Microneedling with Dr. Sam Sukkar

Under the direction of board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Sam Sukkar, our Houston practice provides safe procedures that deliver visible, natural-looking improvements with minimal discomfort and downtime. Your personalized treatment plan will be customized to your skin type, goals, and comfort level so you can achieve healthier-looking skin that truly reflects your confidence.

What Is Microneedling?

Also known as collagen induction therapy, microneedling uses a handheld, pen-like tool with dozens of tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the surface of your skin. These precise channels activate your body’s natural healing process, encouraging the production of collagen and new skin tissue. The treatment leaves you with smoother skin texture, more even skin tone, and a noticeable improvement in scars, wrinkles, and stretch marks.

At CFPS, we also offer PRP microneedling, which combines platelet-rich plasma derived from your own blood with the microneedling process. The concentrated growth factors in PRP help nourish the treated skin, supporting faster recovery and enhanced microneedling results.

What Can Microneedling Treat?

Microneedling treatments effectively target a wide range of skin concerns.

Acne scars, surgical scars, and stretch marks
Fine lines and wrinkles caused by aging skin
Uneven skin tone and skin discoloration from sun damage or prolonged sun exposure
Rough or dull skin texture
Enlarged or large pores
Lax or thinning skin tissue on the face, neck, or body

Because microneedling is heat-free and chemical-free, it’s safe for most skin types, including darker skin tones.

The Microneedling Procedure

Your microneedling appointment starts with a gentle topical anesthetic or numbing cream to ensure comfort. Once your skin is cleansed and prepped, your provider will glide the pen-like tool across the treatment area, moving the tool evenly to achieve consistent coverage. You may feel light pressure or small pricks as the thin needles penetrate the surface.

If you’ve chosen to get PRP microneedling, your provider will apply your own platelet-rich plasma immediately afterward, allowing growth factors to penetrate the microchannels and accelerate repair. The full procedure usually takes about 45 minutes to one hour, depending on the treatment area.

Recovery & Results

After your microneedling procedure, you may notice slight redness or warmth that feels very similar to a mild sunburn. This subsides within a day or two, and most patients return to normal activities the next day. As new skin tissue forms and collagen rebuilds, your skin will begin to look softer, clearer, and more refined.

Most people begin to notice brighter skin within one to two weeks, with continued improvement for several more weeks. For optimal results, we typically recommend multiple treatments, often a series of three or four sessions spaced a few weeks apart, to help you reach your unique skin goals.

Cost of Microneedling in Houston

When it comes to the cost of microneedling, Houston pricing can vary. The cost is based on the number of sessions, whether PRP microneedling is included, and the size of the treatment area. Prices generally start around $400 to $800 per session, with discounted packages available for multiple treatments.

During your consultation, we’ll customize your plan and provide a detailed estimate, along with information on financing options. Investing in professional microneedling treatments performed under medical supervision ensures the best, safest outcome for your skin.

Microneedling FAQs

How many microneedling treatments will I need?

Most patients benefit from three to four microneedling treatments, spaced about four weeks apart. Your exact number of sessions will depend on your skin concerns and desired outcome.

Is microneedling painful?

A numbing cream or topical anesthetic is applied before the procedure, so discomfort is minimal. Most patients describe it as feeling like light pressure or a mild prickling sensation.

Can microneedling help with acne scars and stretch marks?

Yes. Microneedling is highly effective for improving acne scars, surgical scars, and stretch marks by stimulating collagen remodeling and encouraging new skin tissue growth.

How soon will I see microneedling results?

You may start to notice brighter, smoother skin within one to two weeks, with continued improvement as collagen builds. Results improve with multiple treatments and proper skin care.

What’s the downtime after a microneedling treatment?

There’s typically minimal downtime. You may experience redness for up to 24 hours, but makeup and normal activities can usually resume the next day.

Can I do microneedling if I have darker skin tones?

Yes. Because microneedling doesn’t use heat or light, it’s a safe procedure for all skin types, even darker skin tones prone to pigmentation issues.

Can microneedling be combined with other cosmetic treatments?

Absolutely. Many patients pair microneedling with light chemical peels, laser rejuvenation, or platelet-rich plasma therapy for enhanced tone and texture improvement.
