Too many people have sat in a treatment room with a screen propped up in the corner, talking to a doctor who isn’t really there. At The Infinity Glow, Dr. Kiran Bath, MD and Dr. Preety Multani, MD do things differently. They’re present, hands-on, and personally performing every microneedling session they recommend. As board-certified neurologists, they bring a level of anatomical precision to aesthetic care that’s genuinely uncommon in the med spa space. Their approach is built on trust, education, and results that look like you.

SkinStylus® Microneedling: Precision Collagen Renewal
SkinStylus® microneedling is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment designed to stimulate the skin’s natural repair process. Using a precision-controlled device equipped with ultra-fine, medical-grade needles, SkinStylus® creates thousands of microscopic channels in the skin. These controlled micro-injuries activate the body’s natural healing response, encouraging the production of new collagen and elastin—the structural proteins responsible for firm, smooth, resilient skin.
Unlike older microneedling devices, SkinStylus® is engineered with medical-grade precision to deliver consistent depth and speed, allowing treatments to be carefully adjusted to different areas of the face and body. This controlled approach makes it possible to treat delicate areas while still delivering meaningful improvements in overall skin quality.

The Science Behind the Technology
SkinStylus® works by initiating a process known as collagen induction therapy. When the microchannels are created in the skin, the body immediately begins a natural repair response. Growth factors are released, fibroblasts are activated, and new collagen begins to form in the treated areas.
As collagen production increases over the following weeks, the skin gradually becomes:
- Smoother in texture
- Firmer and more elastic
- More even in tone
- Better able to repair and regenerate itself
These microchannels also temporarily improve the absorption of professional serums and growth factors applied during treatment, allowing beneficial ingredients to penetrate deeper into the skin.
Common Skin Concerns Microneedling Targets
Microneedling is effective across a broad range of skin concerns because it works at the root level, triggering your skin’s own repair mechanisms rather than masking surface issues. Here’s a closer look at four of the most common conditions it addresses.
Collagen Stimulation
Collagen is the structural protein that keeps skin firm, plump, and resilient, and your body produces less of it as you age. Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries that signal the skin to ramp up collagen and elastin production as part of its natural healing response. Over time, this leads to visibly firmer, smoother skin with improved overall texture and elasticity.
Acne Scars
Acne scars form when inflammation damages the deeper layers of the skin, leaving behind uneven, pitted, or discolored patches. Microneedling breaks down that scar tissue and encourages the growth of new, healthy skin cells in its place. With consistent treatment, the surface of the skin becomes noticeably more even, and the depth of scarring gradually diminishes.
Fine Lines
Fine lines develop as collagen levels drop and the skin loses its ability to bounce back from repeated facial movements and environmental stress. Microneedling addresses this by rebuilding the collagen and elastin network beneath the skin’s surface, which fills in and softens the appearance of lines over time. The results are subtle and progressive, giving your skin a refreshed look without an overdone appearance.
Stretch Marks
Stretch marks occur when the skin is stretched faster than it can adapt, causing tears in the deeper layers that appear as streaked, discolored marks on the surface. Microneedling stimulates collagen production in these areas, helping to remodel the damaged tissue and improve both the texture and color of the marks. Results vary depending on the age and severity of the stretch marks, but many clients see meaningful improvement with a series of treatments.
Exploring Your Microneedling Options
We offer several forms of microneedling to match your skin’s unique needs and goals. Each option is performed by our physicians, who take the time to explain exactly what they’re doing and why, because client education is a cornerstone of how we care for you.
What to Expect During Your Microneedling Treatment
A Consultation That Actually Listens
Most consultations feel like a formality. This one isn’t. Dr. Bath or Dr. Multani sits down with you, asks real questions, and lets you do the talking first, because understanding your concerns, your skin history, and what you actually want to achieve shapes everything that follows. You won’t be rushed, and you won’t be told what you need before anyone has truly heard you. This is where the care begins.
