Microneedling
Stimulate Collagen. Improve Texture. Reveal Radiance.
Microneedling at Beautique Medical Spa in McAllen, TX uses precision-controlled needles to activate your skin’s natural healing response — helping to visibly reduce scars, fine lines, and large pores while improving tone and texture. As collagen and elastin regenerate, your skin becomes smoother, firmer, and more radiant — all without harsh lasers or extended downtime.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) is a non-surgical treatment that uses ultra-fine needles to create thousands of controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny channels stimulate collagen production, encourage cell turnover, and enhance product absorption — triggering your skin to rebuild from the inside out.
At Beautique, we tailor your microneedling plan to your skin goals and concerns, offering standard sessions or pairing with treatments like PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or exosomes for enhanced rejuvenation.

Microneedling is safe for most skin types and can be used on the face, neck, and body. It’s ideal for:

Frequently Asked Questions – Microneedling
Is microneedling painful?
Most clients tolerate microneedling well. We apply a topical numbing cream before treatment to minimize discomfort.
Is there downtime?
Downtime is minimal. Expect mild redness and sensitivity for 24–72 hours. Some may experience light peeling or dryness as the skin regenerates.
Can microneedling be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Microneedling can be enhanced with PRP (platelet-rich plasma), exosomes (XO|Restore), LED therapy, or light peels. We’ll guide you on what’s best for your skin.
How soon will I see results?
You may notice an initial glow within a week, with continued improvement over 4–8 weeks as collagen rebuilds. Full results appear gradually after completing your series.
Is microneedling safe for darker skin tones?
Yes, when performed correctly, microneedling is safe and effective for all skin tones.
Can microneedling treat acne scars?
Absolutely. It’s one of the best non-laser treatments for improving acne-scarred skin texture and discoloration.
