What is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive procedure that involves creating thousands of microscopic punctures in the skin’s surface using fine needles. These controlled micro-injuries stimulate your body’s natural healing process, triggering increased collagen and elastin production—the two proteins responsible for maintaining skin’s firmness, elasticity, and youthful appearance. The treatment works on the principle that your skin has remarkable regenerative capabilities. When the tiny needles create controlled micro injuries, your body responds by accelerating cellular turnover and enhancing the production of new skin cells. This process effectively addresses a wide range of skin concerns, including:
  • Acne scars and other types of scarring
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Enlarged pores
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Stretch marks
  • Sun damage
  • Hyperpigmentation

Microneedling Featuring DermaPen

At Cross Hudson Plastic Surgery, we proudly use the DermaPen, a state-of-the-art microneedling device that represents the latest advancement in skin rejuvenation technology. The DermaPen offers several advantages over traditional microneedling rollers and even some laser treatments:
Precision and Consistency
The DermaPen features adjustable needle depth settings, allowing Dr. Mordkovich to customize treatments based on the specific area being treated and the patient’s unique skin concerns. This level of precision ensures consistent results across all treatment areas.
Unlike rollers that can create tears in the skin as they enter at an angle, the DermaPen’s fine needles enter the skin vertically. This reduces discomfort and minimizes recovery time while maximizing the effectiveness of the treatment.
The DermaPen’s adjustable speed settings allow for greater comfort during treatment and better results in different skin areas.
With its disposable needle tips, the DermaPen eliminates the risk of cross-contamination between patients, ensuring the highest standards of safety and hygiene.

PRP Therapy vs Microneedling

While both PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy and microneedling offer impressive skin rejuvenation benefits, they work in different ways and can actually complement each other when combined.

PRP Therapy

This treatment involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and then applying or injecting this platelet-rich plasma into the treatment area. Platelets contain growth factors that stimulate tissue regeneration and promote the healing process.
As described earlier, microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production.
At Cross Hudson Plastic Surgery, Dr. Mordkovich often recommends combining these treatments for enhanced results. When PRP is applied during or immediately after the microneedling procedure, the micro-channels created by the fine needles allow for deeper penetration of the growth factors in PRP. Dr. Mordkovich will evaluate your skin during your consultation and determine whether microneedling alone or in combination with PRP would be most beneficial for addressing your specific skin concerns.

Microneedling Procedure: Step by Step

Consultation and Assessment
Before your treatment, Dr. Mordkovich will evaluate your skin condition, discuss your concerns and goals, and determine a customized treatment plan.
When you arrive for your appointment, your skin will be thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup, oil, or debris. Clinical photographs may be taken for before-and-after comparison.
A topical numbing cream will be applied to your treatment area and left on for approximately 30-45 minutes to ensure minimal discomfort during the procedure.
Dr. Mordkovich will adjust the DermaPen’s needle depth and speed settings based on your specific treatment areas and skin concerns.
The DermaPen device will be methodically moved across the treatment areas, creating thousands of microscopic channels in your skin. You may feel a slight vibration or mild sensation, but the numbing cream significantly reduces any discomfort.
Depending on your specific needs, therapeutic serums containing hyaluronic acid, vitamins, or growth factors will be applied during or immediately after the treatment. If you’ve opted for PRP, this is when your platelet-rich plasma would be introduced to the skin.

A calming, hydrating mask may be applied to reduce redness and soothe the skin.

Before you leave, you’ll receive detailed instructions on how to care for your skin in the days following your treatment.
The entire microneedling procedure typically takes 60-90 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area and whether additional therapies like hyaluronic acid infusion are included.

Recovery fter Microneedling

Immediately After Treatment
Your skin will appear noticeably red, resembling a sunburn, while experiencing mild swelling and sensitivity throughout the treated area. A tight sensation will likely develop across the skin’s surface, which is completely normal and expected following the procedure.
The initial redness begins to fade significantly within the first day, though some subtle swelling may linger for a bit longer. By the third day, most patients find their skin has calmed considerably, though it might feel slightly dry or begin to show minor flaking as the healing process continues.
Your skin might temporarily develop a somewhat rough texture as the important collagen production process begins beneath the surface. Around the one-week mark, you’ll notice your skin appears refreshed and more radiant as the surface healing completes and flaking resolves completely.
Beneath your skin, the regenerative process continues as collagen and elastin production work to transform your complexion from within. The gradual improvements become increasingly visible with each passing week, enhancing your skin’s overall texture and tone. By the six to eight-week point, you’ll witness the full transformation with significant improvements in various skin concerns, revealing the treatment’s remarkable effectiveness.
For optimal results, Dr. Mordkovich typically recommends a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance treatments every 6-12 months to continue combating the aging process.

Ideal Candidate for Microneedling

You may be an ideal candidate for microneedling if:
You have acne scars, surgical scars, or stretch marks you’d like to minimize
You’re noticing signs of aging like wrinkles
You have enlarged pores or uneven skin texture
You’re experiencing hyperpigmentation or sun damage
You want to improve your skin’s overall appearance without significant downtime
You have realistic expectations about gradual, progressive improvement
You’re in good general health without active skin infections
You’re not currently pregnant or breastfeeding
You don’t have a history of keloid scarring
During your consultation, Dr. Mordkovich will thoroughly evaluate your skin concerns, medical history, and aesthetic goals to determine if microneedling is the right choice for you. He may recommend alternative or complementary procedures if they would better address your specific skin concerns.

Benefits of Microneedling

Physical Benefits

Microneedling powerfully stimulates collagen and elastin production, creating a natural regeneration process that continues for weeks after treatment. Fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars visibly diminish as the skin rebuilds itself, while enlarged pores become less noticeable with each session. The procedure also creates more even skin tone by addressing hyperpigmentation and improves overall texture and firmness.
Many patients experience a significant boost in confidence and self-esteem as they watch their skin transform, often reducing anxiety related to appearance concerns they may have struggled with for years. The gradual, natural-looking improvements provide deep satisfaction and eliminate the need for heavy makeup to conceal imperfections, allowing a more authentic presentation of self. Microneedling offers patients a sense of empowerment over the aging process, establishing a positive relationship with skincare that enhances overall well-being and beauty.
The minimal downtime associated with microneedling makes it exceptionally convenient compared to more invasive procedures and surgery, allowing most patients to return to normal activities within 24-48 hours. Unlike some laser treatments, microneedling is safe for all skin types and tones, making it an inclusive option that can be performed year-round regardless of sun exposure concerns. The procedure’s affordability, customizability, and ability to complement other cosmetic treatments like Botox make it an intelligent investment in your skin’s long-term health and appearance.

Cost of Microneedling in Englewood Cliffs, NJ

The average cost of microneedling in Englewood Cliffs, NJ is between $350 to $650 per session, with specific pricing dependent on the treatment area size and whether specialized add-ons like PRP or hyaluronic acid serums are included.
