Book NowGive uneven texture a new direction.
Microneedling uses very fine needles to make tiny openings in the skin. As your skin repairs, it builds collagen that can help soften fine lines and some acne scars over time.
Smoother-looking texture
Help uneven texture and indented acne scars look less noticeable. Your provider will check which types of scarring may respond.
Face, neck & décolleté
Bring care to the areas you notice most. XO offers face, neck and décolleté options, with treatment adjusted for each area.
Softer fine lines
Encourage collagen for a gradual softening of fine lines. A series of visits may be recommended.

GOOD QUESTIONS. CLEARER CHOICES.
Let’s talk about Microneedling.
A few things to know before your visit. Have another question? We’re happy to help.
IMPORTANT TREATMENT INFORMATION
Read about recovery, side effects and who should avoid treatment in the questions below. We’ll also talk through these details before your appointment.
Is RF microneedling the same treatment?
No. RF microneedling adds radiofrequency energy and has different considerations. See its separate page before comparing options.
What is recovery like?
Redness, tenderness and irritation can follow treatment. Your provider will explain the expected healing time, what to use on your skin and when to resume other treatments. Pigment changes and infection are also possible; read the safety information below.
Which areas can I treat at XO?
XO offers face, neck and décolleté options. Tell us whether your main concern is acne-scar texture, fine lines or another change so we can help choose the right area and approach.
What are the PRP and topical PDGF add-on options?
PRP is prepared using a small sample of your own blood. Topical PDGF is a separate product option, not the same as PRP or injectable PDGF. XO will explain the exact product, how it would be used and whether it fits your visit; these add-ons are not automatically included.
FDA has not approved microneedling devices to deliver blood products or topical products into the skin. See the treatment-specific safety guidance below.
Will I need more than one visit?
A series may be recommended, especially for texture or scars. Your plan depends on your skin and how it responds. We’ll explain the likely course and review your progress together.
Who should avoid treatment, and what are the risks?
Possible effects include redness, bleeding, bruising, discomfort and peeling. Infection, pigment changes and other complications are possible. Discuss medical conditions, medicines, skin disease, abnormal scarring and recent treatments. FDA-authorized uses are device-specific; authorization does not cover every body area or use, or establish the safety of delivering another product into skin.
