Nanoneedling

Silicon-tipped nano-needle cartridge

A gentler-than-microneedling treatment that opens microscopic channels in the epidermis to drive topical serums into the skin. Used for glow, surface brightness, and as a maintenance protocol between deeper treatments.

What it is

Nanoneedling uses a cartridge of silicon-tipped nano-needles to open microscopic channels in the outer epidermis. Unlike microneedling, the needles do not penetrate the dermis. The treatment is paired with topical serums (hyaluronic acid, peptides, vitamin C, brightening cocktails) that absorb through the open channels.

How we approach it

Nanoneedling is a glow and maintenance tool. We recommend it for patients who want pre-event brightness without downtime, or for maintenance between deeper treatments. It is not a substitute for microneedling — different tool, different depth, different outcome.

Serum is selected per skin and per goal. Patients with reactive skin are tested in a small area first.

What to expect

A thirty-minute, comfortable treatment. Mild flush for 30–60 minutes. Glow at one to three days. Texture and brightness refinement compounds across a series.

Candidacy

Best for patients wanting low-commitment glow, hydration, or maintenance. Not for deeper texture or scarring concerns — microneedling or RF microneedling are the right tools for those.

Indicated for

  • Dullness, fine surface texture, dehydration
  • Pre-event glow with no downtime
  • Maintenance between microneedling, RF microneedling, or laser sessions
  • All Fitzpatrick skin types

Not a candidate if

  • Patients seeking results equivalent to microneedling — different tool, different depth
  • Active acne flare or skin infection in the treatment area
  • Pregnant patients (cosmetic procedures generally deferred)

Before your visit

  • Effect is surface-level and short-acting; not a substitute for deeper protocols
  • Serums used during the treatment are selected per skin; some patients react to specific actives
