Microneedling is one of the most sought-after skin rejuvenation treatments available today, and at Dr. Tania Hassanzadeh’s practice, it is performed with precision and clinical expertise that reflect her advanced surgical background. Whether you are addressing fine lines, uneven skin texture, enlarged pores, or the early signs of aging, microneedling may offer a meaningful path toward smoother, more radiant skin. Dr. Hassanzadeh brings a fellowship-trained perspective to every treatment, ensuring that even minimally invasive procedures are approached with the same care and depth of knowledge she applies in the operating room.

What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin treatment that uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin’s surface. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural wound-healing response, which may help increase collagen and elastin production over time. The result can be skin that appears firmer, smoother, and more even in tone and texture, though individual results may vary.

At Dr. Hassanzadeh’s Beverly Hills practice, microneedling may be recommended to help address a range of concerns, including fine lines, mild laxity, acne scarring, enlarged pores, sun damage, and uneven skin tone. Treatment can typically be performed on the face, neck, and select areas of the body. Depending on your skin goals, microneedling may also be combined with complementary treatments such as exosome therapy to further support skin renewal, or with energy-based options available through our Lasers and Microneedling services in Beverly Hills. Your provider will discuss which approach aligns best with your individual skin needs during your consultation.

Are You a Candidate for Microneedling?

Microneedling may be a good fit for patients who want to improve skin quality without the recovery time associated with surgical procedures or more aggressive laser treatments. Ideal candidates are generally adults in good overall health who are experiencing concerns such as fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin tone or texture, mild acne scarring, sun-related skin changes, or dullness that has not responded to topical skincare alone.

Patients with active acne breakouts, certain skin infections, or a history of keloid scarring may not be appropriate candidates for microneedling, or may require a modified protocol. Candidacy is also influenced by your skin type, goals, and any prior treatments you have received. Because no two patients are alike, the best way to determine whether microneedling is the right approach for you is through a personalized consultation with Dr. Hassanzadeh. During that conversation, she will review your skin health history, evaluate your concerns, and recommend a treatment plan designed specifically for your needs. You can also browse patient testimonials to learn more about what others have experienced at the practice.

The Microneedling Process at Dr. Hassanzadeh’s Practice

Your microneedling experience begins with a thorough consultation. Dr. Hassanzadeh will assess your skin using a careful clinical eye developed through years of surgical and non-surgical training, discuss your aesthetic goals, and determine the appropriate treatment depth and protocol for your skin type and concerns.

On the day of your treatment, we typically apply a topical numbing cream to the treatment area to maximize comfort. Most patients find the procedure well-tolerated. The microneedling device is then moved across the skin in a controlled pattern, delivering consistent micro-channels at a depth calibrated to your specific needs. Sessions typically take 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.

Following treatment, most patients experience mild redness and sensitivity that generally resolves within 24 to 72 hours, though individual recovery experiences vary. You will receive detailed aftercare instructions to support healing and protect your results. Dr. Hassanzadeh’s team will guide you through each step of your post-treatment care, including when it is appropriate to resume your regular skincare routine.

Most patients benefit from a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart. Visible improvements in skin texture and tone typically develop gradually as collagen remodeling progresses, with continued refinement over the weeks and months following treatment. For patients interested in complementary options, our team may discuss whether treatments such as Botox and neuromodulators or dermal fillers could further support your overall aesthetic goals.

Patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding communities choose Dr. Hassanzadeh’s practice for its combination of clinical depth, luxury experience, and personalized care.

Results and What to Expect

Microneedling results develop gradually as the skin’s collagen and elastin production increases following treatment. Many patients begin to notice improvements in skin texture and tone within a few weeks of their first session, with more noticeable refinement typically visible after a full treatment series. Individual results may vary based on skin type, the specific concerns being addressed, the number of sessions completed, and how well post-treatment care guidelines are followed.

Patients commonly report that their skin appears smoother, more even, and more luminous over time. Fine lines may appear softened, and areas of mild scarring or textural irregularity may look improved. Results are not permanent, as the skin continues to age naturally, but periodic maintenance treatments may help support and prolong the improvements achieved. Your provider will discuss realistic expectations and a long-term plan during your consultation.
