Microneedling in Fort Lauderdale

At Skin Ritualist, microneedling is performed with a results-driven approach to improve skin texture, stimulate collagen, and restore overall skin quality.

This advanced treatment is ideal for targeting acne scars, fine lines, uneven texture, and early signs of aging—helping your skin become smoother, stronger, and more refined over time.

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that stimulates your skin’s natural healing process by creating controlled micro-injuries.

This process boosts collagen and elastin production, helping to improve acne scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, and uneven texture—resulting in smoother, stronger, and more refined skin over time.

How the Process Works

Each microneedling treatment begins with a thorough skin assessment by our esthetician to determine the most effective approach for your skin.

A professional microneedling device is then used to create controlled micro-injuries, triggering collagen production and the skin’s natural repair process.

Targeted serums may be applied during the treatment to enhance results and support overall skin health.

The Device: SkinPen Precision

Our esthetician performs every microneedling treatment at Skin Ritualist using the SkinPen Precision—the first FDA-cleared microneedling device.

Unlike dermarollers, SkinPen uses a sterile, single-use cartridge with precisely engineered needles that create clean, controlled micro-channels in the skin. This allows for more consistent results, less trauma, and a lower risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation—especially important for melanin-rich skin.

Needle depth is adjusted throughout the treatment based on your skin’s condition and goals, allowing for targeted correction of concerns like fine lines, acne scarring, and uneven texture.

What to Expect During Your Session

Your microneedling treatment begins with a thorough consultation and skin assessment to determine the most appropriate approach for your skin.

The skin is then cleansed and prepped, followed by the application of a topical numbing cream to ensure comfort throughout the treatment.

Once ready, the microneedling device is passed across the skin to create controlled micro-channels, stimulating collagen production and the skin’s natural repair process.

After treatment, calming and hydrating serums are applied to support healing, followed by soothing measures to reduce redness and strengthen the skin barrier.

You’ll leave with personalized post-care instructions to ensure optimal results in the days that follow.

Post-Treatment Care

How you care for your skin after microneedling plays a key role in your results.

In the days following your treatment, you may experience mild redness, tightness, and light flaking as your skin begins to heal and renew.

During this time, it’s important to keep your routine simple—avoiding active ingredients, heat, sweating, and exfoliation while focusing on hydration, barrier repair, and daily SPF.

You’ll receive personalized post-care instructions and product recommendations to support proper healing and maximize your results.

I had my first-ever facial at 34, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! 🥰 As someone who practically lives at the gym, I’ve never taken skincare too seriously—usually it’s a splash of water, a little moisturizer, and calling it a day 😂 My skin is also fair and easily irritated, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Susie answered every single question I had before I even came in so I knew what to expect. She took the time to explain which products would be good for me to start with without overwhelming me or trying to oversell me. I really appreciated how she made everything feel simple and manageable! The facial itself was SO relaxing. I came in with a headache, and by the time she was done, I felt 100% better. The neck, face, and head massage had me feeling like a brand-new person! I left with glowing skin and a new appreciation for all she does, so much more than skin care! She even checked in with me the next day because she knew my skin was sensitive, which was so thoughtful. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the whole experience. She may have given me my first facial, but it definitely won’t be my last! 🤍

Beyond exceptional, the experience at Skin Ritualist is on a completely different dimension! Susie is truly a healer. The way her hands sculpt your face, moving with such expert flow and intuition is like a musician playing an instrument. It’s an experience that simply cannot be explained, it has to be felt! I have never experienced or seen anything like it. Susie is extraordinarily knowledgeable, not only about the nuances of the skin, but also about the ways internal health can influence its condition and overall radiance. Her expertise is matched by a genuine passion for her craft and a remarkable ability to make you feel completely cared for in helping you reach your goals. The atmosphere at Skin Ritualist is welcoming, serene, and professional, creating the perfect environment to relax. This is so much more than a skincare treatment. It is an art, a ritual, and a truly transformative experience. If you have the opportunity to experience Susie’s work, do yourself a favor and book a session. You will understand exactly what I mean.

