No, microneedling should not be painful. Most clients describe the treatment as mildly prickly, rather than painful. For enhanced comfort, we apply a topical numbing cream over the treatment area before each session.

Why Microneedling?
Microneedling creates controlled microinjuries that activate collagen and elastin production. This renews texture, improves firmness, and allows serums to absorb more effectively.
How Does Microneedling Work?
Microneedling creates tiny microchannels in the skin that activate your body’s natural repair process. As collagen and elastin levels rebuild, your texture becomes smoother, your tone evens out, and your skin gradually takes on a firmer, more refined look.
For this process, we use Morpheus8 in Chicago at Nuva Haus. It focuses on controlled surface renewal and is an effective way to encourage long-term skin rejuvenation.
