Microneedling is the foundation of long-term skin investment — the treatment that fixes texture, softens scars, fades discoloration, and gives you the kind of glow that lasts. Done with a medical-grade device by a clinician, not a dermaroller at home.
Microneedling uses an FDA-cleared device with sterile micro-needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. Your body responds with a wound-healing cascade that produces new collagen and elastin — the proteins that give skin its bounce and smoothness. Add a topical layer like exosomes and the channels become a delivery system for skin-changing actives.
“Microneedling is the most underrated treatment on my menu. Done in a series, with the right add-on, it is the closest thing in aesthetics to actually growing new skin. It is what I do on myself.”
Certified on medical-grade pen devices · advanced microneedling protocol certified
Microneedling uses a medical-grade pen device to create thousands of precisely controlled, microscopic channels in the upper layers of skin. Those channels trigger the body's wound-healing response — new collagen, new elastin, and a remodeling of the skin's structural matrix — without the downtime of laser resurfacing. Studies have consistently shown 400% increases in collagen production after a series of three to four treatments. It is one of the few aesthetic treatments that genuinely improves the skin rather than just covering it up.
Microneedling has strong evidence behind it for acne scars (especially the rolling and boxcar types), enlarged pores, fine lines, uneven skin texture, dull skin tone, hyperpigmentation that lives in the deeper layers, and stretch marks. It is also widely used as a maintenance and glow treatment by patients who do not have a specific condition to fix and just want their skin to look like it did five years ago. What it does not treat well: deep ice-pick acne scars (those need a punch excision or a more aggressive laser), active cystic acne (you do not want to needle that), and severe rosacea flare.
Microneedling channels close within a few hours, which means the post-treatment window is the highest-absorption period your skin will see all year. Marissa offers an Epicutis serum protocol as an add-on — medical-grade peptide and lipid serums applied during and immediately after the session. The micro-channels carry actives deeper than topical-only application could ever reach, and the post-treatment kit extends the work for the next 72 hours. The combination consistently outperforms microneedling alone.
A single session takes about 60–75 minutes including topical numbing. The actual needling phase is about 20 minutes. Most patients are slightly pink for 24–48 hours and back to makeup-ready by day three. For results that actually hold, a series of three to four sessions spaced four to six weeks apart is standard. For acne scarring or deep texture work, a longer series may be recommended. Maintenance after the initial series is one session every three to four months. Memberships make this far more affordable — ask about the Boujee Glow Club at your consultation.
What you do in the first 24 hours after microneedling matters as much as the treatment itself. Marissa sends every patient home with a sealed Epicutis post-treatment kit — medical-grade serums designed specifically for the post-needling window. No actives (retinols, acids, vitamin C) for five days. No direct sun for seven. SPF every day, forever. The micro-channels close fast, but the collagen rebuild keeps working for 90 days. Trust the timeline.
