As the seasons change and summer comes to an end, your skin may be showing signs of everything it experienced over the warmer months; sun exposure, heat, sweat, dehydration, and environmental stressors. Fall is the perfect time to reset your skincare routine and give your skin some extra attention.
One of our favorite treatments for a fall skin refresh at Blondie Salon & Spa is microneedling.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a professional skin treatment that uses a device with very fine needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. This process encourages the skin's natural renewal process and stimulates collagen and elastin production.
The result? With a proper treatment plan, microneedling can help improve the appearance of fine lines, uneven texture, enlarged pores, acne scarring, and overall skin tone, leaving skin looking smoother, firmer, and more radiant.
Why Start in the Fall?
Fall is an especially great time to begin a microneedling series because many people naturally spend less time in direct sunlight compared with the summer months.
After microneedling, your skin can be more sensitive to environmental factors, particularly sun exposure. Protecting your skin with a broad-spectrum SPF is essential year-round, but limiting excessive sun exposure is especially important while your skin is recovering.
Starting your treatments in the fall also gives your skin time to work through its natural remodeling process over the following weeks and months. Microneedling results aren't an overnight transformation, the skin needs time to produce new collagen and gradually improve.
One Treatment or a Series?
While you may notice a healthy-looking glow following a treatment, microneedling is typically most effective as part of a personalized series.
Your skin continues changing after your appointment as collagen production and skin remodeling take place. A series of treatments spaced appropriately apart can provide a more comprehensive approach to addressing your individual skin goals.
At Blondie, your esthetician can help determine a treatment plan based on your skin, concerns, and desired results.
What Can Microneedling Help With?
Microneedling may be a great option if you're looking to improve the appearance of:
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Uneven skin texture
• Enlarged pores
• Acne scarring
• Dull or lackluster skin
• Uneven-looking skin tone
• Loss of firmness
Every person's skin is different, which is why a professional consultation is an important part of determining whether microneedling is appropriate for you.
