Microneedling Specialist

Microneedling in Southlake

Microneedling is a clinically guided treatment that encourages skin renewal by activating your body’s natural healing process. At Northstar Dermatology, our Southlake patients turn to microneedling for clearer, smoother skin without invasive procedures. This treatment effectively softens the look of acne scars, refines texture, and minimizes wrinkles by jumpstarting collagen production.

Microneedling Procedure

How Does It Work?

The procedure uses a specialized device equipped with sterile, disposable needles to create micro-channels in the skin’s surface. These channels signal the body to begin repair—boosting collagen and elastin for long-term skin improvement. A topical anesthetic is applied prior to the procedure to reduce discomfort.

What Microneedling Helps Improve:

Post-acne scarring and discoloration
Rough or uneven skin texture
Fine lines and early signs of aging
Enlarged or visible pores

Why Choose a Dermatologist for Microneedling

Unlike at-home rollers or unregulated medspa tools, dermatologist-administered microneedling offers safe, evidence-based results. Our clinical environment uses FDA-cleared equipment and sterile techniques, minimizing the risk of infection and maximizing effectiveness.

Skip the Risk of At-Home Microneedling

DIY microneedling tools rarely reach the necessary skin depth and often lack proper sanitization—raising the chance of skin damage or infection. At Northstar Dermatology, every treatment is personalized and performed under expert supervision for visible, safe results. If performed at home, patients can run the risk of the following.

Infection
Scarring
Skin damage
Delayed healing
Bruising

Post-Treatment Expectations

You may notice mild redness and sensitivity for a day or two following treatment. Over the next few weeks, your skin will become firmer and more radiant as collagen renewal takes place. Multiple sessions may be recommended for deeper imperfections.

Take Your Skin Results Further

While microneedling improves collagen production and skin texture, some concerns respond best to a more comprehensive approach. We often combine treatments to address multiple layers of the skin for more noticeable, long-term improvement.

Chemical Peels

These treatments remove dull, damaged surface cells to reveal brighter, smoother skin underneath. They are especially useful for uneven tone, sun damage, and mild discoloration, and can help refine the results achieved with microneedling.

VI Peels

VI Peels are a more intensive option designed to target stubborn concerns like acne, melasma, and deeper pigmentation. When incorporated into a treatment plan, they can amplify skin renewal and deliver more dramatic correction.

Botox

Microneedling focuses on skin quality, while Botox targets the muscle activity that causes expression lines. Using both treatments together allows for a more complete facial refresh—improving both texture and wrinkles. Every patient’s skin is different, and the most effective approach often involves a customized combination of treatments.
