Contact UsWhat is Microneedling?
When home skin care products are no longer effective, but you aren't ready for surgery, try nonsurgical treatments to rejuvenate the skin, such as microneedling. Medical aesthetician Vivian Mokwa is pleased to perform microneedling using SkinPen® (also known as collagen induction therapy) at our office in Miami, FL. SkinPen is a state-of-the-art precision handpiece that can be adjusted for your unique needs to deliver the results you want. Using a number of fine-gauge needles, the SkinPen makes thousands of "micro" cuts in your skin, triggering your body's natural production of collagen and elastin, two nutrients that improve the overall health and appearance of your complexion. Easily combined with other treatments, such as serums or PRP (platelet-rich plasma), microneedling can help reduce pores, scars, and stretch marks. Make an appointment for a consultation at Elite Styles Salon and Med Spa to hear more about the results of microneedling and ways to personalize your treatment for your skin needs and goals.

Am I A Candidate for Microneedling?
You may be a candidate for microneedling if you experience slight or mild skin problems, like rough skin texture or low elasticity. Collagen induction therapy treatments may also minimize the appearance of stretch marks, scars, and pores. You need to be willing to wait a while before seeing benefits from your microneedling treatment since collagen and elastin require some time to have an effect on the complexion, but you will develop results that look natural and gain healthier, stronger skin.
How Does SkinPen Microneedling Work?
The SkinPen microneedling procedure takes place in one of our office procedure rooms and typically lasts between 40 – 60 minutes. Numbing cream can be provided upon request to ensure patient comfort, although most patients experience mild or no discomfort. Before beginning the microneedling process, the targeted area of the skin is thoroughly cleaned. The SkinPen handpiece is then applied evenly over the area.
After the microneedling is finished, a topical treatment, such as PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or a serum infused with vitamins, may be applied. This helps enhance the absorption of nutrients into the skin for deeper penetration. To soothe and protect the treated skin, a moisturizer suitable for your specific skin type is gently massaged in. Additionally, sunscreen is applied since your skin will be sensitive following the procedure. Typically, noticeable results can be observed after the first session, and best longing results after the fourth treatment session.

What to Expect After Microneedling
It's common to experience mild swelling and redness after a microneedling session, but this should fade after some time. It usually takes about 1 – 2 months to see results after a microneedling treatment as your body's collagen and elastin go to work revitalizing your skin. You should plan to undergo about follow-up sessions every 4 – 6 weeks for optimal outcomes and long-term skin benefits.

About UsMicroneedling FAQs
How much does microneedling cost?
In your initial consultation, Dr. Mokwa will analyze your skin and develop your personalized treatment plan. Once this is done, she can discuss your treatment costs and what to expect during the procedure. Elite Styles Salon and Med Spa often offer specials on treatment packages, so ask about current deals during your appointment.
What exactly is microneedling?
Microneedling, or collagen induction therapy, is a non-surgical procedure to rejuvenate your skin. Collagen is a fibrous protein that helps keep your skin smooth, supple, and firm. Eventually, your collagen stores deplete, your skin becomes thin, and you lose elasticity. Microneedling creates small skin wounds. These micro-injuries force your skin to generate new skin cell growth and increase collagen production. After a short recovery period, your skin is healthier, firmer, and brighter.
Can I combine other treatments with microneedling?
During the microneedling process, channels are created that make it easier for treatments to penetrate the deeper layers. That's why microneedling is often combined with other skin treatments, like special serums or platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Microneedling with PRP has become known as a vampire facial. In your initial consultation, Dr. Mokwa can talk about what treatments would enhance your microneedling and which can help your skin's health.
How long does a microneedling session last?
Each microneedling session at Elite Styles Salon and Med Spa is tailored to the individual's skin condition and the areas being treated, typically lasting between 30 minutes to an hour. Dr. Mokwa will provide a more accurate timeframe during your consultation, ensuring a treatment plan that aligns with your specific needs and goals.
What is the recommended number of microneedling sessions for optimal results?
The optimal number of microneedling sessions varies depending on your skin's condition and your aesthetic goals. Generally, Dr. Mokwa recommends a series of 3 to 6 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart, to achieve significant improvement in skin texture and firmness. During your initial consultation, she will outline a personalized treatment plan that best suits your needs.
Are there any immediate side effects or restrictions following a microneedling session?
After a microneedling session, it's common to experience mild redness, swelling, and a sensation similar to a sunburn, which typically subsides within a few days. Dr. Mokwa advises avoiding direct sun exposure, rigorous exercise, and swimming for at least 24 to 48 hours post-treatment to allow the skin to start the healing process effectively. She will provide a detailed list of post-treatment care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.
Will I see results immediately after microneedling?
Not quite — microneedling is a process, and your skin needs time to renew itself. While some people notice a slight glow and plumper skin within a few days, the real magic happens over the next few weeks as collagen production ramps up. If you're treating fine lines, scars, or uneven texture, expect to see gradual improvements over the course of several weeks to months.
