Microneedling is a newer skin treatment than microdermabrasion, but both are effective ways to treat acne scarring. Aftercare is similar, with recommendations to avoid sweating, direct sunlight, hot baths and perfumed products, and to use moisturiser regularly. Treatment times are also similar, with microdermabrasion sessions lasting around 30 minutes in total, and microneedling slightly longer.
Microneedling (derma rolling, skin needling) is great for depressed acne scars. During the treatment, fine needles gently prick the skin. This process triggers the breaking down of old collagen in the skin, which contributes to uneven skin texture. At the same time, microneedling boosts the production of new collagen as the skin repairs the tiny wounds caused by the needle. Many areas across the skin benefit from microneedling, including the sensitive hand, neck and eye areas.
Microdermabrasion is also effective at treating acne scarring. Unlike microneedling, microdermabrasion works on the surface of the skin, using exfoliating crystals. The fine crystals buff away any impurities, dirt, and dead skin cells. They are then suctioned off the skin, revealing newer skin beneath. The treatment stimulates collagen production, repairing the texture of skin. The cell renewal process addresses any discolouration. Therefore, the skin appears plumped and even after a course of treatment.
For sufferers with deep acne scarring, microneedling may be preferable, as the needles go deeper into the skin. Those who want to treat their acne scarring conveniently may choose microdermabrasion, as they can get right back to their daily life afterwards whereas there is more down time post Microneedling. A skincare professional will perform either procedure.
