Are you struggling with stubborn dark spots or uneven skin tone caused by sun exposure? Hyperpigmentation and sun damage are common concerns for many in Leawood, KS, but there’s a solution that’s gaining popularity for its effectiveness and minimal downtime: microneedling. At Advanced Cosmetic Surgery, our expert team is dedicated to helping you achieve a brighter, healthier complexion with state-of-the-art treatments like SkinPen microneedling.

What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses fine, sterile needles to create tiny micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. These micro-injuries stimulate your body’s natural healing process, boosting collagen and elastin production. The result? Smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin with improved texture and tone.

How Does Microneedling Help with Hyperpigmentation and Sun Damage?

Hyperpigmentation occurs when excess melanin forms dark patches or spots on the skin, often due to sun exposure, hormonal changes, or aging. Sun damage can also lead to uneven skin tone, sunspots, and premature aging. Microneedling addresses these concerns in several ways:

• Breaks down excess pigment: The controlled micro-injuries created during microneedling help break up melanin deposits, gradually fading dark spots and evening out skin tone.
• Stimulates skin renewal: By encouraging the shedding of old, damaged skin cells and promoting the growth of new, healthy cells, microneedling helps diminish the visible effects of sun damage and pigmentation.
• Boosts collagen production: Increased collagen and elastin help restore the skin’s youthful texture and firmness, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles that often accompany sun damage.
• Enhances product absorption: Microneedling can improve the absorption of topical treatments, making serums and creams more effective in targeting pigmentation issues.

What to Expect During Your Microneedling Treatment

At Advanced Cosmetic Surgery in Leawood, KS, your comfort and safety are our top priorities. During your microneedling session, a numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort. The procedure typically lasts 30–60 minutes, depending on the area treated. Afterward, you may experience mild redness and sensitivity, similar to a light sunburn, which usually subsides within a couple of days.

Most patients notice visible improvements in skin tone and texture after just a few sessions, with optimal results achieved through a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart. Our team will recommend a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique skin needs and goals.
