Multiple microneedling sessions for minimally invasive facial rejuvenation: an objective assessment

Abstract

Skin microneedling is a promising minimally invasive treatment option with the advantage of increased collagen production. However, multiple sessions are usually needed to maintain the improvement achieved.

Preliminary randomized controlled trial of antiaging effects of l‐ascorbic acid applied in combination with no‐needle and microneedle mesotherapy

“…In the subjective evaluation of the respondents, the treatment was evaluated as effective in reducing the signs of aging. Results of our study indicate similar effects of treatments; however, using of needles of 0.5 mm length does not cause bleeding and the patients can immediately return daily routines …”

Microneedling by dermapen and glycolic acid peel for the treatment of acne scars: Comparative study

“…Osman et al observed that the overall improvement was 70% in fractional (Er: YAG) laser side and 33% in microneedling side. Our study gave better results than their study as degree of improvement in our study was 80% as we used dermapen.…”

Microneedling combined with platelet‐rich plasma or trichloroacetic acid peeling for management of acne scarring: A split‐face clinical and histologic comparison

“…During the period of follow‐up, 3 end points were chosen for evaluation of the volunteers (baseline, after 1 month of treatment [2 sessions] and after 3 months of treatment). Two blinded dermatologists and 2 independent observers were asked to evaluate the improvement of each of the following criteria: atrophic scar appearance, skin texture, and overall satisfaction based on a 5‐point scale (none = 0%, mild = 1%‐25%, moderate = 26%‐50%, good = 51%‐75%, and very good = 76%‐100%) . The results were tabulated and compared to baseline for statistical significance with the Pearson chi‐squared test (Table ).…”
