I have a very high regard and much respect for Dr. Moody. He saved my life when I was 29 after he diagnosed a late stage 2 melanoma on my right arm. He is the best and so is his staff!!

Overall Skin Quality
With topical numbing cream, most patients find Microneedling comfortable with only mild discomfort. The sensation is often described as light sandpaper moving across the skin.
Expect mild redness and sensitivity for 24-48 hours, similar to a mild sunburn. Most patients return to normal activities the next day with proper sun protection.
The initial patch application takes about 30 minutes. You'll return for patch removal at 48 hours and reading appointments at 72 and 96 hours. Total time commitment is minimal over one week.
Initial improvement may be visible within a few days, but optimal results appear gradually over 4-6 weeks as new collagen forms. Results continue improving for up to 3 months.
