For this procedure, we numb every patient for 45 minutes using a topical numbing solution, optimizing patient comfort. Typically patients will have mild discomfort after numbing. We adjust settings on the microneedling pen to ensure we are adequately treating your specific concerns and the procedure itself takes approximately 30 minutes. You are also able to feel a slight vibrating sensation from the pen working.
