We all notice changes in our face first — it’s the part of us that meets the world every day. Our microneedling treatments work beneath the surface to support healing, collagen production, and healthier-looking skin over time.
Start your ritual
Microneedling isn’t just a single-focus treatment — it’s versatile enough to target the areas most people worry about first. From acne scars along the cheeks to fine lines around the eyes and mouth, even sun spots on the forehead or melasma across the skin’s surface, microneedling helps smooth, even, and strengthen where it counts.
During treatment, tiny controlled micro-channels are created across the skin. This process triggers your body’s natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production right where it’s needed most. The result is skin that repairs itself from the inside out — firmer, smoother, and more resilient over time.
Science aside — every face is unique. Talk to our concierge team about your specific concerns and we’ll help you build the right plan.
Let’s Talk Face
We start with a skin assessment to understand your concerns — from acne scars to fine lines. Our nurses, doctors and concierge team helps you choose the right experience, add-ons or boosters for your skin goals.
Your face is cleansed and gently numbed for comfort, while medical-grade red light therapy works to support regeneration and reduce bacteria. Every step follows strict clinical protocols to ensure precision, safety, and results you can trust.
Using advanced devices, we create controlled micro-channels across targeted areas of your face. This stimulates collagen and elastin production while improving your skin’s ability to absorb active ingredients.
Post-treatment, your skin may be slightly pink (like a light sunburn), but most redness resolves in 24–48 hours. As collagen rebuilds, you’ll notice gradual improvements in texture, tone, and firmness with every session.
Consistency is where results compound. Your concierge will help you schedule monthly visits or plan a membership so your skin keeps getting stronger over time.
Most clients describe it as mildly prickly but very tolerable. We apply a topical numbing cream beforehand to keep you comfortable throughout the treatment.
You may notice a glow within a few days, but collagen production takes time. Most people see smoother texture and tone within 4–6 weeks, with results compounding after each session.
Expect some redness, like a light sunburn, for 24–48 hours. Makeup and skincare can usually be resumed after 24 hours, depending on your skin’s response.
It depends on your skin goals. For concerns like acne scarring or melasma, a series of 3–6 treatments is typical. For maintenance and aging gracefully, monthly sessions are ideal.
Yes — microneedling is safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types. It’s a non-thermal treatment, so there’s little risk of hyperpigmentation compared to lasers.
Yes, microneedling can improve melasma by enhancing skin turnover and helping topical brightening agents penetrate more effectively. However, it typically requires multiple sessions and proper sun protection.
Standard microneedling uses fine needles to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture. RF microneedling combines this with radiofrequency energy, heating the dermis to tighten skin and target deeper lines or scars. At The Dot, we offer RF as an add-on, performed before microneedling to safely treat deeper layers while protecting the skin’s natural fat pads.
Yes — with the right technique and depth, microneedling is safe for the delicate under-eye area. It can improve fine lines and crepiness without thinning the skin.
Professional microneedling devices use sterile, medical-grade needles with controlled depth and precision. At-home rollers are less effective and carry risks of infection and scarring.
Microneedling isn’t recommended if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, have active acne or infections in the treatment area, are on Accutane within the past year, or have a history of abnormal scarring/keloids.
