Skip to content Maintaining firm, hydrated, youthful-looking skin becomes more important as we age. Many people notice their skin losing elasticity and developing a dry, dull appearance due to reduced collagen and slower cell turnover. At Luna Med Spa, we understand these concerns and offer microneedling treatments that support your skin’s natural ability to repair and renew. Whether you want to smooth fine lines, improve skin tone, or support skin hydration, microneedling may help you meet your goals.
This article will explain how microneedling works, why it’s effective for improving skin elasticity and hydration, and what you can expect from this skin rejuvenation treatment. We’ll also share the therapy offered at Luna Med Spa, including advanced options such as SkinPen Microneedling with PRP or AnteAge MD Growth Factor Solution.
Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that stimulates your body’s natural skin-healing response. The treatment involves using a device with very fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny punctures are not deep enough to damage the skin but are enough to trigger the body to produce more collagen and elastin—two essential proteins for firm, youthful skin.
During the healing process, new collagen fibers form, helping improve skin elasticity, tone, and texture. Repeated microneedling sessions can support long-term improvements in the look and feel of your skin. Microneedling collagen production is the primary mechanism that helps strengthen skin structure and firmness.
At Luna Med Spa, we offer SkinPen Microneedling, a clinically tested and FDA-cleared device. The treatment can be enhanced with either Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) or AnteAge MD Growth Factor Solution, supporting better healing and visible results.
As we age, collagen production naturally declines. This results in looser, less firm skin, particularly around the cheeks, jawline, and neck. By stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin, microneedling helps reinforce the skin’s structural support network.
Microneedling for skin elasticity works by creating microchannels that activate fibroblasts—the skin cells responsible for collagen synthesis. The controlled healing process improves skin tightness and helps reduce the appearance of sagging. Over a series of treatments, the skin becomes noticeably firmer and more resilient.
Patients often seek microneedling for youthful skin because the increase in collagen leads to smoother, tighter skin without surgery or extended downtime. It is beneficial in areas where skin starts to droop early, such as around the eyes, mouth, and lower face.
Hydrated skin looks plumper, smoother, and more vibrant. However, external factors like weather, skincare habits, and aging can all contribute to skin dehydration. While topical products provide temporary relief, microneedling helps improve hydration at a deeper level.
After microneedling, the skin becomes more absorbent, allowing serums and hydrating ingredients to penetrate more effectively. When combined with growth factor solutions or PRP, the treatment further supports water retention in the skin’s deeper layers. These treatments encourage better cellular turnover and renewal, contributing to long-term skin hydration.
The benefits of microneedling for hydrated skin include reduced flakiness, smoother texture, and a brighter complexion. In addition, patients with dehydrated skin often report improved skin barrier function and better tolerance to skincare products after undergoing regular microneedling sessions.
At Luna Med Spa, our microneedling services offer advanced treatment options that promote more effective skin rejuvenation. While traditional microneedling alone can stimulate collagen, pairing the treatment with PRP or AnteAge MD Growth Factor Solution can amplify your results.
Both options can be used on the face, neck, and other areas prone to wrinkles or laxity. These enhancements can provide meaningful improvements for patients interested in skin rejuvenation treatment that goes beyond surface-level results.
Microneedling is generally safe for most healthy adults and is suitable for a wide range of skin types and tones. It’s often recommended for patients with:
This treatment can be a good choice if you are looking to address early signs of aging without aggressive procedures. Microneedling for youthful skin is especially popular among patients in their 30s to 50s, but younger and older patients may also benefit depending on their skin health and goals.
Our team of Board Certified Professionals at Luna Med Spa will conduct a complete evaluation to determine if microneedling is the right fit for you. For optimal results, we recommend several treatments spaced a few weeks apart.
Microneedling appointments at Luna Med Spa typically take about 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the treated area and whether PRP or growth factors are used. The treatment process includes:
After treatment, you may notice redness, slight swelling, or sensitivity similar to a mild sunburn. These effects usually subside within a day or two. Most patients can return to normal activities within 24–48 hours.
For the best outcomes, follow post-care instructions, including gentle cleansing, sun protection, and avoiding makeup for at least 24 hours. Results develop gradually as collagen production increases. Full effects are typically seen within four to six weeks after the final session.
At Luna Med Spa, we take a personalized approach to cosmetic treatments, ensuring every patient receives care based on their needs and goals. Our team is experienced in providing microneedling for various skin concerns, from early aging to dryness and poor elasticity. We use advanced tools like the FDA-cleared SkinPen device, which offers consistent results with a high safety standard.

Luna Med Spa offers convenient appointments and a supportive environment where skin health is the priority. We are committed to helping you achieve smoother, firmer, and more hydrated skin through medically guided care.
The number of microneedling sessions varies based on your skin’s condition and goals. Most patients benefit from three to six sessions about four to six weeks apart for general improvements in hydration and elasticity. Additional treatment may be needed in cases of more severe acne scarring or more advanced skin laxity. Maintaining your results every few months will preserve them and encourage collagen production.
Microneedling is a proven method to support healthy collagen production, improve skin elasticity, and enhance hydration. Whether you are experiencing early signs of aging or dryness or want to maintain a youthful appearance, this treatment offers a safe, effective option with minimal downtime. The benefits extend beyond the surface, promoting long-term strength, tone, and texture improvements.
