Microneedling
Microneedling is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that taps into your skin’s natural healing power to reduce fine lines, improve tone and texture, and boost your overall glow. At SKINPLUSBYOROYO in Little Elm, TX, we pair expertise with precision-based technology to support all skin tones. Whether you’re looking to fade scars, refresh dull skin, or simply invest in long-term skin health, microneedling offers a beautiful starting point.
About Microneedling
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a non-invasive treatment that rejuvenates the skin by triggering its natural healing response. Using a device with fine, sterile needles, it creates controlled micro-injuries that act as a gentle wake-up call—prompting your skin to produce more collagen and elastin for a smoother, firmer complexion.
FDA-cleared and safe for all skin tones, microneedling is especially trusted by women of color for its effectiveness and minimal risk of hyperpigmentation.
What Does Microneedling Treat?
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars and other mild scarring
- Hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone
- Enlarged pores
- Rough or uneven skin texture
- Stretch marks
- Dull or tired-looking skin
How It Works
Each microneedling session creates thousands of tiny channels across the skin’s surface, triggering your body’s natural repair process and stimulating the production of fresh collagen and elastin. Because microneedling works with your skin—not against it—it’s an ideal choice for those with sensitive or richly pigmented skin.
Is Microneedling Right for Me?
If you’re looking for a treatment that supports long-term skin health and visible improvement with minimal downtime, microneedling may be an excellent fit.
However, it may not be suitable for individuals with:
- A history of keloid scarring
- Active acne, open lesions, or infections in the treatment area
- Conditions such as rosacea, eczema, or psoriasis
- Blood clotting issues or autoimmune disorders
- A recent history of Accutane (within 6 months)
- Pregnancy
A personalized consultation at SKINPLUSBYOROYO will help determine if microneedling is the best next step for your skin goals.
Why Patients Love Microneedling
Clients return to microneedling time and time again, not only for the visible improvements but also for how it makes them feel. It’s more than a treatment—it’s a ritual of renewal, a way to reconnect with the healthiest version of your skin.
Brighter, More Even Skin Tone
Microneedling helps fade dark spots and pigmentation irregularities, leaving behind a more uniform complexion that glows naturally.
Smoother Texture
By encouraging collagen renewal, this treatment softens rough patches and gives your skin a silkier, more touchable feel.
Confidence in Photos and Makeup-Free Days
The improved skin clarity and reduced pore appearance often make clients feel more confident without foundation or filters.
A Gentle, Non-Invasive Experience
There are no harsh chemicals or ablative lasers involved—just a powerful boost from your own biology.
Compatible with All Skin Tones
Unlike some treatments that may cause hyperpigmentation in darker skin tones, microneedling is safe and effective for richly melanated skin.
Boosts the Effectiveness of Your Skincare
The micro-channels created during treatment enhance absorption of post-procedure serums and creams, amplifying your at-home routine.
Questions? We Have The Answers!
Does microneedling hurt or feel uncomfortable?
Most clients describe the sensation as a light prickling or vibration. A topical numbing cream is applied before your session to keep you comfortable throughout the treatment.
How many sessions will I need to see results?
While you may notice a glow after your first session, a series of 3 to 6 treatments spaced about 4 weeks apart is typically recommended for optimal results, especially for deeper concerns like scarring or pigmentation.
Is microneedling safe for darker skin tones?
Yes. Microneedling is one of the most inclusive treatments available and is safe for richly pigmented skin. It doesn’t involve heat or aggressive resurfacing, so there’s little risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
Come to your appointment with clean, makeup-free skin. Avoid sun exposure and products with retinoids, glycolic, or salicylic acid 24 hours prior. If you’re prone to cold sores in the area, start an antiviral 2 days before. Shave the area if there is dense hair, and skip aspirin or fish oil for 2 days unless directed otherwise.
What should I do after the treatment?
Avoid direct sunlight, exercise, and swimming for 72 hours. Use a gentle cleanser and apply a calming serum or cream until irritation subsides. Sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) is essential starting the next day. You can wear makeup the following day and resume your regular skincare routine once your skin feels calm.
What about downtime, pricing, or maintenance?
Downtime is minimal—most clients experience redness for 1-2 days. Pricing varies depending on the area treated and the number of sessions. Maintenance treatments every few months can help extend results and keep your skin in top shape.
