Microneedling
Stimulate your skin's natural renewal process.
At CEMDEI, we believe in effective and safe solutions that respect the physiology of the skin. Microneedling is an innovative treatment that stimulates the natural production of collagen and elastin, promoting cell regeneration and visibly improving the texture, firmness, and appearance of the skin.
What is it?
Microneedling involves the controlled application of micro-perforations in the skin using very fine needles and specialized equipment.
These micro-lesions activate the body's natural healing mechanisms, resulting in the production of new collagen and elastin fibers. It can be performed on areas requiring skin regeneration.
When necessary
- In cases of fine wrinkles and signs of premature aging.
- To treat acne or post-surgical scars.
- In the presence of spots, hyperpigmentation, and melasma.
- To reduce enlarged pores and improve skin texture.
- As a complement to facial rejuvenation protocols.
- For skin that requires deep cellular stimulation.
Benefits:
- It stimulates the natural production of collagen.
- Improved skin texture and firmness.
- Reduction of fine wrinkles and expression lines.
- Reduction of acne scars and enlarged pores.
- Evens out skin tone and reduces blemishes.
- Overall skin rejuvenation, resulting in a healthier appearance.
Treatment
At CEMDEI, microneedling is performed by specialized professionals, following rigorous hygiene, safety, and personalization protocols. After cleansing and preparing the skin, a device with microneedles is applied to create controlled perforations. Depending on the desired outcome, specific active ingredients (hyaluronic acid, vitamins, skin lighteners, etc.) are added to enhance results.
The session lasts approximately 45 to 60 minutes. After treatment, redness and mild sensitivity may occur, similar to a mild sunburn, which disappear within a few days.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is microneedling painful?
It is not usually painful. Before the procedure begins, we apply a topical anesthetic cream, which makes the treatment comfortable for most patients. The sensation may vary depending on skin sensitivity and the chosen depth.
What are the aftercare instructions for microneedling?
After the session, it is important to keep the skin well hydrated, avoid direct sun exposure, and use sunscreen with a high protection factor. Makeup should also be avoided for at least 24 hours, and all instructions from the clinical team should be followed.
When will we start seeing results?
Results begin to be noticeable after the first or second session, with progressive improvements in the following weeks as the skin produces new collagen. The effects are cumulative, becoming more visible after a complete treatment plan.
How many sessions are needed?
It depends on the objective and the condition of the skin. Typically, a plan of 3 to 6 sessions is recommended, with intervals of 4 to 6 weeks between each session. An assessment at CEMDEI allows us to define the ideal protocol for each case.
