Powerfully Regenerative
Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin treatment that uses fine needles to create controlled microchannels in the skin. These micro-injuries prompt the skin's natural repair response, supporting the production of collagen and elastin — two proteins that contribute to firmness, resilience, and smoother texture.
Because microneedling works by triggering the skin's own repair response, it can be a versatile option for improving surface texture and visible signs of aging. Our clinic offers different dermal needling tiers based on your needs and the products incorporated into treatment. Depending on your treatment plan, these may include vitamin C, hyaluronic acid (HA), exosomes, or platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Our skilled clinicians will assess your skin and recommend the most appropriate approach for your goals. Whether you want to soften fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin texture and tone, or reduce the appearance of acne scars and hyperpigmentation, treatment can be customized to your skin's needs.
Needling Your Way to Perfect Skin
For Louisville patients looking to address multiple skin concerns, microneedling can help improve the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, uneven texture, hyperpigmentation, and sun-damaged skin. Treatment can also be paired with options such as PRP or PRF when appropriate as part of a customized rejuvenation plan.

Collagen Boosting
Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin treatment that uses a specialized device to create controlled microchannels in the skin. Depending on your goals and treatment plan, microneedling may be performed on its own or combined with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) or Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF).
The treatment typically begins with applying a numbing cream to your skin to minimize discomfort. The microneedling device is then passed over the treatment area, creating controlled microchannels that trigger the skin's healing response and support collagen and elastin production. After the procedure, you can expect some redness and possibly mild swelling, but these effects should subside within a few days. Over time, the skin can appear smoother, brighter, and more even in texture.
If your treatment plan includes PRP or PRF with microneedling, a small amount of your blood is drawn and processed to concentrate platelet-rich components. Your provider can then incorporate the prepared PRP or PRF with the microneedling treatment according to the selected protocol. This approach is intended to support the skin's repair response. Recovery is generally similar to microneedling alone, with temporary redness or mild swelling that should improve within a few days.
Smaller Pores
The timeline for microneedling results can vary depending on factors such as the severity of your skin concerns, the number of treatments you have, and whether your treatment plan includes options such as PRP or PRF.
Additional Reading
Some patients begin noticing smoother texture within the first week or two after a microneedling treatment. Improvement can continue over the following weeks and months as collagen remodeling progresses, gradually supporting firmer and more even-looking skin.
A series of several microneedling treatments spaced several weeks apart is commonly recommended, although the appropriate schedule varies with your skin, concerns, and goals. Everyone responds differently, so your provider will recommend a treatment plan based on how your skin progresses.
Smoother Skin
Your skin begins its recovery process immediately after treatment. You may experience redness, sensitivity, or mild swelling in the treated areas for a few days, which typically improves on its own. To support healing and reduce the risk of irritation or pigment changes, it's important to follow the post-treatment instructions provided by your Scout Aesthetics provider.
Microneedling can be appropriate for many skin types, but candidacy depends on your skin condition, medical history, medications, healing history, and whether there is active irritation or infection. Your provider will evaluate your skin before recommending treatment.
Yes. Microneedling may be combined with PRP or PRF or planned alongside other skin treatments when appropriate. Your provider will recommend the right combination and timing based on your skin, concerns, and treatment goals.
Microneedling can help improve the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, enlarged-looking pores, uneven texture, hyperpigmentation, and other signs of sun damage or aging. Your treatment plan will be tailored to the concerns you want to address.
The number of treatments varies by skin concern and desired outcome. Many patients benefit from a series of several sessions spaced several weeks apart, followed by maintenance treatments as recommended by their provider.
Downtime is usually limited. Redness, sensitivity, and mild swelling can occur for a few days after treatment. Your provider will give you aftercare instructions and let you know when to resume your normal skincare routine and other activities.
Some patients notice smoother-looking skin within the first week or two, but results continue to develop as the skin produces and remodels collagen over the following weeks and months. A series of treatments may provide more noticeable improvement.
A topical numbing cream is typically applied before treatment to improve comfort. Most patients describe the procedure as a prickling or vibrating sensation rather than significant pain, although sensitivity varies by treatment area and individual.
Microneedling is generally not performed directly over active, inflamed, or infected breakouts. If active acne is your primary concern, your provider may recommend addressing it first. Scout Aesthetics also offers a dedicated acne treatment program in Louisville.
