Microneedling has exceptional benefits, encouraging fresh skin and growing hair. At Yang Institute of Integrative Medicine, we combine microneedling services with enhancing therapies like peptide therapy. These complementary treatments can significantly boost the results of your microneedling session.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that stimulates the skin’s natural healing process by creating controlled micro-injuries. Using tiny, fine needles, practitioners gently puncture the outer layer of your skin (the epidermis), triggering the production of collagen and elastin, the essential proteins that support skin structure, firmness, and elasticity. This process not only improves skin texture and appearance, but also helps revitalize the skin and stimulate hair follicles for growth.
How Our Microneedling Therapy Process Works
At the Yang Institute, we offer efficient, minimally invasive microneedling sessions tailored to your specific needs. The duration of each treatment varies depending on the area being treated but you can typically expect to be in the office for thirty minutes to one hour.
Before beginning, we apply a topical anesthetic to the treatment area to ensure your comfort. The numbing ointment requires 30 minutes to an hour to take effect, depending on the size and location of the area being treated. Once the skin is numb, we use advanced electrical microneedling equipment to create tiny punctures in the skin. This process may cause slight bleeding, which is typically brief and can be soothed with a cooling mask or topical treatment.
To maximize the benefits of your microneedling session, we incorporate additional therapies such as peptides. These therapies support skin regeneration, accelerate healing, and enhance the overall results.
The Advantages of Microneedling
Microneedling offers a wide range of benefits for both skin and hair:
- Collagen Boost: Stimulates collagen production for smoother, firmer and more youthful looking skin.
- Elasticity and Strength: Encourages the development of elastin, improving skin elasticity and resilience.
- Scar and Texture Improvement: Breaks down scar tissue and fibrosis, reducing the appearance of scars and improving skin texture.
- Pore Refinement: Reduces the size of pores by promoting revascularization during the healing process.
- Blackhead Reduction: Helps free clogged pores and reduce the appearance of blackheads.
- Exfoliation: Gently exfoliates the skin, removing dead cells for a smoother, more radiant complexion.
- Hair Growth: Stimulates hair follicles, promoting new hair growth and improving hair density and vitality
- Scalp Health: Restores the health of the scalp, creating a better environment for hair to thrive.

Why Pair It With Other Skin Therapies?
Our team can enhance the benefits of microneedling with unique additions to the rejuvenation process. Enhancing microneedling with advanced regenerative therapies can boost its existing advantages and offer additional benefits. Yang Institute can pair microneedling with:
Peptides
Peptides are the foundation of proteins that are essential in reducing fine lines, hair thinning and wrinkles, as well as encouraging collagen production and protecting the skin from UV rays and pollution. Microneedling introduces the peptides to the skin through micro punctures so they can reach deeper into your skin than topicals. We encourage peptide microneedling for hair loss and other hair issues.
