MedBeautyLA is proud to serve as the most trusted provider for microneedling in downtown Los Angeles. Our staff of skin care experts have over 20 years combined experience and continually attend courses and conferences to ensure we are utilizing the most advanced and clinically-proven techniques.
Microneedling — the process of creating controlled micro-injuries on the skin — activates your body's natural healing response. The treatment improves skin tone and texture, reduces pore size, and improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Microneedling also promotes collagen and elastin, leading to plumper, more youthful skin overall.
Our practice exclusively uses the SkinPen microneedling device, which is the first FDA-approved microneedling device on the market. It works on all skin types, is extremely safe, and requires little downtime. We also offer microneedling with radio-frequency (RF microneedling), which penetrates deeper into the skin for an increased level of collagen induction therapy.

With numbing cream, most patients describe mild discomfort rather than pain. The sensation is often compared to light sandpaper moving across the skin. RF microneedling may have slightly more sensation due to the heat component.
Most patients see best results with 3-6 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Acne scarring may require more sessions, while general skin rejuvenation may need fewer.
RF microneedling adds radiofrequency energy to the needles, delivering heat deep into the skin for enhanced collagen production and tightening. It's particularly effective for deeper scars and skin laxity.
Initial glow appears within a week, but true collagen remodeling takes 4-6 weeks. Results continue to improve for up to 6 months after your final session.
Wait 24 hours before applying makeup to allow the micro-channels to close. Use only mineral makeup for the first few days.
Expect 2-3 days of redness similar to a sunburn. Some patients experience mild swelling and dryness. Most return to normal activities within 24-48 hours.
