What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling stimulates your skin’s natural healing process to restore a smoother, firmer appearance without surgery or fillers. At Hove Center for Facial Plastic Surgery, we use the Secret PRO system, which combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy to amplify results. The system can also incorporate CO₂ resurfacing when deeper correction is needed.
This treatment can improve:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars and surgical scarring
- Sun damage and hyperpigmentation
- Stretch marks and uneven texture
- Enlarged pores
Microneedling is safe for most skin types and can be used on the face, neck, décolletage, and other areas of the body.
What to Expect During Your Microneedling Treatment
Microneedling Aftercare and Recovery
There is no formal downtime after microneedling, but your skin will need time to recover. Temporary redness, swelling, or tightness is common and typically resolves within a few days.
To support healing and protect your results, we will provide detailed aftercare instructions. These usually include:
Avoid wearing makeup for the first 24 hours
Apply sunscreen and avoid direct sun exposure
Use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer
Skip hot showers, workouts, and heat-based treatments for 48 hours
As your skin heals, collagen and elastin levels increase, revealing firmer, more radiant skin. Most patients at our Main Line office notice improvements within a few weeks. For optimal results, we typically recommend three treatments spaced one month apart, followed by occasional touch-ups to maintain your glow.
