Microneedling and Mesoneedling
Microneedling & Mesoneedling: Advanced Skin Rejuvenation From Within
Microneedling and mesoneedling are minimally invasive treatments designed to stimulate collagen, improve skin quality, and enhance overall radiance. While they are closely related, each technique serves a slightly different purpose—allowing treatments to be customized to your skin’s needs and your aesthetic goals.
At Metzner Aesthetics, these treatments are used strategically to improve skin health, texture, and long-term resilience.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin. These micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing response, stimulating:
-
Collagen production
-
Elastin formation
-
Cellular turnover
As the skin repairs itself, it becomes smoother, firmer, and more even in tone.
Microneedling focuses primarily on skin regeneration and health, not volume.
What Is Mesoneedling?
Mesoneedling is a specialized form of microneedling that combines superficial needling with the delivery of targeted skin-supporting substances—such as growth factors, peptides, or regenerative solutions—into the upper layers of the skin.
Rather than focusing on depth, mesoneedling emphasizes:
-
Skin quality
-
Hydration
-
Glow and refinement
-
Even tone and texture
It is especially useful for patients seeking subtle, skin-forward rejuvenation.
How Do These Treatments Work?
Microneedling
-
Creates controlled micro-injuries (deeper than 0.5mm- depth depends on the treatment)
-
Stimulates collagen and elastin
-
Improves texture, firmness, and scars (including acne scars)
-
Strengthens the skin over time
-
Refines pores and fine lines
Mesoneedling
-
Enhances absorption of beneficial topicals (depth is less than 0.5mm)
-
Improves skin hydration and luminosity
-
Refines pores and fine lines
-
Supports healthier, more resilient skin
Together, these techniques can be used independently or combined in a treatment plan for layered, comprehensive skin improvement.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Microneedling and mesoneedling may be ideal if you:
-
Want to improve skin texture or tone
-
Have fine lines, enlarged pores, or acne scars
-
Are noticing early signs of aging
-
Want to enhance skin quality without fillers
-
Prefer natural, regenerative treatments
These treatments are appropriate for many skin types and ages when properly customized.
