Microneedling Treatment in Long Island, NY
Microneedling Treatment
Microneedling is a treatment that uses a specialized tool to create thousands of microchannels in the skin. These microchannels trigger the skin’s natural healing response. Consequently, this procedure corrects skin concerns by promoting healthy skin cell structures from the inside. The microneedling process may improve the skin’s elasticity and aid in anti-aging by increasing collagen production. Microneedling is non-invasive and will have no downtime. All skin types may benefit from a microneedling procedure to boost their glow and improve their complexion!
The benefits don’t stop there. Microchannels greatly enhance the benefits of topical products by allowing them to penetrate more deeply into the skin! You’ll benefit more from the antioxidants, serums, and growth factors you use as part of your medical-grade skincare routine!

- Boosts Collagen And Elastin Production
- Plumps And Tones The Skin

FAQs
What is microneedling?
Microneedling is a skin treatment involving an electric skin-needling device, often called a “skin pen.” Fine, sterile needles create micro-injuries that trigger the body’s healing response, promoting collagen and blood flow at the treatment area. New, healthier skin structures are built from the inside, resulting in a more youthful, radiant complexion!
Who is a good candidate for microneedling?
Microneedling is generally safe and effective for all skin types.
When will I see results after microneedling?
Most patients notice an immediate brightening in their complexion. Over several days and weeks, the skin undergoes visible changes. After treatment, results can continue to improve for up to six months as collagen production continues.
How many treatments will I need?
Microneedling can be performed every six to eight weeks. For those tackling scarring and uneven texture, advanced signs of aging, or stretch marks, a series of treatments may be needed to reach optimal results. Your Glow Wellness provider will consult you on the best course of action to achieve your goals!
