Microneedling
Smooth texture, refined pores, and healthy elasticity begin beneath the surface. Microneedling—also known as collagen induction therapy—is a time-tested, science-backed procedure designed to activate your skin’s inherent capacity for repair and renewal. By creating thousands of microscopic micro-injuries in the upper dermis, microneedling triggers a natural wound-healing cascade that generates fresh collagen and elastin fibers without causing heat damage or removing outer skin layers.
Welcome to Aesthetic Assets, where we believe that healthy, glowing skin is a priceless asset. Our non-surgical microneedling treatments using SkinPen and Rejuvapen can help you achieve your skin goals by stimulating collagen production and improving texture and tone. Combine with PRP and PRF for extra rejuvenation, targeting fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars on the face, neck, and décolleté. Let us help you reveal your best skin yet!
Trigger natural collagen and elastin production to smooth rough texture, reduce pore size, fade acne scars, and soften fine lines.
Efficient in-office appointments lasting approximately 45 to 60 minutes, including topical numbing for total comfort.
Minimal downtime—expect mild redness and slight swelling similar to a light sunburn for 24 to 48 hours.
Initial brightness appears within 1 to 2 weeks, with continuous structural collagen growth building over 3 to 6 months.

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a device with tiny, sterile needles to create micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. These micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing response, leading to an increase in collagen production.
Collagen is a crucial protein that provides structure and elasticity to the skin. By stimulating collagen production, microneedling can reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars. This treatment improves skin texture and tone, resulting in a more youthful and radiant complexion.
Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries to the skin’s surface using a device with tiny needles. This process triggers the body’s natural healing response, which involves the release of growth factors and the production of collagen and elastin.
Collagen is a structural protein that provides support and firmness to the skin, while elastin is responsible for its elasticity and resilience. As the skin heals, the production of these proteins increases, leading to improved skin texture, tone, and elasticity.
Your Microneedling Session
Your microneedling session will begin with a consultation with our skincare expert to assess your skin concerns. We apply a numbing gel on your skin to ensure comfort, following which we use the SkinPen or Rejuvapen device to create micro-injuries on your skin’s surface. The depth of micro-needles is modified according to your specific concerns. We may also harvest a small sample of your blood, isolate the PRP or PRF, and apply it during microneedling. The session takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the treatment areas.
At Aesthetic Assets, we use SkinPen and Rejuvapen, two of the most advanced microneedling devices on the market, to achieve optimal results for our clients. SkinPen and Rejuvapen use ultra-fine needles to create precise micro-injuries that stimulate collagen and elastin production, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin. SkinPen and Rejuvapen are FDA-cleared microneedling devices with customizable tips, ensuring optimal precision during the treatment. SkinPen and Rejuvapen ensure optimal results with no downtime or scarring.
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) can enhance the benefits of microneedling. PRP and PRF are derived from the patient’s blood, which is drawn and processed to isolate a concentrated amount of platelets, growth factors, and other bioactive molecules. These substances are applied topically into the treated area, where they promote tissue regeneration, collagen synthesis, and wound healing. Combining microneedling with PRP or PRF can improve skin texture, tone, and elasticity, ensuring faster and better results.
Potenza RF microneedling is versatile enough to address both delicate facial features and structural body zones:
Concerns
Treatment areas
100% Organic Collagen Stimulation
Because microneedling works by unlocking your body's natural healing abilities, all new collagen and elastin produced belong entirely to you—yielding soft, organic, and long-lasting improvements.
Safe for All Fitzpatrick Skin Types
Unlike certain light-based lasers or deep chemical peels that carry risk for darker skin tones, mechanical microneedling does not target melanin, making it completely safe for all skin types and tones.
Unmatched Topical Absorption
The micro-channels created during treatment act as direct pathways for high-performance topical add-ons—such as exosomes, PRP, or growth factors—boosting cellular uptake and accelerating recovery.
Minimal Downtime with High Versatility
Enjoy structural skin benefits without taking extended time off work. Most post-treatment flushing resolves within 24 to 48 hours.
You are likely an ideal candidate for microneedling if you are looking to smooth rough texture, fade acne scars, minimize enlarged pores, or soften early fine lines without surgical downtime. It is a fantastic option for women and men of all ages seeking a natural approach to long-term skin health.
Ideal candidates are in good overall health with an intact skin barrier. Microneedling is not recommended for individuals with active acne breakouts, open skin wounds, active eczema or psoriasis flares, or those taking isotretinoin (Accutane) within the past 6 months. During your consultation, our team will evaluate your skin condition to confirm if SkinPen® is right for you.
Microneedling is a safe and minimally invasive procedure with few side effects and no downtime. You may experience mild redness, swelling, and sensitivity following the treatment, but these side effects should subside within a few days. You may also notice flaking or peeling as the skin regenerates. To ensure optimal healing, follow our aftercare instructions carefully. Avoid sun exposure, use gentle skincare products, and stay hydrated to promote healing.
You can expect the initial results from your microneedling treatment within a few days, with continued improvement as collagen and elastin production increases. The number of sessions needed to achieve your desired results will depend on your skin concerns and goals.
For optimal results, we recommend a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Regular maintenance treatments may also be recommended to maintain your results over time.
Aesthetic Assets believes that healthy, beautiful skin is an asset that should be celebrated and nurtured.

Discomfort is minimal. We apply a medical-grade topical numbing cream for 20 to 30 minutes prior to your treatment. Most patients feel only mild vibration and light pressure during the procedure.
At-home rollers feature fixed, unsterilized needles that puncture skin at angled trajectories, causing micro-tears, scarring, and infection risks. FDA-cleared SkinPen® uses vertical needle entry at precise, adjustable depths under strict sterile conditions, delivering safe, clinically proven results.
While you will notice improved radiance after just one session, a series of 3 to 6 treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart is recommended for optimal correction of acne scars, deep lines, or texture irregularities.
Yes! Microneedling pairs exceptionally well with topical regenerative add-ons like exosomes, PRP, or PDRN, which absorb deeply through open micro-channels. It also serves as an excellent complement to injectable treatments like Botox and biostimulators.
We recommend waiting at least 24 hours post-treatment before applying makeup to ensure your micro-channels have closed completely and your skin barrier remains calm and protected.
