What is microneedling?

Microneedling at Butterfly MedSpa and Wellness uses tiny needles to stimulate new collagen and elastin production (new cell growth) without incisions or surgery. The tiny microtears harness your body’s natural ability to heal and revitalize treated tissues.

What are the benefits of microneedling?

Microneedling at Butterfly MedSpa and Wellness offers numerous cosmetic benefits, including:

• Tighter skin
• Smoother, revitalized tissues
• Increased new skin cell production 
• Healthier skin
• Younger-looking appearance
• Reduced lines and wrinkles
• Diminished acne, burn, and surgery scars
• Smaller pores

Microneedling doesn’t require any downtime, and there’s no pain associated with it. It’s safe and highly effective for your face, legs, arms, abdomen, hands, and other areas.

Which microneedling options are available?

Butterfly MedSpa and Wellness provides numerous microneedling treatment options, including:

Eclipse MicroPen Elite®

Microneedling with the Eclipse MicroPen Elite resurfaces treated skin using an automated microneedling device with a disposable tip cartridge containing about 12-32 microneedles.

Microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP)

Microneedling with PRP uses plasma rich in platelets to further stimulate new cell growth. Your Butterfly MedSpa and Wellness provider sources PRP from your blood and applies it, along with microneedling, to the affected areas. This allows PRP to seep deep within treated tissues. 

Fractora radiofrequency microneedling

Fractora radiofrequency resurfacing uses advanced radiofrequency microneedling technology to optimize skin tone and texture using ablation and innovative skin resurfacing techniques. It reduces lines and deep wrinkles, diminishes scarring, and lessens discoloration to achieve radiant skin without surgery.

Nanoneedling

Nanoneedling uses pyramid-shaped nano pins, which are smaller than a strand of hair, to assist in absorbing professional skin care products. This treatment reduces scarring, pigmentation problems, elasticity, and other skin imperfections.

Dermaplaning

During dermaplaning treatments, your provider exfoliates targeted using a tiny blade to reduce peach fuzz and slough off dead skin cells. Dermaplaning contributes to beautiful, smoother, revitalized skin with fewer imperfections. 

What happens during microneedling?

During microneedling treatments at Butterfly MedSpa and Wellness, your specialist cleans your skin and numbs it to avoid any discomfort. They use a specialized microneedling device or other technologies to make tiny tears in soft tissues, stimulate healing, and enhance new cell growth. Your treatment might last about 30 minutes, depending on your individualized needs.

Common side effects include redness and tenderness at the treatment site. Cell regeneration typically continues for several months. Your specialist often suggests a series of three to six treatment sessions. Consider microneedling once or twice a year.
