Should Microneedling Make You Bleed?

The short answer? Not really.

There are many reasons why some people bleed during Microneedling.

First of all: when doing Microneedling properly, the medical esthetician really doesn’t need to penetrate the skin too deep to stimulate the production of healthy, pliable collagen. So, if there is any bleeding, it is minimal.
The only time we choose a deeper needle depth is when treating acne scars or pockmarks. With some scars, we do need to penetrate deeper to achieve better results and really help to lift the scar.

Why is everyone bleeding all over Instagram?
Well, it makes for a good show!

Also, many needling pens bounce around and actually cause tearing of the skin. Our Microneedling pen works in a linear fashion - no bouncing. It creates perfect little micro-wounds, which stimulate collagen and elastin without the downtime.