How We Decide What Your Skin Actually Needs
Once the team has a clear picture of your skin and your goals, the treatment plan becomes more specific. Your providers carefully assess your skin type, the severity of your concerns, and any factors—such as sensitivity, active acne, or previous treatments—that could influence how your skin responds.
From there, they determine which form of microneedling is the best fit, how many sessions are appropriate, and whether enhancements such as PRP, exosomes, HydraFacial infusion, or Epicutis® Lipid Serum would meaningfully improve your outcome. Every recommendation is explained clearly so you understand both the treatment and the reasoning behind it.
Most importantly, the final decision is always yours. The team’s role is to guide you with expertise and honest recommendations, never pressure. You’ll always have the time and information you need to choose the treatment path that feels right for you.
Physician-Performed Care, Start to Finish: The Microneedling Experience
Every microneedling treatment at The Infinity Glow begins with thoughtful preparation. Your session starts with a gentle double cleanse performed by a licensed esthetician, ensuring the skin is perfectly clean and balanced before treatment begins. This step isn’t rushed—it’s part of creating an environment where both your skin and your nervous system can settle into the experience.
Once your skin is prepared, numbing cream is applied if necessary and allowed to take full effect while you relax on a warm treatment bed surrounded by soft linens and calming aromatherapy. These details are intentional. The goal is not only to deliver meaningful skin results, but to make the experience feel restorative and comfortable from beginning to end.
When treatment begins, microneedling is performed with the SkinStylus® medical microneedling system, a precision device designed to create controlled microchannels that stimulate collagen production and skin renewal. Depth, technique, and treatment patterns are carefully adjusted throughout the session based on your skin’s needs, ensuring the stimulation is both effective and respectful of the skin barrier.
Rather than feeling clinical or rushed, the entire experience is designed to feel intentional, luxurious, and results-focused. Every step—from preparation to post-treatment care—is performed with careful attention, so you leave not only with skin that is actively regenerating, but with the feeling that your care was truly considered.
Protecting Your Results After Your Session
What you do in the 48 hours after your session has a direct impact on how well your skin heals and how strong your results are. Your physician will give you clear, straightforward aftercare instructions covering what to apply, what to avoid, and what’s normal to experience as your skin recovers. Redness and mild sensitivity are expected and typically resolve within one to two days. Skipping harsh actives, staying out of direct sun, and keeping the skin hydrated are small steps that make a meaningful difference.
Your Doctors Stay Involved After Your Visit
A follow-up isn’t an afterthought here. It’s a built-in part of how Dr. Bath and Dr. Multani approach your care. They check in on how your skin has responded, address any questions that came up during recovery, and reassess your plan if adjustments are needed. If additional sessions are recommended, that conversation is grounded in what they’re actually seeing in your skin, not a standard upsell. Your progress matters to them beyond the day of your appointment.
How long is Microneedling downtime and when do you see results?
Microneedling involves far less downtime than more aggressive resurfacing treatments, but it’s helpful to understand what the first 24 to 72 hours typically look like. Immediately after treatment, the skin will appear pink to red and may feel warm or slightly sensitive—similar to a mild to moderate sunburn. This is a normal part of the skin’s healing response as collagen production begins. Most clients feel comfortable returning to their usual routine within one to two days, though makeup is generally best avoided for the first 24 hours to allow the skin barrier to recover undisturbed.
To support this healing phase, every microneedling client at The Infinity Glow is sent home with Epicutis® Lipid Recovery Mask, provided on the house. This advanced barrier-support treatment contains lipid-rich ingredients and the proprietary TSC molecule to help calm inflammation, restore hydration, and minimize post-treatment downtime while the skin renews itself.
Microneedling results develop gradually, which is actually a sign that the treatment is working as intended. Because the procedure stimulates your body’s own collagen production, improvements unfold over three to six weeks following each session. Clients often notice smoother texture and a healthy glow first, with more significant improvements in scarring, tone, and firmness becoming visible as collagen continues to rebuild. With a consistent treatment series, results can continue to improve for several months, making microneedling one of the most rewarding long-term investments in skin health.

