What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a non-surgical skin rejuvenation technique that uses tiny, sterile needles to create micro-channels in the top layers of your skin. These controlled micro-injuries trigger the body's natural production of collagen and elastin—proteins essential for firm, youthful skin. As this healing response unfolds, you'll see gradual improvements in tone, texture, and overall radiance. Unlike more aggressive procedures that might require extensive downtime, microneedling is designed to fit seamlessly into your lifestyle, often requiring only a brief recovery period. At pēkomd®, our board-certified providers tailor each microneedling session to address your unique concerns, ensuring that your results appear natural and consistent with your facial anatomy.

Benefits of Microneedling

Microneedling offers a range of advantages that can revitalize your skin and enhance your daily confidence:

  • Boosted collagen production
  • Refined skin texture
  • Reduced appearance of fine lines
  • Softened acne or surgical scars
  • Minimized pore size
  • Quick, minimally invasive treatment
  • Little to no downtime
  • Gradual, natural-looking improvements

What to Expect During Your Microneedling Procedure at pēkomd

Your microneedling experience begins with an in-depth consultation at one of our Ohio locations, where a board-certified provider will evaluate your skin and discuss your concerns. On the day of your appointment, you'll be welcomed into a modern, comfortable treatment suite. After cleansing the targeted areas, a topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure a more comfortable experience. The microneedling device is then gently passed over the treatment area, creating a series of precise micro-channels in the skin's surface.

Most patients describe the sensation as a mild vibrating or prickling feeling rather than significant pain. The entire process typically lasts 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas treated. Our focus is on delivering safe, effective treatments that align with your lifestyle and aesthetic goals, so you can leave the office with minimal disruptions to your daily routine. Before you depart, we'll provide you with personalized aftercare instructions, optimizing your skin's natural healing process and helping you achieve the best possible outcome from each session.

Recovering After Your Microneedling Treatment

One of microneedling's main advantages is its minimal downtime. While you may notice some redness and mild swelling immediately after the procedure—similar to a mild sunburn—these effects usually subside within a day or two. During this time, it's essential to protect your skin from direct sun exposure and refrain from using harsh skincare products, as your skin will be more sensitive. You may also observe slight flaking or dryness as the treated area begins to heal, which can be managed with gentle moisturizers or products recommended by your provider. Most patients see visible improvements within a week, with further enhancements unfolding over the next few weeks as collagen production ramps up. By following our post-treatment instructions and using recommended skincare products, you'll support optimal healing and a smoother, more radiant complexion.

Are You an Ideal Candidate for Microneedling?

Microneedling is particularly suitable for individuals who desire a non-surgical method to address common concerns like acne scarring, fine lines, enlarged pores, or uneven skin tone. Good candidates generally have overall healthy skin and realistic expectations about gradual improvements rather than dramatic overnight changes. If you're seeking a versatile treatment that can be tailored to different areas of the face, neck, or even the décolletage, microneedling may be an excellent choice. During your consultation at pēkomd®, our board-certified providers will assess your medical history, discuss your lifestyle, and craft a personalized plan to help you look better, feel better, and do better in a way that fits seamlessly into your daily life.

Dr. Markov is one of the best microsurgeons in Southwest Ohio

I have had surgery is some of the top hospitals in Ohio and beyond. Dr. Markov is one of the best microsurgeons in Southwest Ohio, and the surrounding areas.His education, military background, and work experience speaks for itself. I have found him to be professional, highly-skilled, and he has excellent bedside manner. Dr. Markov treated me with respect, educated me about my options, and empowered me to decide what breast reconstruction option best for me. He approached my reconstruction surgery like Michelangelo to a painting. He was detailed oriented and cared about my final outcomes. I couldn't be happier with his performance. I highly recommend Dr. Markov for any cancer related or cosmetics surgery.

Mr. Dr. Fourman has been the best doctor hands down

Mr. Dr. Fourman has been the best doctor hands down so far that I have ever experienced in my life so far and I only have had my first office visit. He is so polite, listens and exsplained in full detail. He made me feel heard and he actually listened to me as his patient and did not belittle or make me feel like i was uneducated or wrong for my reasons to be vivisting his office. Thank you to Dr. Fourman and his wonderful staff members!

Dr. Straka is very personable, professional, and earned my trust right away!

My daughter first had some work done a few years ago with Dr. Straka. Of course she was/is a beautiful girl in every way, but this definitely enhanced things for her. I inherited the worst bags you could ever imagine. Getting older I thought let me do something for me! I scheduled a consult and I am truly sad that I had not gone sooner.

Dr. Straka is very personable, professional, and earned my trust right away! I am only 10 days post op and I love my new look already! Cristina has been very attentive from day one. I am still being checked on today. Dr. Straka is doing great things at pekomd! I highly recommend him to anyone!!!!!!! He gets a 100 stars

I would say Dr. Markov is a bit of a perfectionist.

After learning I had breast cancer a second time in 2023 I opted to have a bilateral mastectomy with a DIEP flap reconstruction. I looked into 3 different doctors and while I am sure they are all very capable, I chose Dr. Markov. He was straight forward and to the point and he was local. I really liked his approach and he made me feel very comfortable. Today I had my 4 week post op appointment from the final phase of the reconstruction and I am thrilled with the results. I feel and look like myself again. Honestly they look better than they did before my mastectomy. I would say Dr. Markov is a bit of a perfectionist. The only thing left, if I opt to do this, is the tattooing. I am not sure if I am going to do that just yet, because they already look so good. Anyhow, I would 100 % recommend Dr. Markov.

Wish I had done this 10 years sooner.

Don't put it off any longer!
If you have thought about weight-loss surgery, Dr. Fourman is the Dr. you need to see! He's very personable, understands and is caring.I followed all the pre op instructions, did out patient, in the morning, and was up and moving around very well by that evening. He's staff is wonderful too. There are no scary front desk reception. Everyone there knows what your going through. Wish I had done this 10 years sooner. Like I said...Don't put it off for another year!

I couldn't be more pleased with my experience with Dr. Straka and Kaleigh! Dr. Straka took the time to thoroughly explain my condition, answer all my questions, and walk me through the entire procedure.
