Microneedling improves skin texture and overall health without significant downtime. It stimulates natural collagen production to create smoother, healthier-looking skin. Learn why microneedling is one our most popular treatments at our Nashville clinic.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling uses very fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny channels trigger the body’s natural healing response, which increases collagen and elastin production. As the skin repairs itself, it becomes firmer and smoother.
Microneedling improves:
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Uneven skin texture
- Enlarged pores
- Acne scars
- Dull or tired-looking skin
Who Is a Good Candidate for Microneedling?
It’s especially beneficial for people who want to improve skin quality without lasers or significant downtime.
You may benefit from microneedling if you want to address:
- Early signs of aging
- Texture concerns or acne scarring
- Uneven tone or sun damage
- Large pores or dull skin
A consultation with a qualified provider helps determine whether microneedling treatments are right for your skin type and goals.

Enhance Your Microneedling Results with PRF
PRF, or Platelet-Rich Fibrin, is a simple add-on that changes what happens after your microneedling session ends.
A small amount of your blood is drawn, spun down in a centrifuge, and concentrated into a growth-factor-rich serum. Applied during treatment, it absorbs directly into the microchannels the needles create.
The result: less redness post-treatment, a smoother recovery, and more collagen production over time. Fine lines soften more noticeably and texture becomes more refined.

Why Nashville Patients Choose ElàMar for Microneedling
At ElàMar, we use the SkinPen, the first FDA-cleared microneedling device on the market, and the standard our providers trust for consistent, safe results across all skin types.
But the device is only part of the equation. Our Nashville providers bring years of hands-on microneedling experience and take the time to customize every session based on your specific needs and goals.
We also think beyond the single appointment. If microneedling is the right treatment for you, we’ll build a plan around your skin timeline, whether that’s a series of sessions or folding microneedling into an ongoing skin health routine.

What to Expect and your Nashville Microneedling Appointment
Before
Your provider may recommend avoiding certain skincare products like retinoids for several days before treatment. Arrive with clean skin and minimal sun exposure.
During Treatment
A topical numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable. The microneedling device is then passed over the skin to create the controlled microchannels that stimulate collagen.
After Treatment
You may experience mild redness and sensitivity for 24–48 hours, similar to a light sunburn. Most people resume normal activities within the days, with visible improvements developing as the skin heals and collagen rebuilds.
Book your appointment and our Nashville providers will create a microneedling treatment plan to support smoother, healthier skin.
Widely tolerated by most patients, microneedling is especially beneficial for patients with acne scarring, fine lines, uneven skin tone, and redness.
Microneedling does not require any physical downtime, though you will be red for 24-48 hours post treatment. During this time we also recommend you avoid working out or sweating. Some patients experience some light peeling for 5-7 days.
As long as you avoid sun exposure and keep your skin protected with sunscreen, microneedling is safe to receive in the summer.
Yes, we offer PRF as an add-on service to your microneedling appointment in our Nashville office. PRF helps with increased healing and result longevity.
