RadioFrequency Microneedling

Revitalize Your Skin with Microneedling at SkinMD!

If you're looking to rejuvenate your skin and restore a youthful, glowing complexion, microneedling at SkinMD, the premier aesthetics medspa in Dearborn, Michigan, might be the treatment you need. This advanced, minimally invasive treatment promotes collagen production and enhances the texture, tone, and clarity of your skin, helping you look refreshed and rejuvenated.


What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a procedure that uses fine needles to create tiny, controlled injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries trigger the skin’s natural healing process, stimulating collagen and elastin production, which are essential for smooth, firm, and youthful-looking skin. At SkinMD, we take this treatment to the next level with SYLFIRM X, a cutting-edge microneedling system that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to improve skin texture, tighten skin, and enhance overall skin health.

Benefits of Microneedling

Microneedling offers a wide range of benefits for individuals looking to improve their skin’s appearance and address specific concerns. The treatment helps:

  • Improve Scarring: Whether from acne or other types of trauma, microneedling helps to reduce the appearance of scars by stimulating new skin growth.
  • Reduce Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Collagen production and skin tightening smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, giving your face a more youthful look.
  • Enhance Skin Texture and Tone: Microneedling works to improve skin texture, creating a smoother and more even surface. It also promotes better skin clarity and tone.
  • Tighten the Skin: By stimulating collagen and elastin, microneedling tightens sagging skin, providing a lifted, firmer appearance.
  • Minimize Stretch Marks: Microneedling can also be used to reduce the appearance of stretch marks, improving the skin's elasticity and texture.

How Does Microneedling Work?

During the microneedling procedure at SkinMD, a specialized device equipped with tiny needles is gently moved over the treatment area. These needles create micro-channels in the skin, encouraging the body to heal itself by producing collagen and elastin. When combined with radiofrequency (RF) energy, as used with SYLFIRM X, the treatment penetrates deeper into the skin, helping tighten and rejuvenate skin from within.


This non-invasive treatment is safe for various skin types and requires minimal downtime. While some redness or mild inflammation is common and expected, these effects typically subside within 24-48 hours.


What to Expect After Your Microneedling Treatment

After your microneedling session, you may experience some redness and slight swelling for up to 48 hours. Your skin will feel tight and may have a sunburn-like sensation. It’s important to avoid makeup, excessive sun exposure, and strenuous activities for the first 24-48 hours post-treatment.


As your skin heals, you may notice peeling or flaking. This is completely normal as your skin sheds the old, damaged cells and generates new, healthy ones. Expect visible improvements in skin texture, tone, and clarity 4-5 days after the procedure, with optimal results becoming evident within 4-6 weeks.


How Many Treatments Do I Need?

The number of treatments needed depends on your skin's specific concerns and goals. SkinMD recommends a series of 3-5 treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, to achieve optimal results. Each session allows collagen to build up gradually, improving skin structure over time. After your initial treatments, you may opt for maintenance sessions every 6-12 months.

Sculptra and Long-Term Skin Maintenance

February 15, 2025
The Power of Patience: Why Sculptra Is an Investment in Your Skin’s Future In a world where instant gratification is often the norm, it can be hard to resist the temptation of treatments that promise quick, visible results. But when it comes to your skin, sometimes the best outcomes come from a little patience and planning. That’s where Sculptra shines. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that offer immediate results, Sculptra works gradually, offering long-lasting rejuvenation by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production. If you’re looking for a treatment that enhances your skin’s future health and youthful appearance, Sculptra could be the perfect fit. Sculptra: A Gradual Investment in Your Skin Sculptra is not a quick fix—it’s a biostimulator that works by activating your body’s fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen production. Over time, as these cells produce more collagen, your skin’s texture improves, volume is restored, and wrinkles and sagging are visibly reduced. This natural process leads to a refreshed, youthful appearance that continues to improve over the course of several months. While dermal fillers may give you immediate volume and smoothness, Sculptra addresses the root cause of aging: collagen loss. With Sculptra , the effects are subtle and build gradually, creating a more natural look. Unlike the instant plumpness offered by other treatments, Sculptra’s benefits unfold over time, resulting in a more sustainable and long-term transformation. Plus, the results can last up to two years, making it a smart investment in your skin's future. A Long-Term Approach to Skin Rejuvenation Think of Sculptra as a way to “future-proof” your skin. The series of treatments are spaced out over weeks, allowing the collagen-stimulating effects to develop and settle in, helping you maintain a natural, youthful look without drastic changes. This gradual approach not only avoids the overly “done” look but also ensures that your results are more harmonious and sustainable. In essence, you’re investing in a younger, healthier version of yourself for the years to come. But Sculptra isn’t the only way to ensure long-term skin health. A daily skincare regimen focused on boosting collagen production and protecting your skin is essential. For example, sunscreen should be your skin’s best friend year-round. UV damage is one of the most significant contributors to skin aging, so applying a broad-spectrum SPF daily is vital in preserving your skin’s health and preventing premature wrinkles. Additionally, incorporating products that support collagen synthesis, like Vitamin C serums , can complement the effects of Sculptra by brightening and protecting your skin. For extra hydration and to improve skin elasticity, consider adding hydrating moisturizers and retinoids to your routine, which can help promote cell turnover and smooth fine lines.

DiamondGlow Microdermabrasion

February 15, 2025
Discover the Next Generation of Microdermabrasion with DiamondGlow®  When it comes to keeping your skin healthy, vibrant, and youthful, regular exfoliation is key. While traditional microdermabrasion treatments have long been a staple in skincare routines, there’s now a new, next-generation option that takes exfoliation to the next level: DiamondGlow®. At Skin MD, we offer this innovative treatment to help you achieve radiant, smooth, and youthful-looking skin. DiamondGlow® offers all the benefits of microdermabrasion, plus so much more. Let's dive into why this cutting-edge treatment should be your next skincare investment. What is DiamondGlow®? DiamondGlow® is a non-invasive facial treatment that combines gentle microdermabrasion with advanced skin infusion technology. Using a diamond-tipped wand, DiamondGlow® exfoliates the skin's surface, removing dead skin cells and revealing a fresher, brighter complexion underneath. But that's not all. As the wand glides over the skin, it also performs an extraction process, removing debris from clogged pores, while simultaneously infusing the skin with professional-grade SkinMedica® Pro-Infusion Serums that hydrate and nourish the skin. This all-in-one treatment provides the benefits of deep exfoliation, pore cleansing, and skin hydration without the downtime associated with many other facial treatments.

Skincare Products to Boost/Maintain Treatment Results

February 5, 2025
How Skincare Products Can Enhance Your Med Spa Treatments When you’re investing in professional treatments like microneedling, Botox, or laser facials, you want to ensure that the results last as long as possible. While in-office treatments provide immediate benefits, the right at-home skincare regimen can help maintain and even enhance those results. The combination of professional services and high-quality skincare products is the key to unlocking glowing, healthy skin. The Power of Skincare Between Treatments At Skin MD in Dearborn, Michigan, we know that skincare isn’t one-size-fits-all. What works for one person might not work for another, which is why we offer personalized consultations to create treatment plans tailored to your unique skin needs. And while our advanced services like microneedling or Botox are effective on their own, using the right skincare products can elevate the effects, helping to keep your skin healthy, rejuvenated, and youthful for longer. For example, after a microneedling session, your skin is primed to absorb products more effectively. Using the right serums, moisturizers, and sunscreens can amplify the results and help speed up the healing process. On the other hand, Botox helps to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines, but a daily skincare routine with hydrating products will keep your skin nourished and plump, ensuring that the effects last as long as possible.
