What is Microneedling Acne Scar Treatment?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive skin procedure that uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. These tiny punctures stimulate the body’s natural healing process, resulting in increased collagen and elastin the proteins responsible for firm, smooth skin.

How Does Microneedling Work?

A dermatologist-guided device with ultra-fine needles glides over the skin.
The micro-injuries activate wound-healing, boosting cell turnover and collagen remodeling.
Needle depth is customized based on scar severity and skin type.
For enhanced results, microneedling can be combined with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) or serum infusion for faster healing and glow.

Conditions Microneedling Can Treat

Microneedling is versatile and effective for:

Acne scars (rolling, boxcar, mild ice-pick)
Enlarged pores
Fine lines and wrinkles
Uneven tone & texture
Stretch marks
Pigmentation and sun damage

Benefits of Microneedling Treatment

Reduces acne scars and smoothens skin texture
Minimally invasive with short downtime
Safe for all skin tones, including Indian skin (lower risk of hyperpigmentation vs. aggressive lasers)
Improves absorption of serums and PRP
Stimulates natural collagen, giving long-lasting results
