How Does Microneedling Work?

Microneedling creates channels in your skin at varying depths to stimulate the production of collagen, renewal of damaged or dull skin cells, and healing response that reboots your complexion at its surface and below. The depth at which the needles penetrate the skin is very important to the results you can achieve. Tiny needles create these micro-injuries, paving the way for your creams and serums to infuse more productively and renew your skin from the inside out. 

Hyaluronic acid serums can restore hydration while Vitamin C can brighten dark spots and hyperpigmentation. Your favorite products get a boost in effectiveness, reminding you why you fell in love with them in the first place. With 4-6 microneedling treatments, your complexion is smoother, your tone is more even, and its elasticity is more youthful and firm, leaving you looking young and beautiful. 

Microneedling with Genius RF adds radiofrequency energy to the microneedles. This treatment penetrates deeper into the dermis, where fibroblasts—collagen’s creators—live. RF energy at this precision depth urges robust growth of collagen fibers. Because the needles bypass the top layer before the RF energy is delivered, the risk of hyperpigmentation is very low. Your pores are minimized, scars are softened and new skin cells replace scarred ones, reducing their appearance. Texture and tone are evened out and overall, your skin tightens for a more youthful appearance. Genius RF added to microneedling only requires 2-3 sessions to dramatically improve your skin. With the deeper channels, your facial regimen can go deeper than ever before. 

Microneedling with PRP takes serum infusion to a whole new level by adding Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). PRP is extracted from your own blood supply, and it contains growth factors that can’t be found elsewhere. PRP brings your body’s stem cells into play. Stem cells are fundamentally “blanks” which can evolve into whatever cells your skin most needs. Renew your skin’s firmness, tightness, and youth with new collagen, elastin, and skin cells to improve tone, texture, and any number of other skin conditions. Few creams or serums can compete with that.

Why Microneedling Depths Matter

Having your microneedling with Dr. Zenovia and the ZENA Medical team is a wise decision because of the difference in depth they can achieve compared to a typical spa’s aesthetician. Nurse practitioners and physicians are licensed to perform a much deeper microneedling treatment, which leads to more dramatic results since the healing response is greater due to more layers of skin being affected. The deeper the micro-channels, the greater the depth your creams and serums can infuse, so more area of your skin is positively enhanced by your products’ active ingredients.
