As the years pass, the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production slows, leading to sagging, wrinkles, and a lackluster appearance. Factors like sun exposure, acne, smoking, and genetics can exacerbate these issues. Dr. Leonard Miller at Boston Center for Plastic Surgery offers an effective solution for these concerns: Microneedling. This safe and non-invasive procedure revitalizes the skin without the harsh side effects of many traditional methods. It’s a cutting-edge technique that can restore youthfulness without downtime.
Dr. Miller introduced cutting-edge microneedling to the United States. Microneedling stimulates the body’s natural collagen production by creating micro-injuries with tiny needles. This technique is safe for all skin types and ethnicities without the adverse effects that come with harsher laser treatments. It’s gentle on the skin, ensuring fast healing and superior cell regrowth for long-lasting results. Your treatment at Boston Center for Plastic Surgery will be performed by a leading specialist at the leading edge in advanced skin rejuvenation.

A pioneer in aesthetic medicine, Dr. Miller was the first surgeon to bring microneedling (Percutaneous Collagen Induction Therapy) to the United States, actively participates in clinical trials and develops new cosmetic products and skin care technologies.

Microneedling is an innovative treatment that rejuvenates the skin by reducing fine lines, wrinkles, and scars. Tiny needles create controlled micro-injuries, stimulating collagen and elastin production for smoother, healthier skin.
The number of sessions varies but typically ranges from one to six treatments, spaced about four weeks apart.
Results may be visible in as little as a day, with continued improvement over one to two weeks.
Dr. Miller uses topical numbing cream and local anesthesia to ensure comfort during the procedure.
While rare, risks can include pinpoint bleeding, pigment changes, and scarring, although when you are under the care of the professional team at Boston Center for Plastic Surgery, you can be confident that all health and safety protocols are in place, with virtually no risk.
