The scars, the texture, and the pores that won’t budge aren’t problems your body has given up on—they’re just stuck. Microneedling works by creating precise, controlled micro-injuries in the skin that trigger your body’s natural repair response, producing new collagen and elastin where it’s been depleted. The result is real structural change that builds over time, not a surface-level fix that fades in a week.
Microneedling Service in Hammonton, NJ
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses a professional-grade device to create thousands of micro-channels in the skin at a precisely controlled depth. Those tiny injuries do something that no topical product can replicate—they signal the dermis to produce new collagen and elastin, rebuilding the skin’s structure from the inside out.
At Awaken Aesthetics, every microneedling session is customized to your specific concerns, needle depth adjusted based on what we’re treating and where. No two treatments are identical because no two patients are.
What you'll actually feel during treatment
A topical numbing cream is applied before each session and allowed to fully take effect. Once it does, most patients feel little more than light pressure or a mild prickling sensation across the skin. Sensitivity varies depending on the area being treated and the needle depth used, but discomfort is rarely a reason patients hesitate to come back for their next session.
A realistic breakdown by concern
Your provider will look at your skin, ask the right questions, and tell you honestly what it’s going to take.
How results develop after each session
Most patients notice an improvement in radiance within the first few days as fresh cells begin to surface. The deeper collagen remodeling takes 2 to 4 weeks to show after each session and continues to develop for up to 12 weeks. This is why a series of treatments looks significantly better than a single session, as each one builds on the collagen produced by the last.
From the First Session to the Last, Here's How It Works
Before your first treatment, your provider performs a full skin assessment. Needle depth and any add-ons like PRP are decided based on what your skin needs. On treatment day, numbing cream is applied first so most patients feel little more than light pressure. Sessions typically run 30 to 60 minutes.
Redness for 24 to 48 hours is normal, and most patients are back to their routine the next day. You’ll leave with specific aftercare instructions and product recommendations.

The Concern You've Carried the Longest Deserves a Real Solution
Most patients who come to us for microneedling have been sitting with the same concern for years. The scars from a rough patch in their teens. The texture that no amount of exfoliating has smoothed. The fine lines that appeared earlier than expected. Microneedling works because it doesn’t try to cover any of that up. It rebuilds what’s underneath.
Come in, show us what you’re dealing with, and we’ll tell you exactly what a series of treatments can do for it.
