Microneedling
For patients who prefer a gentle and natural approach to looking younger, Dr. Farzaneh is proud to offer microneedling – an innovative and minimally-invasive facial rejuvenation procedure.
What is microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), is a gentle, minimally-invasive skin rejuvenation procedure that involves puncturing the skin with very fine needles to create microscopic “wounds.” These “wounds” then encourage your body to revitalize and renew itself naturally by producing new collagen. In this way, microneedling improves the appearance of cosmetic imperfections and minimizes telltale signs of aging.
The benefits of microneedling.
Microneedling is a very popular procedure at our TrueCare facility because of the many benefits it offers, including:
- It’s gentle and minimally-invasive.
- It can correct uneven skin tone, enlarged pores and acne scars.
- It can improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines without the use of dermal fillers or BOTOX.
- It is safe to use on all skin types and tones.
- It encourages your skin to renew itself naturally, without artificial fillers, invasive surgery or a more aggressive laser treatment.
An Overview of the Microneedling Procedure
To begin the procedure, a topical anesthetic will be applied to ensure your total comfort. From there, we will pierce the skin in the treatment area using a series of microscopic needles, encouraging the body’s natural healing response and stimulating collagen production. Most patients will need a series of 3 to 5 microneedling treatments, at which point firm, lifted and naturally rejuvenated skin will be apparent. After each treatment, you will be advised to avoid sun exposure and retinoids to ensure an optimal outcome.

After Care for Microneedling
Proper aftercare is essential to maximize the benefits of your microneedling treatment and support your skin’s natural healing process. In the hours and days following your procedure, you may experience mild redness or sensitivity—similar to a light sunburn—which typically subsides within 24 to 48 hours.
General Post-Treatment Guidelines
- Hydration & Moisture: Keep your skin well-hydrated with a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer.
- Sun Protection: Apply a broad-spectrum SPF daily, as your skin will be more sensitive to UV rays.
- Gentle Cleansing: Use a mild cleanser and avoid exfoliating products, acids, or retinoids for several days.
- Healing Support: Do not pick or scratch treated areas; allow natural recovery for optimal results.
Advanced Aftercare: Rejuran Skin Booster
To further enhance your results, we offer Rejuran Skin Booster, a next-generation treatment derived from polynucleotides (PN) sourced from salmon DNA. When used after microneedling, Rejuran penetrates deeply into the microchannels created during treatment, accelerating repair and rejuvenation at the cellular level.
Benefits of Rejuran After Microneedling:
- Stimulates collagen and elastin production for firmer, smoother skin.
- Reduces inflammation and enhances skin barrier recovery.
- Improves hydration, elasticity, and long-term texture refinement.
- Supports natural DNA repair for healthier, more resilient skin.
By combining microneedling with Rejuran PN therapy, patients experience faster healing, more radiant results, and prolonged skin improvements compared to microneedling alone.
Customized Aftercare Plans
Every patient’s skin is unique. Our team will provide you with a tailored aftercare plan designed to protect your investment and help you achieve the best possible outcome from your microneedling treatment.
Are you a candidate for microneedling?
As with all of his cosmetic procedures, Dr. Farzaneh determines microneedling candidacy on an individual basis, following a thorough discussion of the patient’s cosmetic goals, concerns and desires. With that said, because this procedure is gentle and doesn’t cause significant wounding of the skin, anyone who wants to achieve a healthier and more youthful facial appearance without an aggressive procedure is generally considered to be a candidate for microneedling.
During your initial consultation, Dr. Farzaneh will advise on whether or not you are an ideal candidate for this procedure, and if microneedling can accomplish the precise cosmetic results you desire.
