MICRONEEDLING FOR ACNE SCARS
Acne scars are traditionally difficult to treat particularly the ice pick scars. Many patients have undergone strong laser treatments to help improve the skin texture. Recent studies comparing microneedling to laser treatments have shown that microneedling for acne scars show equal or better improvement than laser alone. Microneedling also requires less downtime than other more invasive lasers.
IMPROVE HYPERPIGMENTATION
Are those blotches on your face driving you crazy? Years of sun exposure or brown spots left behind from popping pimples can leave our skin tone looking uneven and unhealthy. Beautiful, young, radiant skin is typically even in tone and texture. If your skin has been damaged from the sun or years of acne, then microneedling can help. Microneedling helps improve skin discoloration by stimulating collagen and helping to slough dead skin on the surface exposing new less damaged skin. Microneedling can be combined with hyperpigmentation cream or other hyperpigmentation products that further help reduce the visible spots and prevent new ones from forming.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the side effects of microneedling?
What does my skin look like after a treatment? After the procedure, your skin will show signs of redness and will appear similar to a moderate sunburn. There may be some slight swelling. The redness and swelling usually subside in 24-48 hours. By day 3, the skin takes on a pink color, but there is minimal evidence that the procedure has taken place. The skin may feel tight, dry or sensitive to the touch for the first 3 days.
Is microneedling painful?
No. The topical numbing cream we apply makes the treatment very comfortable. You may feel a vibration sensation during the treatment, similar to an electric toothbrush.
How many sessions will I need?
That depends on the client, and the degree of correction desired. This is best determined during your initial consultation. We may suggest a session every 3-4 weeks for 4-6 months for optimal results. Continued improvement is then seen up to 6-8 months after the last treatment due to ongoing collagen growth and remodeling. Clients may want to update the treatment every 6-12 months thereafter.
What is the aftercare for microneedling treatments?
You should wear SPF 30+ sunblock every day for at least 10 days after the treatment. You can return to your regular makeup routine after 2-3 days once the skin is nearly back to normal.
Is there anyone who cannot get microneedling?
This treatment should NOT be used on active acne, severe rosacea, active skin infections, keloid scars, actinic keratosis or any skin cancers, eczema, psoriasis, or sebaceous hyperplasia. Clients with a history of cold sores (fever blisters) may want to pre-treat with anti-viral antibiotics to reduce the risk of an outbreak. This treatment depends on the wound healing process for its benefits, so it is not recommended if you have diabetes, have an impaired immune system, or are taking immune-suppressive medications due to an increase in infection risk. Clients on blood thinners may have increased pinpoint bleeding or bruising. Clients who have had Botox should wait at least 14 days, and clients who have had fillers should wait 28 days before having microneedling.
What Our Clients Are Saying

Natalie is Pro!
Flash forward to beginning of 2024, I required electrolysis again for gender affirming bottom surgery. This time, I wanted to have anesthesia as obviously it's a very sensitive area to receive hair removal. Each time I had a session, Valeria's team of nurses were well-trained and attentive to what I needed as they did my Lidocaine injections. Valeria performed the actual hair removal, taking her time and being open to questions (as I am a blabbermouth during my sessions!). In addition, I got to know from her more about the business and why she started.
It truly meant the world to me when she told me she wanted to purposefully help transgender patients receive hair removal because she recognized a disparity in the availability of electrologists to do that type of work. The website is very upfront and affirming about being a safe space for transgender clients. That's why I felt comfortable going back.
Furthermore, given I was receiving these second set of sessions for surgery, I went through my insurance to get coverage, but I was continually denied. Valeria has been transparent and helpful in sending and resending invoices so that my insurance company will accept cost-sharing of my electrolysis sessions. It has been one of the hardest processes emotionally and financially I've had to go through, and she did not make it any harder for me. She kept asking me how the insurance dilemma is being managed, and during one of our sessions, she even was on a phone call I started with customer service as she did my electrolysis. Eventually, my insurance paid out, and I am currently as of the date of this post trying to get them to fund my remaining sessions.
I definitely recommend going to Electrolysis 100% Permanent Hair Removal & Skin Care. I have my bottom surgery in five weeks, and I am beyond grateful for the support and care I received.

I’m slowly working my way towards smooth, hair-free skin. Electrolysis is a time commitment and a costly process but Valeria is great about helping you understand your options to get the best result. The entire team is knowledgeable and takes the time to thoroughly explain every aspect of the process. My questions are always answered with patience and expertise which I really appreciate.
Electrolysis can be painful but thankfully they offer lidocaine injections to help ease the discomfort. This is a game changer for me! With lidocaine I can endure longer sessions, making progress a bit quicker than if I were to go without. If you're considering electrolysis, I highly recommend checking out Electrolysis 100%. Between the service and the added comfort of lidocaine injections, I think they’re the best in the business.
Once I went for my initial appointment, the staff was overly friendly and constantly checked on how I was feeling.
Would heavily recommend!