Susie is absolutely amazing! She takes the time to explain each treatment and creates an effective plan based on your skin’s specific needs.

Amazing. Incredible. Show stopping. If you are going to spend the money to get a facial definitely get it done with Susie and use all of her product recommendations.This is worth the investment. I have been going to her every 2-3 months for about two years now and my skin has completely transformed. On top of the incredible skin benefits and transformation, she provides a calming spa environment and I always feel relaxed and refreshed after.

I’ve been seeing Susie for almost 4 months now, and my facial appointment is always my favorite day of the month! I get the acne correction facial and have seen such an improvement with my overall breakouts and inflammation with my consistent monthly facials and using the home care she recommends. Susie is a kind, informative, helpful and proactive esthetician, I highly recommend you book with her!

As a fellow skin professional there’s hardly anyone else I trust with my skin and very few people I’d recommend other than myself to clients. Susie has been and will always be one of my trusted recommendations. The before and afters of her clients speak for themselves but her haaaannndddds!!! Let me sing their praises, there are very few people properly performing massage and creating the lasting glow that comes from real lymphatic drainage techniques. Listen….run, don’t walk your skin will thank you!! Literally thank you Susie <3

Susie has been so wonderful and helped my skin so much. She’s knowledgeable and provides the perfect products for your skin. I came to her with mild acne issues and post acne marks and after three sessions, combined with the products she recommended, I have seen a big difference in my skin. My skin looks so much better now thanks to her. I can’t recommend her enough!

Frequently Asked Questions

How much downtime should I expect?

Plan for 1–3 days of visible redness — similar in appearance to a mild sunburn. Days 2 through 4 often bring light pinkness and a feeling of tightness. By days 7–14, most clients notice the skin beginning to feel smoother and look more even. Social downtime is minimal for most people, though some prefer to stay makeup-free for the first 24–48 hours.

Microneedling is not recommended for clients who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have active acne breakouts or open lesions in the treatment area, have a history of keloid or hypertrophic scarring, are currently using Accutane or have used it within the past 6 months, have an active rosacea flare, eczema, or psoriasis in the treatment zone, or are taking blood-thinning medications. A full skin history is reviewed before every session to make sure microneedling is the right fit.

An initial glow and improvement in skin texture is often visible within 2 weeks as the skin heals and surface renewal completes. Deeper results — particularly collagen remodeling for acne scarring — continue developing for up to 6 weeks after a single session. Full, cumulative results from a complete series are typically visible at the 3–6 month mark.

For general skin rejuvenation, brightening, and fine lines, most clients see strong results with a series of 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Deeper acne scarring typically requires 4–6 sessions, sometimes more depending on severity. Susie will give a realistic session recommendation during your consultation based on your specific concerns — not a one-size-fits-all package.

Single sessions typically range from $350–$650 in Fort Lauderdale, compared to the national average of $200–$500. Learn more about microneedling cost in Fort Lauderdale.

There is no single best age — it depends on your skin concerns, not your birthday. Most people start in their mid-to-late 20s as a preventative measure, while others begin in their 30s and 40s to address fine lines, pigmentation, and texture. There is no upper age limit either. Susie will recommend the right time based on your skin during consultation. Read the full breakdown here.

They treat different things, so it is not a direct competition. Botox relaxes muscles to smooth expression lines — forehead, crow’s feet, frown lines. Microneedling stimulates collagen to improve texture, tone, scarring, and skin quality overall. One is not better than the other — the right choice depends entirely on your concern. Many clients benefit from both at different points in their routine. Learn more about microneedling vs. Botox to find out which is right for your skin.

Most clients report their skin looking noticeably younger after a completed series — smoother texture, tighter pores, reduced pigmentation, and a more even tone all contribute to a fresher, more rested appearance. Realistically, a well-executed series can visibly turn back early-to-moderate signs of aging, though results depend on your starting point, age, and how consistently you maintain treatment. Learn more about how many years microneedling can take off your face and what to realistically expect.
