The Ultimate Guide to Microneedling at Spindrift Aesthetics | St. Pete

As fall settles in, it brings to us cooler temperatures and less humid air which makes this the perfect season to focus on renewing and rejuvenating your skin.  After the sun-filled summer months, fall is the ideal season for microneedling treatments and chemical peels.  This time of year allows for less sun exposure and cooler temperatures, which helps your skin recover more smoothly.  Let’s discuss all you need to know about microneedling treatments and the benefits microneedling can provide for your skin.

What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses tiny, sterile needles to create micro-injury in the skin.  These micro-injuries stimulate your skin’s natural healing response, which in turn boosts collagen and elastin production.  Collagen and elastin are essential for maintaining firm, smooth, and radiant skin.  Collagen and elastin are the main support systems of the skin, as we age our production of collagen and elastin diminishes while the natural degradation of both increases.  Microneedling is a great nonsurgical skin treatment that helps your body regenerate these essential elements.

Key Benefits of Microneedling at Spindrift Aesthetics | St. Pete

Reduction of Fine Lines and Wrinkles: One of the most desired benefits of microneedling is its ability to help diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. With microneedling, the body increases its production of collagen and elastin leading to plumper and smoother skin, making wrinkles less noticeable.

Improves Skin Tone and Texture:  Microneedling skin treatments helps to reduce acne scars, large pores, scarring, and other skin irregularities.  Along with these benefits, microneedling can help to even out skin tone by minimizing hyperpigmentation and sun damage.  At Spindrift Aesthetics in St. Pete, we partner our microneedling treatments with some of the most advanced technologies in skin rejuvenation like exosomes and platelet rich plasma leading to even better results than microneedling alone.

Enhances Skincare Product Absorption:  Following your microneedling treatment, your skin’s absorption rate skyrockets allowing for topical treatments to penetrate deeper.  This increased absorption helps to amplify the effectiveness of your skin care routine and better absorption of products applied during your treatment.  At Spindrift Aesthetics, I pride myself in bringing you the most advanced skin care technology and treatment.  During your microneedling treatment advanced products such as exosomes, platelet rich plasma, neurotoxins, and much more can be added to your treatment. 

Minimal Downtime: Unlike invasive treatments like RF microneedling and ablative laser treatments, microneedling offers impressive results with little to no downtime.  While you might experience slight swelling and redness, most patient can resume normal activities the soon after.  

Hair Rejuvenation:  Microneedling treatments have expanded into hair rejuvenation.  Following a stressful event, Covid-19, and even in the post-partum period, hair loss becomes a major concern.  At Spindrift Aesthetics, we offer treatments to help combat hair loss with platelet rich plasma microneedling and DE|RIVE exosome treatments.

What Can I Expect During My Treatment?

A microneedling treatment at Spindrift Aesthetics begins with a thorough assessment of your skin as well as your goals and expected outcomes.  A topical numbing cream is applied for 20 minutes and is followed with a generous cleanse of the skin.  Once your skin is prepped, the microneedling treatment begins and is curated throughout the process to address all of your skin concerns.  The procedure takes around 30-60 minutes depending on the treatment area and the concerns being addresses. 

Microneedling Post-Care and Results

Following your microneedling session, your skin will be slightly pink to red and mildly swollen.  These effects are similar to having a mild sunburn.  This redness and swelling subsides within 1-2 days depending on your treatment.  You should avoid sun for 48-72 hours and be diligent about using a sunscreen to protect your skin while it is in the healing process.  You’ll receive your complimentary post-care skin and instructions on how to use each product.  The most important things you can do during the first few days after your microneedling treatment are to keep your skin clean and protected from the sun.  For the best results a series of 3-4 treatments are recommended and spaced 4-6 weeks apart.  Results vary from person to person and are dependent on your skins condition when you start the treatment.

How Much Does Microneedling Cost?

Microneedling skin treatments can vary depending on the treatment and provider.  At Spindrift Aesthetics our microneedling sessions start at $275 a treatment for a hydrating microneedling.  We offer financing options, memberships and bundled pricing for additional microneedling treatment savings.

Is Microneedling Right for You?

Microneedling skin rejuvenation is suitable for a wide range of skin types and concerns.  It is essential to consult with a licensed provider to ensure it’s the right treatment for your skin and skin condition.  Those with active acne, infections, or those who are pregnant or nursing may need to explore alternative treatments. 

Microneedling is a highly effective way to rejuvenate your skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, boost your skin’s natural glow, and has long term anti-aging benefits.  With little to no downtime and results that last, it’s no wonder this treatment is a go-to for skincare enthusiasts.  Interested in learning more or booking your microneedling treatment?   Contact me today to get started!
