Rejuvenate your skin with microneedling, a minimally invasive treatment that enhances collagen production to address fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven skin tone. Dr. Sahar Nadimi uses advanced techniques to restore your skin’s natural glow, leaving it smoother, firmer, and more youthful with minimal downtime.
Boost collagen production and refresh your skin
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive procedure that stimulates your skin’s natural healing process. Using a device with fine, sterilized needles, microneedling creates micro-injuries in the skin to trigger collagen and elastin production. This process improves skin texture, reduces the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and enlarged pores, and enhances overall skin tone. Dr. Nadimi performs microneedling with precision to ensure optimal results, leaving your skin rejuvenated and refreshed with minimal downtime.
Microneedling treats:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars and other facial scarring
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Sun damage and hyperpigmentation
- Stretch marks on various areas of the body
- Loss of skin firmness and elasticity
How microneedling works
Microneedling stimulates the skin’s natural repair process by creating controlled micro-injuries using tiny, sterile needles. These microchannels trigger the body’s wound-healing response, boosting the production of collagen and elastin—proteins essential for skin strength, elasticity, and resilience.
The process also enhances the absorption of topical serums, maximizing their effectiveness. Over time, new collagen fibers replace damaged tissue, improving skin texture, firmness, and tone. Dr. Nadimi ensures precise, tailored treatments, promoting rejuvenation while minimizing discomfort and downtime for beautifully revitalized skin.

Microneedling FAQs
Does Microneedling Hurt?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure, and most patients describe it as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. To ensure your comfort, Dr. Nadimi applies a topical numbing cream before the treatment. This significantly reduces any discomfort.
How Long Does a Microneedling Session Take?
A typical microneedling session lasts about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area and the depth of the procedure. This includes time for numbing and the microneedling process itself. If combined with other treatments, additional time may be required.
What Can I Expect After Microneedling?
Immediately after the procedure, your skin may appear red and feel slightly sensitive, similar to a mild sunburn. You might also experience minor swelling or pinpoint bleeding, which typically subsides within 24-48 hours. Over the next few days, your skin will begin to heal, and you’ll notice gradual improvements in texture and tone.
How Many Sessions Will I Need to See Results?
While many patients notice an improvement after just one session, optimal results typically require 3-6 treatments spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. The number of sessions depends on your skin concerns and goals, which Dr. Nadimi will discuss during your consultation.
Is There Any Downtime After Microneedling?
Microneedling requires minimal downtime, and most patients can return to normal activities within 24 hours. However, it’s essential to avoid sun exposure, vigorous exercise, and harsh skincare products for the first few days to allow your skin to heal properly.
Who is a Good Candidate for Microneedling?
Microneedling is suitable for most skin types and tones. It’s an excellent option for individuals looking to address fine lines, acne scars, enlarged pores, or uneven skin tone. However, it may not be appropriate for those with active skin infections, severe eczema, or uncontrolled acne.
