Smoother texture and softer scars that hold up on camera and in person. SkinPen microneedling from your Newport Beach nurses, scheduled so the one day of downtime lands where nobody sees it.
Newport Beach Microneedling at a Glance
Texture That Reads Well in Every Light
Microneedling puts your own collagen back to work. Using the FDA-cleared SkinPen device, your provider creates controlled micro-channels that prompt the skin to rebuild itself, smoothing acne scars, refining pores, and firming texture from within. It is one of the most studied treatments in aesthetics, and one of the most honest: about a day of redness, then steady improvement that compounds over a series. At our Newport Beach center, every session is delivered by a registered nurse, Brittnee Stasiewski or Carolyn Dickey, who tailors depth and plan to your skin.
- Your own collagen, rebuilt
- FDA-cleared SkinPen device
- Strong on acne scars
- About a day of downtime
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling is collagen induction therapy. We use SkinPen, the first FDA-cleared microneedling device and among the most studied on the market, with adjustable depth so the treatment can go exactly as deep as each zone of your face needs, and no deeper.
How Microneedling Works
The device creates controlled micro-channels in the skin, which triggers the release of growth factors and sets off a rebuild of collagen and elastin. The channels close within hours; the renewal continues for weeks, which is why results build over the series.
Built Around Your Skin
Your Newport Beach nurse adjusts needle depth zone by zone, chooses the serum applied during treatment, and can add a PRP upgrade when your goals call for it. Timing matters too: if a wedding or a camera-facing week is coming up, Brittnee or Carolyn will map your series so each session’s day of redness falls well clear of it.

What to Expect at Your Microneedling Newport Beach Appointment
From check-in at our Newport Beach center to your last pass of serum, here is how a microneedling visit runs. No surprises, start to finish.
Your You Review
Your complimentary You Review is where your nurse sets needle depth and session count. Weighing a straight series against microneedling with PRP? That gets decided here too.

Before
Preparation
Stop retinoids and exfoliants several days before your session and arrive cleansed. We apply numbing cream for about 20 minutes before we begin. Let us know if you have a history of cold sores.
The Treatment
Your nurse works in overlapping passes, adjusting depth by zone and applying serum as she goes. Sessions run 30 to 60 minutes. Most clients feel a light prickly buzz, more spicy than sore.
Aftercare
Expect to look flushed and feel tight, like a mild sunburn, for about 24 hours. Use a gentle cleanser and the provided serums, wear SPF 30+, and skip makeup, hard workouts, and active skincare for a day or two.

Your Results Timeline
Microneedling rewards patience, not a single visit. Here is the honest timeline, from the first week to a full series.
-
The first week
The flush settles in about 24 hours, and many clients notice a faint smoothness within days.
-
Four to six weeks
This is when fresh collagen starts showing its work: texture refines, scars begin to soften, and skin looks firmer in the mirror.
-
Across a full series
A series of three sessions, about four weeks apart, delivers the full result, though deeper scarring may need more. After that, most Newport Beach clients move to a maintenance rhythm.

With numbing cream applied for about 20 minutes beforehand, most clients feel a light prickly buzz, more spicy than sore.
Acne scarring is one of microneedling’s strongest use cases. The micro-channels prompt collagen to rebuild beneath the scar, softening its edges over the series. Deeper scarring may need additional sessions, mapped honestly at the You Review.
With a licensed provider and an FDA-cleared device, microneedling is well studied and safe. It is not for clients who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have an active infection, cold sore, or severe breakout in the area, or have recently taken isotretinoin. Your You Review screens for all of this.
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is drawn from your own blood, spun in our on-site centrifuge, and applied during your session so the growth factors reach the open micro-channels. Both Brittnee and Carolyn deliver microneedling with PRP at Newport Beach.
Most plans run a series of three sessions, about four weeks apart. Deeper scarring may call for more; your nurse will say so upfront.
A faint smoothness often shows within days, real collagen change appears around four to six weeks, and the full result builds across the series.
About 24 hours of looking flushed, like a mild sunburn. Planned well, it is a nonevent.
