North Platte Nebraska microneedling specialist, Dr. Simpson of Simpson Clinics of Nebraska offers cutting-edge microneedling that rejuvenates the skin for a fresher, more youthful appearance.
The face is one of the first—and most visible—parts of the body to show signs of aging. From fine lines and wrinkles to dark circles and puffiness, these changes to the skin’s appearance are often caused by decreased production of collagen and elastin, which naturally occurs as we age.
Microneedling is a revolutionary skin rejuvenation treatment that can reverse the signs of aging. It’s not just popular; it’s also extremely effective. One study found that skin that underwent four microneedling sessions spaced one month apart experienced a 400% increase in collagen and elastin six months after treatment. It just keeps getting better!

What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that involves pricking the skin in order to stimulate the production of collagen and reduce or minimize skin imperfections such as fine lines and wrinkles. Also known as collagen induction therapy, microneedling is a safe, more natural alternative to Botox and other facial rejuvenation treatments.
Technically a protein, collagen holds the body together by providing structure and support to the skin as well as to bones, muscles, cartilage and ligaments. It also works with elastin, another protein, to keep skin tight and flexible.
By boosting collagen production, microneedling creates new tissue that is more even in tone and texture, ultimately revitalizing the skin and creating a more youthful appearance.
Benefits of Microneedling
Our bodies naturally produce less collagen as we age. As a result, cell structures weaken and ligaments lose their elasticity. Our skin becomes thinner and starts to sag, causing the formation of lines and wrinkles and a less youthful appearance. Microneedling helps replenish collagen and reverse the effects of aging on the skin.
Some of the benefits of microneedling include:
- Improved skin tone
- Firmer, tighter-looking skin
- Reduced appearance of wrinkles and fine lines
- Brighter, more radiant skin
- Minimized appearance of age spots and sun damage
- Reduced discoloration
- Smaller pores
Microneedling can also reduce the appearance of acne scars, surgical scars and stretch marks.
The Microneedling Procedure
Microneedling harnesses the body’s own healing processes to rejuvenate the skin. During a microneedling treatment, tiny needles on a handheld device penetrate the skin, creating minor punctures. These microinjuries are superficial and temporary. The body responds by increasing the production of collagen and elastin to repair the damage and create new, healthy tissue.
The procedure is painless and quick. A topical anesthetic is applied an hour prior to treatment to minimize discomfort. After the treatment, a calming serum is applied to soothe the skin. While downtime is not required, it may take 24-48 hours for redness and swelling to dissipate.
Dr Simpson and his PA-C perform microneedling treatments as an outpatient treatment at Simpson Clinics in Lincoln County, Nebraska. Each treatment takes less than one hour.
