Revolutionize Your Skin Care Routine

The Best Microneedling in Ridgewood, NJ

Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that stimulates your skin’s natural healing process to promote collagen and elastin production. This treatment helps improve skin texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, minimize acne scars, and enhance overall skin tone and firmness.

If you’re seeking to transform your skin in the comfort of a serene, spa-like environment, Salt & Sky Wellness is the place for you. Our team is deeply invested in your skin health and treatment experience, from booking to follow-ups. Schedule a consultation today!

How Microneedling Works at Salt & Sky Wellness

Not all collagen induction therapy treatments are created equal. Rushed sessions, untrained hands, or poor technique can leave your skin irritated—or worse, underwhelmed. At Salt & Sky Wellness, we take the time to do things right.

Here’s what you’ll never encounter with us:

  • Harsh or aggressive needling techniques
  • Inexperienced or unqualified providers
  • One-size-fits-all skincare recommendations
  • Outdated tools or questionable safety protocols
  • Poor aftercare guidance
  • Pressure to book unnecessary treatments

What You Can Expect From Your Treatment Session

  • Personalized consultation focused on your skin goals
  • Pre-treatment numbing to reduce discomfort
  • Safe, sterile, and precise application using advanced equipment
  • Microneedling sessions tailored to your skin concerns
  • Post-treatment care that promotes healing and results

Microneedling Q&A

Microneedling uses a pen-like device with tiny, sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries trigger your body’s healing response to stimulate collagen production.

The result? Firmer skin, smaller pores, improved texture, and a reduction in the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and uneven tone. It’s a safe and versatile treatment for skin rejuvenation that works below the surface to restore and refresh.

To prepare for microneedling and maximize results, follow these recommendations:

  • Avoid sun exposure for 5–7 days
  • Pause active skincare products like retinoids for 7–10 days
  • Refrain from blood thinners (aspirin, fish oil) for 5–7 days
  • Avoid drinking alcohol for 24 hours
  • Skip hair removal in the treatment area for 4 weeks
  • Refrain from laser resurfacing for 3 months
  • Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin

If you’re concerned about preparing for your treatment, don’t stress; your Salt & Sky provider will ensure your skin is ready before proceeding with the treatment. Book a consultation with us to learn more about how to get the best results from your microneedling treatment.

Your results typically begin to show after the first few weeks as your skin begins to heal and regenerate. Most clients enjoy noticeable improvements in tone and texture for several months. 

With proper microneedling aftercare—including hydration, sun protection, and gentle skincare—you can prolong your results. For best outcomes, we often recommend a series of 3–6 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart.

Microneedling and Botox offer different kinds of results. While Botox temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles to smooth dynamic wrinkles (like crow’s feet and frown lines), microneedling addresses the overall health and quality of the skin. 

If you’re looking to boost collagen, reduce acne scars, or improve texture and tone, microneedling is the better choice. Many clients combine the two for comprehensive results—Botox for expression lines, microneedling for overall rejuvenation.

Both treatments promote healthier-looking skin, but they work in different ways. Microdermabrasion exfoliates the surface of the skin using a gentle abrasive tool, helping remove dullness, dead skin cells, and minor discoloration. 

Microneedling goes deeper, stimulating collagen at the dermal level. When deciding between microdermabrasion vs. microneedling, consider your goals: microneedling is ideal for addressing deeper concerns like acne scars and fine lines, while microdermabrasion is great for surface-level glow.

Most clients are surprised by how tolerable the treatment is. Before we begin, a topical numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable throughout the session. You may feel light pressure or a slight prickling sensation during treatment, but it’s generally very manageable. 

Afterward, your skin may feel warm or tight, similar to a mild sunburn, for a day or two. If a fear of painful treatments has been holding you back from trying microneedling, book a consultation with Salt & Sky today. Comfort is always our top priority—we can walk you through skin rejuvenating treatment options to find what works for you.

Following your treatment, your skin may appear red or slightly swollen—both completely normal and short-lived. You’ll want to avoid makeup, direct sun exposure, and active ingredients like retinoids or exfoliants for a few days. 

We’ll guide you through microneedling aftercare with product recommendations and specific instructions tailored to your skin type. Gentle cleansing, hydration, and broad-spectrum SPF will support the healing process and help you maintain the full benefits of microneedling.
