Microneedling in North Richland Hills

Microneedling revitalizes the skin by stimulating natural collagen and elastin production through micro-injuries to the skin. It’s commonly used to reduce acne scars, fine lines, and enlarged pores while improving skin tone and texture. By triggering the body’s healing process, microneedling helps restore smoother, firmer skin—making it an effective option for patients looking to address early signs of aging, scarring, and sun damage without surgery or harsh chemicals. Our dermatologist-led microneedling uses an advanced, FDA-approved device, SkinPen, that is safe for all skin types.

Microneedling Treatment

How Does it Work?

Microneedling uses a precision-controlled device equipped with sterile, single-use needles to create thousands of microchannels in the skin. These tiny, controlled injuries trigger the body’s natural healing response, stimulating new collagen and elastin growth. The result is firmer, more even skin over time.
Before the procedure begins, a topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort. The treatment typically takes less than an hour, and most patients resume normal activity within a day.

Safe, Supervised, and Effective Treatment

When performed by our Physician Assistant, microneedling is both safe and clinically effective. At Northstar Dermatology, we follow strict hygiene protocols and use medical-grade equipment to ensure optimal outcomes and patient safety.

Microneedling can help improve:

  • Acne scars
  • Skin texture and tone
  • Fine lines and early signs of aging
  • Enlarged pores
  • Hyperpigmentation and melasma

For more pronounced scarring or texture concerns, a customized series of treatments may be recommended to achieve lasting results.

Why At-Home Microneedling Isn't Worth the Risk

DIY microneedling tools like derma rollers might seem convenient, but they often fall short—and can even cause harm. These at-home devices don’t penetrate deeply enough to stimulate meaningful collagen production and carry a significant risk of infection due to poor sanitation and improper technique.

In contrast, professional microneedling performed in a clinical setting ensures:

  • Medical-grade equipment
  • Controlled needle depth for effective penetration
  • Sterile, single-use cartridges
  • Supervision by licensed dermatology professionals

The safety and precision of in-office microneedling simply can’t be replicated at home.

What to Expect After Treatment

Most patients experience mild redness and sensitivity for 24–48 hours after treatment, similar to a mild sunburn. As the skin heals, you’ll notice gradual improvements in texture, tone, and overall appearance. Full results typically appear within a few weeks and continue to improve with each session.
