What Is Microneedling Treatment for the Face?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a cosmetic treatment that uses ultra-fine, medical-grade needles to create tiny punctures in the top layer of your skin. These controlled micro-injuries trigger your body’s natural healing process and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin — the building blocks of smooth, youthful skin.

At  Zoya’s Beauty Salon in Chelsea, our expert skin therapists use advanced microneedling technology to address a range of facial skin issues — from acne scars and large pores to dull skin and fine lines.

Who Is a Micro Needling Facial Good For?

• Adults aged 25–60+
  
  

• Individuals with fine lines, wrinkles, or sagging skin
  
  

• Anyone suffering from acne scars or pigmentation
  
  

• People with uneven skin texture or large pores
  
  

• Those seeking non-surgical skin tightening and rejuvenation
  
  

Benefits of Microneedling Facial Treatment

1. Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles
   Microneedling stimulates collagen to visibly smooth lines around the eyes, mouth, and forehead.
   
   

2. Improves Skin Texture and Tone
   Helps refine skin surface and shrink pores for a smoother, more even complexion.
   
   

3. Fades Acne Scars and Pigmentation
   Breaks down scar tissue and encourages the growth of fresh, healthy skin.
   
   

4. Brightens Dull Skin
   Boosts cell turnover to reveal glowing, radiant skin beneath the surface.
   
   

5. Firms Sagging Skin
   Promotes elasticity and structure, tightening areas like the jawline and cheeks.

Microneedling Aftercare Tips

• Avoid direct sunlight for 48 hours
  
  

• No makeup for at least 24 hours
  
  

• Apply a gentle, hydrating serum
  
  

• Refrain from exfoliating or using acids for 5–7 days
  
  

Microneedling for Acne Scars

Microneedling is a clinically proven solution to improve the appearance of acne scars. The micro-injuries created by the dermapen trigger your skin’s collagen production, breaking down old scar tissue and regenerating new, healthy skin. This treatment smooths indented scars and reduces discoloration, helping you achieve a clearer, more even skin tone.

Ideal for:

• Boxcar scars
  
  

• Rolling scars
  
  

• Hyperpigmentation and post-acne marks
  
  

Microneedling for Hair Loss

Microneedling for the scalp is a non-surgical approach to stimulate hair regrowth. By increasing blood flow and enhancing the absorption of growth serums, microneedling reactivates dormant hair follicles and improves scalp health.

Perfect for:

• Early-stage hair thinning
  
  

• Male and female pattern baldness
  
  

• Boosting the effects of hair growth products
  
  

For best results, combine with hair growth serums such as minoxidil or PRP.

Microneedling for Stretch Marks

Microneedling can significantly fade the appearance of stretch marks on areas like the abdomen, thighs, hips, and arms. The treatment works by boosting collagen and elastin production, which helps strengthen and smooth out damaged skin.

Effective for:

• Post-pregnancy stretch marks
  
  

• Weight loss-related marks
  
  

• General skin texture improvement
  
  

Stretch marks appear less visible, and skin feels more even and toned over time.
