Microneedling is a treatment trusted by medical professionals for several concerns, such as hair loss, fine lines, wrinkles and scars. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a powerful moisture-binding serum. As microneedling stimulates collagen and hyaluronic acid hydrates the skin, this combination creates a highly effective treatment for skin renewal.

The Process of Microneedling With Hyaluronic Acid
Microneedling is also referred to as collagen induction therapy (CIT). This treatment uses a microscopic needle to make tiny punctures in the skin. This process harnesses the body’s natural healing ability and stimulates new collagen production.
Hyaluronic acid is a substance that naturally occurs in the body. It absorbs and binds to water, which moisturizes the skin and gives it a fuller appearance. As we age, our body produces less hyaluronic acid. Adding hyaluronic acid to microneedling quickens the cellular repair response, resulting in a smoother texture and plumper skin. The hyaluronic acid also helps soothe the skin post-treatment and shortens downtime.
What Are the Benefits of Hyaluronic Acid Microneedling?
Microneedling is a powerful treatment. When combined with hyaluronic acid, it produces optimal results. Some of the benefits include:
- More even skin pigmentation
- Hydrated skin for longer

How Many Microneedling Treatments Will You Need?
The number of treatments depends on several factors, including the area you’re treating, your skin and your lifestyle. Some people may need several treatments to see results, and others may need only a few. Microneedling treatments should be 4 to 6 weeks apart. The skin cells need time to regenerate so that results can be seen.
