Exceed Microneedling in Lake Mary

Exceed is a medical microneedling device made by MT.DERM, a German manufacturer. It uses fine needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin at a set depth. This prompts the skin’s natural repair process and new collagen. It is performed in a clinical setting by a trained provider.

A topical numbing cream is applied for about 30 minutes before treatment, so most clients feel light pressure or a mild scratching sensation. Bony areas such as the forehead can feel more sensitive. Your provider adjusts depth by area and checks in throughout so you stay comfortable.

Most clients have redness similar to a mild sunburn for one to three days, sometimes with slight dryness or flaking as skin renews. Many return to work the next day. Avoid makeup for about 24 hours, skip active skincare for several days and wear sunscreen daily.

PRP, made from a small sample of your own blood, can be applied during microneedling. Many providers use it to support healing and results, particularly for texture and scarring. It adds a blood draw and some time to your visit. Your provider will let you know whether it is worth adding for your goals.

Microneedling may not be suitable with active acne breakouts, cold sores or skin infection in the area, during pregnancy, after recent isotretinoin use, or with a history of keloid scarring. Certain skin conditions may also need a different approach. Your provider will review your history at your consultation.
