I had my first ever microneedling treatment at 8 West. I honestly have to say, I’ve never had skin so healthy and glowing before and this is only after my first treatment! I couldn’t be more excited about my results! I highly recommend 8 west!!
I have been doing microneedling at 8west clinic for almost a year now for the acne scarring on my cheeks, and I have seen tremendous improvement in the quality of my skin and fading of my scars. The best part about 8west clinic is the amazing expertise that reflects in patients' results.
I love 8 west! Andrea is very informative, patient, kind and thorough! I’ve had amazing laser, micro needling, and hydro facial sessions with her so far! Dr B also did my rhino a few yrs back and I was very pleased with my healing and results! I highly recommend 8 west.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is medical microneedling performed?
Your treatment will begin with your Medical Aesthetician cleansing your skin and applying a light topical numbing cream to the treatment area, to ensure you are comfortable.Your Medical Aesthetician will then run the Microneedling pen over your skin, with the aid of a hydrating serum to assist the pen to seamlessly glide over your skin. As the Microneedling pen rolls over your skin, the ultra-fine needles will gently penetrate the skin. It’s these controlled micro wounds that cause your skin to produce more collagen and elastin, as well as stimulate your skin’s natural healing process to help it look brighter and tighter.We typically recommend a series of 3 to 6 Microneedling treatments based on the conditions you wish to treat as well as your skin type. Each session should be spaced between 4-6 weeks apart, depending on the treatment plan provided by your Medical Aesthetician.
How Does Microneedling work?
Microneedling is such a phenomenal treatment as it utilizes your skin’s own natural healing ability to plump and refine your skin. By safely creating controlled micro-channels in your epidermis (uppermost layer of the skin), an abundance of collagen and elastin will be produced, essential for plumping the skin. In addition to increasing blood flow to the face, for brighter, tighter, glowing skin.
In the first few weeks after treatment, you will notice initial results in the form of smoother skin with a more even complexion. In the months following, as collagen and elastin production increases, your skin will begin to plump from deep within the dermis (layer of skin under the epidermis). This will then present as plumper, fresher and tighter skin with a radiant glow.
What to Expect During Medical Microneedling
Your Microneedling journey begins with a complimentary consultation at 8 West Cosmetic Surgery & Skin Clinic to assess your skin and determine the best treatment plan for your skin goals and unique condition.Immediately after your Microneedling treatment, your skin will be a little flushed and pink for around 12 hours, with some potential pinpoint bleeding. Your skin may also feel dry and tight for a short while as your skin begins the healing process.
What treatments pair well with Microneedling?
Patients who want to get the best out of their Microneedling results may find Dermal Fillers a wonderful addition to contour and add definition to the cheeks or jaw line.Those who are searching for anti-aging results and desire an all-over “lifted” look, Wrinkle Relaxing Injections can be used for both. This popular treatment can be used to soften and prevent fine lines and wrinkles, while also adding a subtle brow lift to bring out the best in how you look and feel.Microneedling treatments can also be used in tandem with our laser resurfacing treatments, such as Halo Hybrid Fractional Laser and or BBL Forever Clear, depending on your dream results.
