Microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy)

Eden Plastic Surgery offers collagen induction therapy (microneedling) to stimulate the skin's natural collagen and elastin production for improved texture, tone, and firmness. The treatment uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin surface, triggering a healing response that reduces fine lines, minimises pore size, softens scars, and improves overall skin quality.

Microneedling — referred to at Eden Plastic Surgery as collagen induction therapy — is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment available at this Miami practice as part of a comprehensive approach to non-surgical facial improvement. The procedure uses a device studded with fine, sterile needles to create thousands of microscopic channels in the skin's surface at a controlled depth. This controlled micro-injury stimulates the skin's natural repair mechanisms, producing a significant increase in collagen and elastin synthesis over the weeks following treatment. The clinical benefits of microneedling at this South Florida practice include reduction of fine lines and superficial wrinkles, improvement in skin texture and smoothness, minimisation of enlarged pores, softening of acne scars and other surface irregularities, and overall enhancement of skin tone and luminosity. The treatment is appropriate for most skin tones, including darker skin types that are not always suitable candidates for more aggressive laser resurfacing. A series of microneedling sessions spaced four to six weeks apart produces the most significant cumulative improvement. The procedure can be combined with topical growth factors or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) applied immediately after treatment, when the micro-channels allow deeper penetration of regenerative serums. At Eden Plastic Surgery in Miami, microneedling is frequently recommended alongside injectable treatments, chemical peels, or as a maintenance programme between surgical procedures. Recovery involves 24–48 hours of mild redness and sensitivity, after which patients can return to normal activities. This treatment suits Miami and South Florida patients seeking clinically meaningful skin improvement without the downtime of laser resurfacing.
