Microneedling
in Melbourne, FL
As the skin ages or heals from trauma, loss of structural collagen and elastin leads to fine lines and wrinkles, textural irregularities, and lingering skin issues. At RENEW, microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a proven, minimally invasive procedure that rebuilds your complexion from within.
Supervised by double board-certified specialist Dr. King Kim, our Melbourne medspa uses an advanced, medical-grade microneedling device to safely trigger the skin's healing process. Whether targeting post-acne scarring, enlarged pores, or sun damage, microneedling stimulates organic tissue remodeling to reveal smoother skin across all skin tones.
Smooths atrophic acne scars, softens fine lines, refines overall skin texture, and improves skin elasticity.
Uses sterilized fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries that signal rapid collagen production and tissue repair.
Safe for all complexions, including darker skin tones, with minimal risk of skin discoloration.
In-office cosmetic procedure performed using a high-strength numbing cream for complete patient comfort.
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive skin resurfacing treatment that uses a device with fine needles to create thousands of controlled microchannels on the skin's surface. These tiny punctures trigger the skin's natural ability to heal itself, stimulating the production of new collagen and elastin.
These proteins help keep skin firm, smooth, and youthful. The result is skin that looks and feels genuinely healthier from the inside out. Unlike treatments that work only on the surface, microneedling creates real structural improvement in the skin over time.
Before receiving microneedling Melbourne patients begin with a thorough skin consultation to assess their concerns and determine the appropriate treatment depth and procedure for their skin type. On the day of your appointment, a topical numbing cream will be applied to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. The microneedling device is then passed over the treatment area, creating microchannels that stimulate your skin's healing process.
The treatment takes up to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. You may experience some redness and mild sensitivity immediately following the procedure, similar to a light sunburn, which generally subsides within 24 to 48 hours. Most patients are able to return to their normal activities the following day. For optimal results, a series of 3 to 6 treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart is typically recommended, with many patients choosing maintenance sessions every 3 to 6 months thereafter.

Microneedling is one of the most versatile treatments we offer at Renew, effectively addressing a wide range of skin concerns, including:
Under Eyes
The delicate skin under and around the eyes is often one of the first areas to show signs of aging. Microneedling stimulates collagen production in this sensitive area, gradually improving the appearance of fine lines, crepey texture, and dark circles. Over a series of treatments, patients notice firmer, smoother, and more refreshed-looking eyes without the need for surgery or significant downtime.
Stretch Marks
While no treatment can completely eliminate stretch marks, microneedling is one of the most effective options available for improving their appearance. By stimulating collagen production in stretched and damaged skin, treatments result in plumper, smoother, and healthier-looking skin over time. This results in reduced visibility of stretch marks and a more even skin surface.
Neck
The neck is frequently overlooked in skincare routines, yet it can betray your age just as much as your face. Microneedling the neck helps tighten lax skin, improve uneven tone, and smooth rough texture, effectively turning back the clock on one of the most telling areas of aging. Many patients are amazed by how much of a difference a series of treatments can make.
Face & Wrinkles
From fine expression lines to deeper creases, microneedling improves the skin's overall tone, texture, and firmness across the face. By triggering the skin's natural collagen and elastin production, it addresses the root cause of wrinkles rather than simply covering them. For more advanced concerns, we recommend pairing microneedling with our PRF or RF treatments to further amplify your results.
Acne Scars
Stubborn acne scars are one of the most common reasons patients seek out microneedling, and one of the areas where results can be truly transformative. The controlled micro-channels created during treatment break down scar tissue and stimulate the growth of new, healthy skin. Some patients achieve their desired results with microneedling alone, while others benefit from combining it with PRF or RF treatments for deeper, more significant scarring.
Custom Melbourne microneedling protocols address a wide variety of textural and structural skin concerns:

For our Melbourne microneedling patients, treatment is never one-size-fits-all. Every session is customized to your skin type, concerns, and goals by a team with the medical training and aesthetic expertise to deliver real, lasting results.
However, patients should avoid microneedling if they have active acne breakouts, open wounds, or active skin infections in the treatment area. Individuals with a weakened immune system, active keloid scarring, or those taking certain blood-thinning medications will be evaluated during the consultation to ensure safe treatment.
Recovery following a microneedling treatment is short and manageable. Immediately after your appointment, the treated area will appear pink or mildly red, similar to a light sunburn, accompanied by mild warmth that subsides within a few hours.
Essential Aftercare Guidelines:
Initial brightness and skin smoothness become noticeable within a few weeks as early surface healing completes. However, because natural collagen production takes time, structural improvements—such as softened wrinkles and smoother acne scars—continue to evolve over 2 to 3 months.
While a single session offers visible refinement, achieving optimal results typically requires multiple treatments. Most patients complete a series of 3 to 6 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments scheduled annually help preserve your youthful-looking skin long-term.

Medical-grade microneedling devices enter the skin at a precise 90-degree angle with adjustable, sterile needle depths, preventing tissue tearing. At-home derma rollers roll across the skin at an angle, which can create jagged micro-tears, increase infection risk, and fail to reach depths required to treat deep acne scars.
Discomfort is minimal. Applying a strong topical anesthetic or numbing cream before the procedure helps ensure you remain comfortable throughout your treatment.
While microneedling outcomes vary depending on individual skin concerns, most patients achieve optimal results with a series of 3 to 6 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart.
Yes. Unlike many thermal laser treatments, microneedling does not heat the skin or disrupt melanocytes, making it an ideal choice for darker skin tones seeking scar or texture repair.
Yes. Combining microneedling with platelet-rich plasma accelerates the healing process and enhances collagen induction, yielding faster, more dramatic improvements in skin texture and firmness.
