sure you get good results without running any risks. 

All things considered, microneedling is a safe and effective way of improving minor skin issues such as wrinkles, acne scars, or pigmentation problems with minimal downtime needed from day-to-day activities. So why wait? Contact us at Glamour MD today for more information about our advanced miconeedling treatments! Your perfect complexion awaits!
