As you grow older, your skin gradually loses collagen and elastin fibers, leading to sagging skin, loss of elasticity, fine lines, wrinkles, and facial hollows. Microneedling is a simple in-office procedure that involves making thousands of micro-channels on the skin’s surface to catalyze your body’s natural collagen production capabilities. Microneedling essentially encourages your body to heal itself and reverse the signs of aging. Rejuvenate your skin with our microneedling in Tampa at Aspire Medspa & Beauty Bar.

About Microneedling
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is an unbelievable esthetic service that induces collagen production to stimulate an incredible anti-aging effect. We offer collagen PIN microneedling to patients in our community, so they can look and feel their best, no matter the age. Whether you are interested in microneedling to smooth your skin’s texture, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, or improve pigmentation, our experienced clinicians can help you unlock your best facial appearance.
Microneedling can offer profound results. It can improve skin texture and firmness, reduce sunspots and hyperpigmentation, induce hair regrowth, and improve the appearance of scars on the face and other parts of the body by breaking up scar tissue. Microneedling is an effective procedure that does not require a lengthy recovery period or long appointments. Most microneedling sessions take approximately 60 minutes, making them suitable for people with busy schedules.
How Does Microneedling Work?
Microneedling is a unique approach to skincare because it works by unlocking your skin’s natural ability to heal and rejuvenate your facial appearance. It involves making hundreds of tiny micro-injuries on the skin’s surface to trigger your body’s natural healing response, including elastin and collagen production. This process is a breakthrough for patients seeking to rejuvenate their facial appearance without invasive plastic surgeries or dermal fillers. Our microneedling in Tampa provides natural-looking results that boost your self-esteem.
Microneedling + PRP
Microneedling is an incredibly powerful skin rejuvenation and collagen induction therapy, but it works even better with PRP therapy. Platelet-rich plasmas are growth-factor-rich components derived from a small sample of your blood. The medical provider draws a small sample of your blood, spins it in a centrifuge, and isolates the golden-colored platelet-rich plasma, which contains a high concentration of growth factors. The PRP serum can boost the results of microneedling.
Growth factors are the body’s primary healing and growth components. When you’re injured, the growth factors in your blood rush to the damaged areas to stimulate blood clot formation and cellular regeneration. When applied to the facial skin after microneedling (when your skin is extremely receptive), the growth factors stimulate collagen production and skin cell regeneration, making your skin look softer, smoother, and firmer. PRP can improve the results of your microneedling treatment.

Your In-Office Microneedling Treatment
Your microneedling in Tampa is performed by our immensely talented cosmetic and medical providers. Our clinicians will examine your facial skin, discuss your goals, and curate personalized treatment plans that ensure optimal results. We will also inform you about your PRP treatment options, giving you a choice to boost the results with PRP. After curating a personalized treatment plan, your microneedling session begins.
Microneedling is a safe treatment that usually concludes within 30 to 45 minutes. The clinician will make thousands of micro-injuries on the skin’s surface using the specialized microneedling device. The micro-injuries will bolster your skin’s natural collagen production and skin cell regeneration capabilities. After the procedure, a soothing gel is applied to your facial skin to minimize post-treatment discomfort.
Side Effects of Microneedling
Microneedling doesn’t involve harsh side effects or complications. You may experience mild post-treatment redness, swelling, irritation, and pinpoint bleeding, but these side effects will dissipate after a few hours or days. You should avoid direct sunlight and exfoliants, but you can resume most of your daily activities immediately.
Microneedling Results
The results of microneedling gradually appear over several weeks and months. Your body will produce new collagen fibers over several months, thereby reversing the signs of aging on your face. Microneedling in Tampa provides cumulative results that improve over time. Most patients need 3 sessions for optimal results.
Microneedling FAQs
Is microneedling safe for all skin types?
Yes, microneedling is a versatile procedure suitable for all skin types because it doesn’t involve chemicals or lasers. However, our cosmetic providers will carefully examine your skin type to ensure the treatment is tailored to your skin concerns and conditions.
How many microneedling sessions are usually required for noticeable results?
Many patients notice improvements after just one session. However, we generally recommend three to six sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal and sustained results, depending on your specific skin concerns and goals.
Is microneedling painful?
Microneedling in Tampa involves minimal discomfort. While some patients describe the sensation as a light prickling, numbing creams are applied beforehand to enhance overall comfort.
Can I wear makeup immediately after microneedling?
It’s advisable to avoid makeup for at least 24 hours post-treatment to prevent skin irritation and allow the skin to heal and breathe effectively.
How long do the results of microneedling last?
The microneedling results can last several months, depending on individual skin types, the specific concerns addressed, and your skincare routine and lifestyle. We generally recommend regular maintenance sessions to further prolong and enhance the results.
