Smooth Texture. Renewed Glow.
Struggling with acne scars, large pores, or uneven skin texture?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that stimulates your body’s natural collagen production to improve skin tone, texture, and overall skin health—without lasers, fillers, or downtime-heavy procedures.
Microneedling uses tiny, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. As your body heals these micro-wounds, it produces collagen, elastin, and growth factors, which help rejuvenate and smooth the skin.
Microneedling is commonly used to improve:
- Acne scars or large pores
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Stretch marks or sagging skin
- Uneven tone or texture
- Sun damage and discoloration
After treatment, the skin may feel similar to a mild sunburn, with redness, swelling, and possibly some flaking or purging. These side effects typically last 1–5 days. To support healing, avoid makeup, sun exposure, exercise, and active skincare for the first 24–48 hours.
For best results, we recommend a series of 3 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Some changes can be seen early, but full results take up to 3 months as collagen remodels below the surface.
Not suitable for those with active acne, eczema, psoriasis, a history of keloids, or certain medical conditions — please consult with your provider first.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often is microneedling recommended?
At Bellamah Aesthetics, we generally recommend an initial series of 3 to 6 treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. This interval is essential to align with your skin’s natural 28-day regeneration cycle. For patients in Missoula seeking to maintain their results, we suggest a single maintenance session every 6 to 12 months.
What is the downtime after microneedling?
Downtime is minimal. Most patients experience redness similar to a mild sunburn for 24 to 48 hours. While your skin may feel dry or flaky for up to 5 days, you can typically return to wearing makeup and your regular skincare routine after 48 hours. We provide medical-grade post-care instructions to ensure a fast and safe recovery.
Does microneedling affect Botox or dermal fillers?
Microneedling does not negatively affect Botox or fillers; however, timing is critical. We recommend waiting at least 2 weeks after receiving injectables before having a microneedling session. This ensures the Botox or filler has fully integrated into the tissue, allowing the microneedling to safely stimulate collagen around the treated areas.
