What is Microneedling and How Does It Work?

Microneedling is a skin rejuvenation procedure that uses fine, medical-grade needles that create microscopic channels in the skin’s surface, stimulating the body’s natural healing response. This process encourages collagen and elastin production, helping to firm, smooth, and refresh the skin. By targeting concerns like uneven texture, fine lines, and acne scars, microneedling enhances skin tone and clarity, leaving a brighter, revitalized appearance. Each session is customized to your skin type and desired outcome, providing a versatile solution that addresses a range of concerns.

The Many Advantages of Microneedling

Microneedling offers a multitude of benefits by stimulating your skin’s natural regenerative processes. With regular treatments, patients experience comprehensive improvements in skin health and appearance, including long-lasting collagen support.

  • Enhances skin texture and tone
  • Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
  • Diminishes the appearance of acne scars
  • Firmer skin through stimulation of collagen and elastin production
  • Minimizes pore size and smooths complexion
  • Gentle, minimally invasive, with minimal downtime

You could not dream of a better team than Tucson Plastic Surgery. From the minute you walk in the door, every person you encounter is compassionate and welcoming. For going through such a scary process, they were patient, informative, and made it so much easier to digest. It truly feels like you have a team fighting for your health and advocating for your well being. Both Dr. Kurtovic and Dr. Mahabir are caring, confident, and masters of their craft. Doctors and nurses alike were there at the drop of a hat for any issues that arose post-op, and were always more than happy to take calls/emails and reassure me. I felt extremely taken care of and cannot recommend them enough. Bonus: their advocacy efforts are commendable and the office is gorgeous! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I cannot say enough about the level of care and concern from the team at this facility. They were all so kind and patient as they helped me achieve the results I wanted post mastectomy. They made the experience so much less traumatic then I had anticipated. I was stunned at how amazing I looked post surgery. I would HIGHLY recommend both doctors! They are amazing!

I had the pleasure of working with both Dr. Kurtovic and Dr. Mahabir for my mastectomy to implant reconstruction and revision with fat grafting. I cannot say enough about Dr. Kurtovic and Dr. Mahabir along with Virgina and the rest of the Tucson Plastic Surgery staff during what was certainly a fast and frightening year of my life. Both surgeons and staff were so positive, reassuring and compassionate from the minute I walked in for my first consultation. Dr. Kurtovic and Dr. Mahabir put my nerves at ease with their warm care and attention to detail in every aspect of their practice. I was lucky to have both surgeons of this amazing practice be the lead surgeon of my two procedures. I am so thankful to Tucson Plastic Surgery and the work they do. I am extremely happy with the results, and I can safely say with the help, support and guidance of Dr. Kurtovic, Dr Mahabir and Tucson Plastic Surgery, I’m ready for the next year and to be on the other side. I cannot thank you enough for your care and gratitude.

Met with Dr. Mahabir to discuss reconstruction options. Walking into his lobby, my husband and I immediately found comfort as the area is inviting and beautifully designed!! The rooms are just as beautiful and tranquil. I loved his confidence and his knowledge in breast reconstruction. He gave me my options and we selected 2! Double mastectomy with immediate reconstruction (implants), once I finish chemo, we'll go back in for my final surgery (DIEP flap). Dr. Mahabir was professional, kind and compassionate which is what you want from your surgeon! His staff were also very welcoming and kind. I highly recommend Dr. Mahabir for your reconstruction needs!!

What an amazing surgeon and staff. Dr Mahabir and Nicole Baca were awesome!! My experience with a breast reduction/reconstruction due to breast cancer 17 years ago was perfection. I'm so happy with the results and I'm just 6 weeks out. Did a Tummy Tuck for fun and can't wait to see final results in a few months. Fabulous all the way around from scheduling, to surgery to post op visits. Worth the 5 hour round trip drive from N Scottsdale to Tucson. Thank you...happy beyond words!

Both Dr. Mahabir and Dr. Kurtovic are health care providers who care for patients with dignity, and quality care. My mom was Dr Mahabir's patient, and she was treated with respect, humility and patience as we were trying to understand reconstructive surgery after my mom's breast cancer diagnosis. I am in deep appreciation for Dr. Mahabir and the care he provided to my mom; he practiced active listening, and treated both of us as human beings (something you rarely see in the health care system; especially, managing a cancer diagnosis). All staff at Tucson Plastic Surgery, since the moment you walk in are attentive to patients' needs. Both my mom and I felt welcomed and in positive spirits as soon we walked into Tucson Plastic Surgery's space. I am specially grateful for Virginia Van, Patient Care Coordinator at Tucson Plastic Surgery for always answering our questions promptly, and making sure we fully understood everything regarding my mom's care pre and post surgery. After the cancer diagnosis, every visit with Dr. Mahabir became a positive experience, and a break from the myriad of testing and doctor visits my mom and I had to attend. Tucson Plastic Surgery created a space for my mom and I to find relief and look forward to a life after cancer. Thank you for all your work!

Highly recommend Dr. Mahabir and his team! He listens well, is excellent at what he does and overall my experience was nothing but positive.

Nothing but good things! Dr. Mahabir and his staff have been wonderful throughout my surgeries and recovery. I had a preventative double mastectomy and immediate reconstruction in June and just this week had an implant exchange. The pre-care and after care has been nothing short of excellent!

I won’t have enough room to say everything good I have to say. Dr Mahabir changed my life. I have lived with neck and upper back pain for over 20 years. It’s gone now. Gone. Thanks to not taking advil for the pain my GERD is gone now too. As a side benefit one of the supplements I was given for better surgery outcomes has virtually eliminated my post nasal drip due to allergies. There is virtually no scars tissue from the procedure. The only thing left after three months are red lines. Much less than I was told to expect. On my skin these red lines will be gone on less than a year. My only regret is that is did not do this procedure sooner. This office is so professional. Staff answer calls immediately. I never felt like I couldn’t call and get answers to questions or concerns. The recovery was a breeze and I did listen to Dr M when he told me not to over do things because I felt so great. I followed directions with great care and had an incredible outcome. Dr M has a detailed preparation and post op protocol. He really knows what he is doing.

Why Choose Tucson Plastic Surgery for Microneedling?

At Tucson Plastic Surgery, our licensed aestheticians are led by our board certified plastic surgeons Dr. Kurtovic and Dr. Mahabir, and provide our patients with expert, tailored microneedling treatments backed by years of training and experience. We have a patient-centered philosophy and high standards of care, to ensure that your experience is comfortable and focused on your needs.

The Treatment Procedure Details

Your journey with microneedling begins with a detailed consultation to determine your skin type and specific desired result. Our licensed aesthetician will work with you to create a treatment plan that best aligns with your needs, optimizing each session for maximum results.

Preparation

The treatment area is cleansed, and a topical anesthetic is applied to ensure comfort.

Microneedling

Using a specialized microneedling device, tiny channels are created at a controlled depth, focusing on targeted areas.

Serum Application

After microneedling, a nourishing serum or the patient’s own rich plasma (PRP) may be applied to support skin hydration and healing.

After Your Microneedling Session

Microneedling has minimal downtime. Patients may experience slight redness, similar to a mild sunburn, for a day or two post-treatment. This typically subsides within 48 hours, revealing fresh, radiant skin. Full benefits become visible as collagen production progresses, typically within a few weeks. For best results, it’s essential to follow any post-treatment care guidelines, including sun protection and hydration, as recommended by your surgeon.