FAQs
What does microneedling do?
Microneedling works through a process known as collagen induction therapy, in which fine, sterile needles create controlled microchannels within the skin. These microscopic injuries activate the body’s natural wound-healing cascade, stimulating fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin while encouraging cellular turnover.
As this regenerative process unfolds over the following weeks, the skin gradually becomes smoother, firmer, and more even in tone. Clinically, microneedling has been shown to improve concerns such as acne scarring, enlarged pores, uneven texture, and early signs of aging. Because the treatment stimulates the skin’s own repair mechanisms rather than relying on heat or aggressive resurfacing, it can be used across a wide range of skin types and concerns as part of a comprehensive skin renewal strategy.
How much is microneedling?
Microneedling costs typically range from $500 to $900 per session, depending on the type of treatment and the provider’s level of expertise. Physician-led practices may reflect higher pricing, and for good reason: having a medical doctor perform your treatment directly adds a layer of precision and safety that’s hard to put a price on. A personalized consultation is the best way to get accurate pricing based on your specific skin needs and goals.
Does microneedling hurt?
Most people describe microneedling as mild pressure or a light scratching sensation rather than actual pain. A topical numbing cream can be applied before the session begins to keep discomfort minimal throughout the treatment. Sensitivity varies depending on the area being treated and the individual, but the majority of clients tolerate microneedling well with little to no discomfort.
How long does microneedling last?
Results from a microneedling series typically last anywhere from six months to over a year, depending on your skin type, age, and lifestyle. Collagen production continues to improve for weeks after each session, so your skin keeps getting better even after treatment ends. Periodic maintenance sessions, usually once or twice a year, help sustain and build on your long-term results.
How often should you microneedle?
Sessions are generally spaced four to six weeks apart to give the skin enough time to heal and produce new collagen between treatments. A standard initial series typically involves three to six sessions, though this varies based on individual skin concerns and goals. Your provider will recommend a schedule tailored to your skin during your consultation to ensure the best possible outcome.
What makes SkinStylus® microneedling different?
SkinStylus® is a medical-grade microneedling system designed to deliver consistent, controlled depth with every pass across the skin. This precision allows the device to create uniform microchannels that stimulate collagen production while minimizing unnecessary trauma to the skin. The technology behind SkinStylus® also allows treatments to be customized for different areas of the face and body, making it both highly effective and adaptable to a wide range of skin concerns.
When will I start seeing results from microneedling?
Many clients notice their skin appearing brighter and smoother within the first week as the initial healing process begins. However, the most meaningful improvements develop gradually as new collagen forms beneath the skin. This process continues for several weeks after each session, which is why a package of three treatments is often recommended to achieve the most noticeable and lasting results.
Is microneedling safe for all skin types?
Yes, microneedling is considered safe for most skin types and tones when performed with the proper technique and device. Because the treatment works by stimulating the skin’s natural repair process rather than using heat or removing layers of skin, it can be a versatile option for improving texture, scars, and overall skin quality across a wide range of complexions.
What is the downtime after microneedling?
Most clients experience redness similar to a mild sunburn for 24–48 hours after treatment. Some may also notice slight dryness or light flaking as the skin begins its renewal process. These effects are temporary and part of the skin’s natural healing response as collagen production is stimulated.
What should I avoid before and after microneedling?
Before treatment, it’s typically recommended to avoid strong exfoliants, retinoids, and excessive sun exposure for several days. After treatment, the skin should be treated gently while it heals. This includes keeping the skin hydrated, avoiding active skincare ingredients for a short period of time, and wearing broad-spectrum sunscreen daily to protect newly renewed skin.
Can microneedling be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Microneedling can be paired with treatments such as PRP, exosomes, HydraFacial infusion, or specialized serums to enhance results. These combinations allow beneficial ingredients to penetrate deeper into the skin through the microchannels created during treatment, helping support collagen production and skin repair.
