Microneedling
Collagen Induction Therapy to Restore, Strengthen, and Smooth
Give your skin a fresh start with Microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy) at Accucare Wellness & Aesthetics. This advanced, non-invasive treatment is designed to reboot your skin’s natural production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid—the essential building blocks of youthful, resilient skin.
Microneedling is ideal for those noticing signs of aging, such as fine lines, enlarged pores, and loss of firmness, or for anyone seeking to smooth acne scars and improve overall skin texture. Unlike treatments that simply mask concerns, microneedling works by triggering your body’s own healing response to rebuild skin from within.
How Microneedling Works
Microneedling, also known as Percutaneous Collagen Induction Therapy, uses a pen-shaped device with ultra-fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. These tiny punctures stimulate your body’s natural healing process—starting with inflammation, followed by tissue remodeling and the creation of new collagen and elastin fibers.
Unlike heat-based treatments, microneedling doesn’t risk post-inflammatory pigmentation, making it a safe option for all skin tones, including those prone to melasma or hyperpigmentation.

Is Microneedling Right for You?
As we age, our natural production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid slows down—leading to dry, sagging skin, wrinkles, and loss of volume. Moisturizers and exfoliants can help temporarily, but they can’t reverse the internal decline of skin strength.
Microneedling is a game-changer: it tricks your body into healing and restoring itself. By creating micro-injuries in the skin, it jumpstarts collagen and elastin production in a smooth, controlled way—leaving you with firmer, smoother, more youthful skin.
It’s also an excellent option for those dealing with acne scarring. Traditional acne can leave behind pitted or uneven skin due to the body’s rapid healing response. Microneedling encourages new, even collagen to fill in those irregularities—something topical products alone can't achieve.
