Microneedling is one those treatments that almost feels too simple for how powerful it is. Using a specialized device equipped with ultra-fine needles, microneedling creates precise micro-channels in the skin, stimulating a natural healing response that boosts collagen and elastin production. Microneedling’s controlled rejuvenation process helps reduce fine lines, acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven texture while enhancing the skin’s firmness and radiance over time. Additionally, Dr. Seify is able to tailor each session to your specific concerns, because of how customizable and safe microneedling is for most skin types, ensuring results that are both natural-looking and clinically effective.
Microneedling offers a wide range of skin-rejuvenating benefits, which is why it has become one of the most requested treatments at Newport Plastic Surgery. Under Dr. Seify’s expert care, this collagen-stimulating procedure helps improve the skin from the inside out, delivering noticeable yet natural-looking results.
Microneedling:
Every patient’s skin is unique, which is why Dr. Seify begins each microneedling journey with a thorough, personalized consultation at Newport Plastic Surgery. During this visit, he performs a detailed evaluation of your skin’s texture, tone, and overall condition to determine whether microneedling is the most effective treatment for your concerns. His assessment allows him to tailor a treatment plan that aligns with your skin type, goals, and any underlying conditions that may influence your results.
Dr. Seify also takes time to explain what you can realistically expect from microneedling, including how many sessions may be recommended, the typical healing process, and what level of discomfort you might experience. While microneedling is minimally invasive with little downtime, it’s still important for patients to understand the procedure fully. Dr. Seify is committed to transparency and will review any potential risks or temporary side effects, so you feel well-informed and confident in your decision to move forward.

A microneedling treatment at Newport Plastic Surgery is a carefully controlled procedure designed to rejuvenate the skin from within. Under Dr. Hisham Seify’s expert supervision, the treatment begins with cleansing the skin and applying a topical numbing cream to ensure comfort throughout the session. Once your skin is prepared, a specialized microneedling device equipped with ultra‑fine needles is passed gently across the treatment area, creating thousands of microscopic channels in the skin’s surface. These micro‑injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing response, triggering new collagen and elastin production.
The treatment typically takes 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the areas being addressed. You may feel a light vibration or prickling sensation, but most find the experience very tolerable thanks to the numbing process. After the procedure, your skin may appear slightly pink or feel warm, which is often compared to the symptoms of a mild sunburn, but these effects usually fade within a day or two. As the skin begins to repair itself, patients notice gradual improvements in texture, firmness, and overall radiance, with results continuing to build over the following weeks.
Microneedling requires very little downtime, but proper aftercare is important to ensure your skin heals and you achieve the best possible results. After your treatment, you can expect mild redness, warmth, or sensitivity for the first 24 to 48 hours. These mild side effects are completely normal and typically fade quickly as the skin begins its natural repair process.
To support healing, Dr. Seify provides clear aftercare instructions tailored to your skin’s needs. Patients are advised to keep the skin clean, avoid makeup for the first day, and use only gentle, hydrating products recommended by the practice. Sun protection is especially important because your skin will be more sensitive than usual, so daily SPF is a must. You’ll also want to avoid strenuous exercise, heat exposure, and active skincare ingredients, such as retinol or exfoliants, for several days.
Most patients resume normal activities within a day. Visible improvements in texture and radiance begin to appear as collagen production increases in the weeks following treatment. With proper care and a customized treatment plan, microneedling offers many people long‑lasting enhancements in their skin’s smoothness, firmness, and overall glow.
At Newport Plastic Surgery, Dr. Hisham Seify is committed to helping you achieve smoother, healthier, more radiant skin with safe, effective treatments tailored to your unique needs. If you’re ready to experience the collagen boosting power of microneedling and take the next step towards revitalizing your complexion, our team is here to guide you every step of the way.

Most patients describe microneedling as very tolerable. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to minimize discomfort. Your skin may feel a little more sensitive than normal afterwards, but cold compresses help with any inflammation and discomfort.
While some improvements will be visible after one session, most patients benefit from a series of 3 to 6 treatments spaced about four weeks apart for optimal collagen stimulation. Dr. Seify will help conduct a treatment plan with you during your consultation to ensure you achieve the results you ultimately desire.
Absolutely. Microneedling is effective on the face, neck, hands, chest, and other areas where skin shows signs of aging or texture concerns. During your consultation, make sure that bring these areas to Dr. Seify’s attention so he can determine if they’re treatable areas.
There is no strict age limit. Younger patients often seek microneedling for acne scars, while older patients use it to improve fine lines, laxity, and texture.
Professional microneedling uses medical‑grade devices that penetrate deeper and more precisely than at‑home rollers, leading to safer, more effective collagen stimulation and better results.
