How Microneedling Works

What Happens During Treatment

Using a precision device—think tiny, hair-thin needles—we make thousands of micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. These micro-channels are barely visible, but they tell your body, Okay, we’ve got work to do.

Your Skin’s Healing Response

That signal triggers your natural collagen induction therapy. It’s not about slapping on fillers or chemicals—your skin starts boosting collagen and elastin where it needs them most. Over a few weeks, those support fibers rebuild, smoothing fine lines, fading acne scars, and evening tone.

Timeline & Results

You might notice a glow right away, but real change unfolds over 2–4 weeks. Each session layers improvement—plumping dullness, refining texture, tightening pores. We usually recommend 3–6 treatments, spaced four weeks apart, for a refreshed, youthful complexion.

Why It Works Better

All-natural: No synthetic additives—just lean on your skin’s own repair processes.
Boosts absorption: Those tiny channels help skincare serums absorb deeper (hello, hyaluronic acid!).
Safe & versatile: Ideal for most skin types, addressing aging, pigmentation, texture—or even stretch marks.

What to Expect During Your Microneedling Treatment

Once you arrive at our serene and welcoming center, you’ll relax in a private, soothing treatment room. Your specialist will gently cleanse your skin and apply a topical numbing gel to ensure your experience is as comfortable and relaxing as possible. Many clients describe the sensation as a gentle pressure or mild tingling—some even compare it to the light brushing of fine sandpaper. With numbing gel, discomfort is minimal.

After your session, you may notice mild redness or small red dots, similar to a light sunburn. These typically fade within 2-3 days. Microneedling is minimally invasive, so downtime is practically non-existent. Most clients return to their regular routine immediately afterward, feeling refreshed and renewed.

How Much Does Microneedling Cost?

Body Ache Escape charges $300 per session or you can buy a package of 5 for $1350.

When Will I See Results?

Your skin will start to show visible improvements within about two weeks, becoming progressively smoother and more vibrant. For optimal results, we usually recommend a series of three to six treatments, spaced about four weeks apart. During your consultation, we’ll personalize a plan tailored specifically to your skin’s needs and your desired outcomes.

Who is Microneedling Right For?

Microneedling works wonders for many skin types, addressing issues like fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and uneven texture. However, it’s not suitable for everyone. Those who are pregnant, smokers, or individuals with active acne, rosacea, infections, eczema, or very sensitive skin should avoid this treatment. It’s also not recommended if you’re experiencing sunburn or have a history of abnormal scarring.

As always, it’s essential to consult with our skincare experts if you have any questions or specific concerns related to microneedling.

Frequently Asked Questions About Microneedling

What is the downtime for microneedling?

Microneedling has minimal downtime, making it a popular choice for busy patients seeking refreshed, glowing skin without disrupting their schedules. After completing your facial treatment, you may notice mild redness or slight sensitivity, similar to a mild sunburn. Typically, these effects subside within 2-3 days, and you can quickly return to your normal routine as your skin completes its natural healing process.

Here are a few important things to keep in mind during your recovery:

Mild redness or sensitivity is common but short-lived.
Avoid direct sun exposure immediately after the procedure.
Skip rigorous skincare treatments or exfoliation for several days.
Maintain gentle skincare practices to help your skin heal faster.
Schedule your appointment when you can easily allow 1-2 days of low-key activities.

Our specialists will evaluate your skin to ensure you’re a good candidate and guide you throughout the process, helping you achieve optimal results.

How long will my microneedling appointment take?

Your microneedling facial will typically take around 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated and your specific skincare goals. Most patients find the procedure to be quick, comfortable, and easy to fit into their schedule. During this time, our specialists carefully evaluate your skin and perform the treatment, which promotes healing and rejuvenates your natural beauty. After completing your facial session, you’ll enjoy a healthy glow and minimal recovery time, making microneedling a great candidate for those with busy lifestyles.

How many microneedling treatments will I need?

The number of microneedling treatments you’ll need depends on your individual goals and the concerns you’re looking to address. Most patients achieve their best results after completing a series of three to six treatments, typically spaced about four weeks apart. Each procedure involves tiny needles that stimulate collagen production, rejuvenating your skin and giving it a more even tone and beautiful glow. During your appointment, our provider will evaluate your skin and review your goals to determine how many treatments will be most effective for you.

Does microneedling hurt?

Microneedling typically causes minimal discomfort, as tiny needles gently create microscopic punctures to stimulate collagen production. A numbing cream is applied prior to the treatment. Most patients describe the feeling as mild tingling or slight pressure during the procedure. Afterward, your skin might feel tight, with minor redness or swelling, but this usually fades within a few days. Following your provider’s instructions—such as avoiding direct sun exposure and using proper hydration—helps speed up the healing process. You can generally wear makeup the next day, and within a few weeks, you’ll achieve firmer skin, reduced acne scars, fewer wrinkles, and an overall rejuvenated appearance.
