Microneedling has become a popular choice in the skincare community for its ability to rejuvenate and revitalize skin. Among the various options available, Dermalogica Pro Microneedling stands out as a professional treatment designed to enhance skin texture and tone. Pro Microneedling is an advanced treatment that delivers innovative techniques and powerful, professional-grade actives to brighten the complexion, refine the look of pores, reduce the appearance of dark spots, and diminish the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
In this post, we'll explore what Dermalogica Pro Microneedling is, its benefits, the process involved, and why it may be the perfect choice for anyone looking to improve their skin health.

Understanding Microneedling
Microneedling, often called collagen induction therapy, uses fine needles to create tiny injuries in the skin. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing response, which prompts the production of collagen and elastin. These proteins are vital for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness.
While there are at-home devices available, professional treatments like Dermalogica Pro Microneedling are more effective and achieve better results. This is due to the trained practitioners who use advanced equipment to ensure optimal results. For example, professional devices can penetrate the skin more deeply than at-home tools, yielding better outcomes.
What Makes Dermalogica Pro Microneedling Unique?
Dermalogica is renowned in the skincare industry for its science-based approach. Dermalogica Pro Microneedling offers enhanced results thanks to cutting-edge technology, innovative techniques and professional-grade products.
Using a specialized microneedling device, therapists can customize the depth and speed of the needles based on individual skin needs. This level of personalization ensures that each treatment is both safe and effective, adapting to specific concerns such as acne scars, fine lines, or uneven texture.
The Benefits of Dermalogica Pro Microneedling
1. Enhanced Collagen Production
One of the key benefits of microneedling is increased collagen production. Research indicates that even after a single session, collagen levels may rise significantly, sometimes by as much as 400%. New collagen leads to smoother skin texture and a more youthful appearance.
2. Improved Skin Texture
Microneedling can effectively address texture issues like fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars. Acne scars can be particularly distressing for those who have experienced severe breakouts in the past. These scars often leave the skin with uneven texture and can be challenging to treat with traditional skincare products. Microneedling offers a solution by breaking down the scar tissue and encouraging the skin to regenerate. The process not only helps to reduce the appearance of existing scars but also improves overall skin texture and tone.
3. Better Absorption of Skincare Products
After microneedling, the skin becomes more open to absorbing serums and skincare products. For instance, products can penetrate up to 80% deeper, enhancing their effectiveness. This is particularly beneficial when clients use high-quality serums rich in vitamins C and E.
4. Minimal Downtime
Unlike more invasive procedures, Dermalogica Pro Microneedling typically requires minimal downtime. We use a products called Pro Restore during the treatment and gives client 2 vials to go home with. This products speeds out downtime. Most people can resume normal activities shortly after. Although mild redness similar to sunburn may occur, it usually fades within a day or two.
5. Versatility
Dermalogica Pro Microneedling suits various skin types and concerns, making it a versatile choice for improving skin appearance. Whether dealing with aging, pigmentation issues, pore size or uneven skin texture, this treatment can be tailored to meet specific needs.

The Dermalogica Pro Microneedling Process
Consultation
Before the treatment, a skincare expert conducts a consultation. They assess the individual’s skin type and concerns to ensure that microneedling is appropriate. At this stage a patch test will be complete to ensure to allergic reaction takes place.
Preparation
A pre-treatment regimen may be suggested to enhance skin resilience. This often includes hydrating serums designed to prepare the skin for better results. Clients are also advices of what not to do before your microneedling treatment.
The Procedure
During the treatment, your therapist will use a selection of Dermalogica products suitable for your skin type and concerns. The treatment will start with a deep cleanse of the skin and move on to the resurfacing stage, where a customised power peel will be applied to your face. Your therapist then uses a specialized device to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. Pro Restore is used before, during and after the microneedling stage.
Post-Treatment Care
Following the procedure, your therapist will provide aftercare instructions and product recommendation to maximise your results and decrease your down time. These may include recommendations for specific products, avoiding sun exposure, and ensuring the skin remains moisturized to boost healing.
