How it Works
Microchanneling is a minimally invasive skincare treatment that creates tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin using a specialized device. This process stimulates the skin’s natural healing response and enhances the absorption of serums and active ingredients.
During the treatment, a device with fine needles is used to create microchannels in the skin’s surface. These channels trigger the body’s healing response and improve the delivery of serums containing growth factors, peptides, and other rejuvenating ingredients, promoting skin repair and regeneration.

The procedure is generally well-tolerated. A numbing cream is applied to the treatment area to minimize discomfort. Most people experience only mild discomfort during the procedure.
Immediately after the treatment, you may experience redness, swelling, and mild sensitivity, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects typically subside within a few days. Some individuals may also experience slight peeling or dryness.
Before the treatment, avoid using exfoliating products, retinoids, or other strong skincare ingredients for at least 48 hours. Arrive with a clean face, and follow any specific pre-treatment instructions provided by your skincare professional.
Post-treatment care includes:
- Avoiding Sun Exposure: Protect your skin with sunscreen and avoid direct sun exposure.
- Using Gentle Skincare Products: Stick to gentle, hydrating products and avoid harsh or irritating ingredients.
- Hydrating: Keep your skin well-hydrated to support the healing process.
- Avoiding Sweat and Heat: Refrain from intense exercise, saunas, or hot showers for 24 to 48 hours.
Microchanneling is generally safe with minimal risks. However, potential side effects can include temporary redness, swelling, and sensitivity. Rarely, some individuals may experience bruising or infection. Always choose a qualified practitioner to minimize risks.
Microchanneling is suitable for various skin types and concerns, including aging skin, uneven texture, acne scars, and pigmentation issues. Consult with a skincare professional to determine if it’s the right treatment for your specific needs.
Results can last several months, with improvements in skin texture and appearance continuing to develop over time. Maintenance treatments may be recommended to sustain results and support ongoing skin health.
