Microneedling at Azalea MedSpa
Microneedling is a non-invasive and highly effective method for reinvigorating the skin’s natural growth factors so that it naturally heals itself from the inside out. As a result, wrinkles, fine lines, dark spots, stretch marks, and recessed scars are dramatically reduced, and the skin takes on a gorgeous healthy glow in a simple procedure with little to no downtime. At Azalea MedSpa in Lenexa microneedling is offered with PRP as well as dermaplaning, giving you access to a full range of elegant, non-invasive options for restoring your skin’s most youthful, beautiful glow.
What is Microneedling?
Professional microneedling devices work by rapidly stamping a grouping of tiny needles into the skin to create micro-injuries. In response, the skin boosts its collagen and elastin production, causing it to resurface and rejuvenate itself from within. Fine lines, wrinkles, areas of hyperpigmentation, and even depressed acne scars are lifted, smoothed, and lightened for all-over rejuvenation. To provide you with many options for achieving your most refreshed complexion, we also offer microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), as well as dermaplaning.

What are the benefits of microneedling?
Microneedling offers many benefits:
Your Microneedling Consultation
Not sure if microneedling is right for you? Feel free to schedule a consultation with one of our friendly and highly-experienced aesthetic professionals to learn whether microneedling can help you achieve your aesthetic goals. We can also educate you about options for combining microneedling with PRP or dermaplaning to achieve optimal results. We look forward to providing you with a relaxing experience that leaves you looking and feeling beautifully rejuvenated.
Your Microneedling Procedure
A microneedling procedure typically takes around 30 minutes to complete. However, the length of your session can depend on the treatment area and other factors, such as whether you opt to have numbing cream applied beforehand. Your skin will first be cleansed, and numbing cream may be applied for your comfort. During microneedling Lenexa aesthetic specialists will then carefully move the device across your skin, where it will rapidly make a series of tiny, invisible punctures. A serum will be applied—or, if chosen, PRP—which will be absorbed efficiently through the microchannels created in the skin for an added boost.
Microneedling Results
Within a couple of weeks of your microneedling treatment, your skin should appear smoother, brighter, and more even in tone and texture. For optimal results, opt to schedule multiple treatments or combine microneedling with additional therapies. We are happy to schedule a consultation for you to discuss your options and curate the perfect treatment regimen to give you your most resilient, youthful-looking skin.
Microneedling Recovery and Aftercare
You may experience slight redness and skin sensitivity for a day or two after your appointment but it should not require any downtime from work or other activities. Follow all aftercare instructions carefully to protect your skin as it heals from the micro-injuries caused by the needles and regrows a new, healthier top layer. This may include avoiding direct sun exposure, wearing sunscreen, and foregoing skincare products that contain strong chemicals for a period of time. Your results will begin to show up within a few days and improve over the next couple of weeks as the collagen and elastin in your skin work to rebuild smoother, more radiant skin.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Microneedling is generally safe for all skin types and tones. However, it may not be recommended if you have active acne, eczema, or other skin conditions that could be irritated by the microneedling device. Our expert providers will ask about your medical profile to help you determine if microneedling is safe for you.
At-home microneedling devices may help you achieve modest improvements in the texture of your skin. However, professional devices use a precision stamping motion to create a much larger number of precise micro-punctures for more dramatic results. Skillful treatment application by an aesthetic professional also supports more lasting, beautiful outcomes.
Microneedling is a non-invasive procedure with a relatively low risk of adverse side effects. However, there is a small risk of skin irritation or exacerbation of existing conditions such as cold sores, eczema, or acne. It is not recommended that you have microneedling during an active flare of an existing condition.
Microneedling can be combined with a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment to further boost your skin’s rejuvenating powers. A small sample of your blood is taken and then processed to create a growth-factor-rich solution that is applied to your skin directly after microneedling. If you are interested in adding PRP to your microneedling session, your Azalea aesthetic specialist can help you decide on the best treatment for your needs.
We also offer dermaplaning, a treatment that uses a medical-grade scalpel to precisely and gently plane the epidermis to remove peach fuzz and effectively exfoliate your skin. Ask about adding dermaplaning to your microneedling procedure or having it performed as a stand-alone treatment for smooth, exfoliated skin. You will notice an immediate improvement in the smoothness and softness of your skin, and makeup will go on more easily and uniformly.
