Can Skin Texture Be Restored with Microneedling Treatments?
&srotate=0)
Unlike dark spots or redness, a rough or uneven skin texture can’t be concealed with makeup alone and — in some cases — is actually made worse or more noticeable when covered by makeup. Not only that, but many topical skin products are ineffective when it comes to smoothing out a textured complexion. At Motakef Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Saba Motakef and our dedicated team of Anaheim Hills, CA aesthetic providers perform a range of skin rejuvenation treatments to help address texture, discoloration, and other common concerns. Here, you’ll discover how one of our most popular treatments — microneedling —may be the solution you’ve been searching for to transform your rough skin into a smoother, silkier, more radiant new complexion you can feel confident about.
Why is my skin so rough?
Scaly, rough, or bumpy skin texture can be the result of many different factors, including:
- Acne
- Clogged pores
- Dryness
- Genetics
- Sun damage
- Scarring
- Irritation
- Oil, dirt, and debris buildup
There may also be underlying factors contributing to the issues that are causing your rough skin texture. During your initial consultation for skin rejuvenation in Orange County, our knowledgeable team will assess your skin and review your health and medical history to determine what may be causing your skin concerns. Based on this information, we’ll be able to recommend an appropriate treatment for you. For many patients, microneedling is a fantastic option for smoothing and evening out skin texture.
How does microneedling help give you smoother skin?
Microneedling is a highly versatile and rejuvenating skin treatment that works to stimulate the body’s natural healing and regenerative properties to diminish the appearance of imperfections and signs of aging. During the treatment, a roller device equipped with tiny needles is passed over the skin, making a series of micro-injuries. In response, the body begins the healing process, effectively replacing damaged skin cells with new and healthy layers of skin.
In some cases, we may recommend the addition of radiofrequency (RF) energy to your microneedling session. In RF microneedling treatments, targeted energy is delivered to the deeper layers of skin at the same time the micro-injuries are being made on the surface. This exciting combination of technologies helps to build collagen supplies for a firmer, more youthful look while addressing surface imperfections simultaneously.
What else can microneedling do for your skin?
While many patients pursue microneedling to achieve a smoother skin texture, that’s not all that’s possible with this popular treatment. Some of the most common skin imperfections that can be dramatically improved or even corrected with microneedling or RF microneedling include:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Enlarged pores
- Sun damage
- Discoloration
- Hyperpigmentation
- Redness
- Dry skin
- Oily skin
- Scaly skin
- Rough skin
- Uneven skin tone or texture
- Dull skin
Whether you’ve got an array of skin concerns you’d like to address all at once or are primarily concerned about smoothing out your skin’s texture, microneedling may be right for you.
