Are you looking for a way to look your best as we move into autumn? If you have concerns about the appearance of your skin, one of the best options is microneedling. It’s a simple technique that gives you youthful-looking radiant skin that is sure to make you enjoy looking in the mirror.
What Are the Benefits of Microneedling?
While microneedling is capable of making your skin glow, there are additional benefits to be aware of. Some of the things that microneedling can do for you include:
- Removes the need to have peels, laser treatments, or fillers
- Provides radiant skin that takes off the years
- Diminishes the presence of fine lines and wrinkles
- Evens out the tone of your skin
- Soothes constantly itchy and dry skin
- Provides a stunning and lasting glow
- Heals acne and scars from it
- Removes age spots, sun spots, and blemishes
How Does Microneedling Work?
The idea behind microneedling is to cause your skin to heal itself. A special device is used to create small holes in the skin. This causes the skin to create more collagen, which is essential to rebuilding the skin.
When the skin has lots of collagen, it can close your pores, resolve acne, fight against wrinkles, and create a youthful texture for your skin. Microneedling is so useful for these things that it’s also known as collagen induction therapy. Several clinical studies show that it makes your skin look great.
What Is the Treatment Like?
Before your treatment, the professional will put a topical anesthetic on the skin. The procedure is quick and lasts only a few minutes. A cooling ointment is then applied to the skin. After the treatment, your skin might experience mild swelling or redness which can last two or three days.
How Many Treatments Are Needed?
There will be some improvement after a single session. However, the full results tend to be best after half a dozen sessions. It’s important to wait a few weeks between each procedure. After six treatments, maintenance can be done through occasional microneedling sessions.
If it sounds like microneedling is a great way to prepare for an amazing fall, it could be time to set an appointment to have the procedure done. Beauty & Body by Mia offers this treatment to transform your skin. Look for experienced staff who can make your dream skin a reality.

The Differences Between Ultherapy vs Thermage Treatments
As you consider Thermage or Ultherapy, it’s important to know the similarities and differences between the two. Ultherapy treatments are used to lift the skin at deeper layers than Thermage treatments do, which is why it takes more sessions with Ultherapy to see results than with Thermage.
How Does Ultherapy Work?
Ultherapy is a non-invasive FDA-cleared procedure. This treatment uses ultrasound energy beneath the surface of the skin to stimulate collagen production. Ultherapy treatments are more suitable for tightening areas around the jaw line, lifting eyelids, tightening neck skin, and diminishing wrinkles. Menopausal women will benefit from Ultherapy more than Thermage because of hormonal changes that cause laxity in skin tissue
How Does Thermage Work?
Thermage uses radiofrequency (RF) technology to deliver heat deep into tissues, stimulating new collagen production. When performed on the face, the procedure tightens glandular tissues which is why it’s primarily used to improve facial contours such as smoothing out lines across the forehead or between the eyes. Thermage is also used to tighten the abdominal area, that is the advantage of doing Thermage on larger areas. A single treatment takes about 30 to 90 minutes depending on the treatment area, and there is little to no downtime.
How many treatments do I need?
Thermage treatments take about an hour while Ultherapy takes 30 minutes. These procedures can be performed on any part of the body including your face, neck, arms, hands, chest, or abdomen.
In terms of downtime, both treatments require only minimal recovery with no invasive incisions or stitches necessary for either procedure. Both procedures have similar results when performed on men with great results achieved after 3-4 sessions with 2-3 treatments within a year. Most individuals only need one treatment. For severe skin laxity, two treatments may be more beneficial.
These procedures can be performed on the same day as other non-invasive procedures that you use for self-care, including chemical peels and microdermabrasion, and both Ultherapy and Thermage enhance other skin rejuvenation treatments such as laser resurfacing and injectables like Botox.
