Microneedling: The TikTok Trend You Can Trust
If you’ve been scrolling down that rabbit hole known as TikTok lately, you’ve probably noticed the buzz around microneedling. From glowing skin transformations to insider tips, this treatment is taking social media by storm. At Bare Beauty, we’re no strangers to microneedling. In fact, we’ve been offering it for years—and we’re always innovating. About three years ago, we upgraded to RF Microneedling (think Morpheus 8), and now, the big game changer is the advancement in serums. Pairing microneedling with a tailored skincare routine will give amplified results.
But as ever in the beauty world, not all serums are created equal. Some come with hefty price tags and vague ingredient lists. After much research, we’ve carefully chosen medical-grade serums that are backed by scientific studies and sourced directly from trusted medical suppliers. Its more about the ingredients than the fancy packaging.
Our choice is the V-Tech Regenerative Super Serum. It’s supported by clinical research, and you can learn more about its benefits on Dr. Kara’s blog here. We’re also introducing targeted serums like Salmon DNA ampoules and Hyaluronic Acid, allowing us to tailor treatments to specific skin concerns.
To take things even further, we’ve invested in a state-of-the-art skin analysis machine. This means you’ll be able to see your results in detail, with clear before-and-after evidence of your skin’s transformation. If you’ve ever been curious about this treatment its a good time to explore it! Below is the more in depth knowledge of Microneedling and the things you should know before signing up for a course.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment designed to rejuvenate your skin from the inside out. A device with ultra-fine needles creates controlled micro-injuries on the surface of your skin. At Bare Beauty we can go to a depth of between 0.5 and 1.75 . You only need to penetrate the skin to the stratum corneum at 0.01-0.02 for it to be effective. You DO NOT NEED to see blood These micro-injuries trigger your body’s natural healing process, boosting collagen and elastin production—the secret to smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.
There are two reasons to use microneedling:
To increase the results from serums and skincare products and to stimulate growth factors to encourage collagen production
What Can Microneedling Help With?
Microneedling is incredibly versatile and suitable for people of all ages. It can address a wide range of skin concerns, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars and other scars
- Hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone
- Large pores
- Rough texture and stretch marks
- Aging on Back of Hands
Why Is Everyone Talking About It?
Microneedling delivers noticeable results with minimal downtime, especially when combined with the right serums and LED light therapy. It’s perfect for busy lifestyles, with many clients reporting visible skin improvements after just a few sessions. The treatment can be tailored to address specific problem areas and suit different budgets. And those TikTok-worthy before-and-after transformations—well they’re hard to ignore!
What Happens During a Microneedling Treatment?
Consultation
We’ll discuss your skin goals and ensure microneedling is the right fit for you. During the consultation, we’ll determine which serums are best suited to help you achieve the maximum benefit. This is where our Magic Mirror Skin Analysis proves invaluable .
The Magic Mirror provides an accurate facial analysis, highlighting problem areas and giving us a clear starting point for your skin journey. This serves as your “before” picture. Once you’ve completed your course of treatments, we’ll take a follow-up picture to showcase your results.
This process is our pledge to you—ensuring that your money is well spent and your skin is in safe, professional hands.
Preparation
Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed before we begin. At Bare Beauty, we typically don’t use numbing cream. Through extensive testing with different skin types prior to launching any new treatment, we’ve found that numbing cream isn’t usually necessary. However, if we felt it were needed, we would certainly provide it. Instead, we prefer to work with you during the treatment, ensuring you’re fully aware of the process and comfortable throughout.
The Treatment
Using our FDA-approved microneedling device, we’ll focus on areas needing extra attention, while incorporating our top-grade serums for enhanced results. If you choose to add in LED Light therapy we will pop you under the light to finish off your treatment.
Aftercare
Soothing serums are applied post-treatment, leaving your skin calm and hydrated. Expect mild redness for 24-48 hours, easily managed with tinted SPF or minimal makeup.
