What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a powerful yet minimally invasive treatment that helps smooth texture, reduce scarring, refine pores, and improve overall skin tone.
At NovaLx Aesthetics, we use the precision engineered M.Pen device to create microchannels in the skin’s surface. This controlled process triggers the body’s natural healing response: stimulating collagen and elastin production to rejuvenate the skin from within.
The result? Firmer, smoother, and more radiant skin with minimal downtime.
How We Treat It
Our experienced practitioners use the M.Pen’s adjustable needle depth to safely treat your specific concerns, whether that’s fine lines, acne scars, enlarged pores, or dull texture. A topical numbing cream is applied for comfort, followed by gentle microneedling across the face, neck, or décolletage.
The microchannels created enhance the absorption of active serums such as hyaluronic acid or growth factors, amplifying results.
This treatment is safe for all skin types (Fitzpatrick I–VI) and can be tailored for delicate or more resilient areas.
Results develop gradually as your skin renews itself: with a visible glow after one session and continued improvement over the following weeks.
