What to Expect From a Medical-Grade Treatment at Re-Medispa
Microneedling in Arlington Heights is one of the most requested treatments we offer at Re-Medispa. We use a medical-grade device to create precise micro-channels in the skin. Your body responds by producing new collagen and elastin naturally.
This page covers what microneedling treats, who it works for, and what to expect before and after your session. If you are ready to book, we make that easy too.
We are a licensed medical spa — not a nail salon, not a wellness boutique. Every microneedling treatment here is performed in a clinical setting by trained providers.

One Treatment, Multiple Skin Goals
Microneedling Treats More Skin Concerns Than Most People Expect
Many people in Arlington Heights come to us for acne scars. What they discover is that microneedling can address several other concerns at the same time.
Common conditions we treat with microneedling:
- Acne scars
- Large, visible pores
- Rough or uneven skin texture
- Post-breakout dark marks
- Dull or sun-damaged skin
Â
The Midwest climate works against your skin. Cold, dry Illinois winters strip moisture. Summer sun accelerates surface damage. Microneedling helps your skin rebuild from within by triggering its natural repair process.
Before you book, identify your top concern. That helps us plan your session from the start.
Why a Consultation Always Comes First
Your Skin Type Determines How Microneedling Works for You
Not every skin type responds the same way to microneedling. That is why we never skip the consultation.
We assess your skin tone and history before treatment. Different skin tones require different device settings. Our providers in Arlington Heights and Harwood Heights see a wide range of skin backgrounds and are trained to adjust accordingly.
Microneedling is not a do-it-yourself service. At-home rollers do not reach the depth a clinical device does. A proper consultation is always the first step.
Simple Steps That Set Your Skin Up for Success
What to Do the Week Before Your Microneedling Appointment
Good prep reduces irritation and supports better results. Follow these steps in the seven days before your session:
- Stop retinoids before your appointment — your provider will advise the exact timeframe
- Skip exfoliants — no scrubs, AHAs, or BHAs the week before
- Avoid active sunburn — do not treat over burned or damaged skin
- Stay hydrated — well-hydrated skin supports recovery
- Reschedule if you have active breakouts in the treatment area
Â
Arlington Heights summers bring strong UV exposure. If you are coming in during warmer months, it is important to arrive without a fresh sunburn. We may need to reschedule if your skin is compromised on the day of your appointment.
A Step-by-Step Look at Your Visit
What Happens During a Microneedling Session at an Arlington Heights Medical Spa
Here is what to expect when you come in for treatment at Re-Medispa.
Step 1 — Cleanse. We start by thoroughly cleaning the skin in the treatment area.
Step 2 — Numb. A topical numbing cream is applied and allowed to take full effect before we begin.
Step 3 — Treat. Our provider passes the medical-grade microneedling device across each treatment zone in controlled passes.
Step 4 — Serum application. During treatment, we apply a serum directly into the open micro-channels for deeper absorption.
Step 5 — Session complete. When you leave, your skin may look pink or feel tight. This is a normal response to treatment.
Patients who travel from Harwood Heights can reach our Arlington Heights location in under ten minutes. We recommend planning your appointment on a day without a social event that evening.
FAQs
Is microneedling safe for sensitive skin in Arlington Heights?
Microneedling can be performed safely on sensitive skin when a trained provider adjusts the settings and uses proper numbing. A consultation screens for any contraindications before we treat.
How many microneedling sessions do most people need?
The right number of sessions depends on your skin concerns and how your skin responds. Your provider will recommend a plan after your consultation — not before.
What should I look for in a medical spa offering microneedling near me?
Look for licensed medical professionals, clinical-grade devices, and a required consultation before treatment. At Re-Medispa, every treatment is performed by trained providers under medical oversight.
