What to Expect from Your Microneedling Session

Microneedling typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the area treated. A numbing cream is applied beforehand for comfort, and most patients describe the sensation as mild and tolerable. You may experience slight redness and sensitivity for a day or two, similar to a sunburn.

You can return to most daily activities within 24–48 hours, making this a convenient option for busy patients.
