Microneedling in Wilmington, NC

What is microneedling, and how does it work?

Microneedling is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedure designed to rejuvenate your skin naturally. Using fine needles, microneedling creates tiny, controlled punctures in the skin’s surface, triggering your body’s natural collagen production and stimulating cell renewal.

What skin concerns can microneedling address?

This advanced treatment effectively addresses:

  • Fine Lines & Wrinkles: Stimulates collagen to reduce the appearance of aging.

  • Acne Scars: Minimizes scars and promotes smoother skin texture.

  • Enlarged Pores: Shrinks pore size for a more refined complexion.

  • Uneven Skin Texture: Smooths rough patches and enhances skin clarity.

  • Hyperpigmentation: Fades dark spots and discoloration.

  • Sun Damage: Repairs UV-induced damage for healthier-looking skin.

  • Skin Laxity: Firms and tightens loose, sagging skin.

  • Dull Complexion: Revitalizes lackluster skin for a brighter, more glowing look.

  • Overall Skin Rejuvenation: Boosts collagen and elastin for a youthful, refreshed appearance.

What to Expect in Your Microneedling Treatment:

Before

Consultation Required:
Before receiving microneedling, a consultation is mandatory to ensure your skin is properly prepared. During this visit, your skincare professional will assess your concerns, discuss your goals, and determine if microneedling is the right treatment for you.

At BOUQ, we do not perform intensive treatments on unprepped skin. All microneedling clients must be on a Lira Clinical skincare regimen prior to treatment to ensure safe, effective results.

Preparation: Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed, and a numbing cream will be applied to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.

During

Microneedling: The microneedling device will be gently passed over the treatment area, creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin's surface.

Serum application: Before and after microneedling, a serum containing beneficial ingredients will be applied to enhance targeted results and promote healing.

After

Post-treatment care: After your microneedling treatment, your skincare professional will provide detailed post-treatment instructions to help your skin heal and maximize results.

Follow-Up Treatments for Optimal Results:
To achieve the best possible outcome, your treatment plan may include follow-up sessions. These follow-ups ensure consistent progress and allow your professional to monitor your skin's improvement.

Overall, microneedling is a relatively quick and straightforward procedure that can be customized to address your specific skin concerns and goals.

Yes, there is typically some downtime associated with microneedling, but it is usually minimal. After the treatment, you may experience redness, swelling, and mild sensitivity in the treated area, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects typically subside within a few days.
