Microneedling At Gentle Dental Care in Menomonie, WI

Using microneedling treatments for skin enhancement

Home » Microneedling

At Gentle Care Dental, we know that beauty comes within, but it doesn’t hurt to have a little help, especially when skin imperfections become bothersome. We are excited to offer various skincare services to add to your next dental appointment to assist you in looking and feeling your best, which includes microneedling treatment for dark spots, fine lines and wrinkles, and other skin imperfections. Let’s look at this treatment and what makes it a reliable and effective way of addressing skin concerns for those in and around Arkansaw and Menomonie, Wisconsin.

What is microneedling?

Drs. Emily Andre and Frankie Thatcher describe micro-needling treatment as a skincare service that uses tiny needles to prick the skin and generate new collagen and tissue. This helps to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, minimize pores, and even out skin tone. This treatment is considered minimally invasive and typically requires little downtime.

What are the benefits of microneedling treatments at Gentle Care Dental?

  1. Improved skin texture and tone. As we age, our natural skin can become rough and uneven due to the accumulation of dead skin cells. Microneedling helps to exfoliate the top layer of skin, promoting a smoother and more even texture and tone.
  2. Reduced fine lines and wrinkles. The loss of collagen as we age can lead to the look of fine lines and wrinkles on our faces. By stimulating collagen production, microneedling can help reduce the appearance of these signs of aging.
  3. Minimized pores. Large pores are a common skin concern for many individuals. Micro-needling shrinks pore size and makes them less noticeable.
  4. Treating hyperpigmentation. Microneedling can also treat dark spots or even discoloration caused by sun damage, acne scars, or melasma.
  5. Suitable for all skin types. Unlike some other skincare treatments, microneedling is safe and effective for patients of all skin types and tones.
  6. Minimal downtime and discomfort. While everyone’s pain tolerance may vary, most local patients report minimal discomfort during and after the treatment. Downtime is also minimal, with some redness and mild swelling, which will typically subside within a few days.
