Microneedling in Pune & PCMC
Table of Contents
Many people struggle with rough skin, acne marks, open pores, or early lines. They try creams, but the results are slow or uneven. Microneedling is a simple, non-surgical treatment that helps the skin heal from within. It encourages your own collagen to grow, which lifts, smooths, and evens out the surface.
Most people say the same thing after treatment.
“I look fresher, but nothing looks artificial.”
That is exactly the goal.
What Microneedling Helps With
Acne scars
Open pores
Uneven skin tone
Fine lines
Mild skin laxity
Rough texture
Pigmentation from old breakouts
These are common concerns people share online. Many worry that their skin will “look worse before it gets better”. With microneedling, changes are gradual and controlled.
How Microneedling Works
Tiny, controlled microchannels are created on the skin surface using a fine-needle device.
These micro-channels trigger your skin’s natural healing response.
This leads to:
- New collagen production
- Smoother texture
- More even tone
- Better absorption of skin products
You see mild improvement within days. Full results appear over 4 to 6 weeks as the collagen grows.
Who Is a Good Candidate For Microneedling in Pune & PCMC at Chrysalis
Microneedling may help if you:
- Want smoother, fresher skin without downtime
- Have acne marks or large pores
- Prefer a natural, non-aggressive treatment.
- Want gradual, steady results.
Skin quality, scar depths, and sensitivity are checked in detail. Dr. Salil guides the plan based on your skin’s needs, not a preset package.
What Microneedling Cannot Do
- It cannot remove very deep scars alone.
- It cannot replace laser resurfacing for severe texture issues.
- It does not give overnight transformation.
Being honest about limits helps avoid frustration. Sometimes, combining microneedling with PRP or growth factor serums gives better results.
What Happens During the Session
- Skin is cleaned well.
- A numbing cream is applied.
- The device is moved across the face in small sections.
Most people describe the feeling as mild scratching, not pain.
A session takes 20 to 30 minutes.
Microneedling with Morpheus8® for Deeper Rejuvenation
Some skin concerns need more than standard microneedling. This is where Morpheus8® helps. It combines microneedling with controlled radiofrequency energy.
The needles create tiny channels, and radiofrequency energy simultaneously heats the deeper layers. This tightens the existing collagen and triggers stronger new collagen growth.
Morpheus8® is useful for people with deeper acne scars, early sagging, or an uneven texture that has not improved enough with basic treatments. The device penetrates deeper than traditional microneedling, resulting in smoother, firmer results.
Most people feel a mild warmth during the session because numbing is used. Recovery is similar, but the improvement is usually more noticeable over the next few weeks.
Dr. Salil uses Morpheus8® when your skin needs extra tightening or when the scars are deep and tethered. It is not for everyone, but it works well when chosen for the right skin type. It gives a natural lift and refinement without changing your facial features.
Microneedling: Aftercare and Recovery
Recovery is short.
You may notice:

Hydration helps the skin heal faster.

Acne scars soften. Pores look tighter. Skin looks clearer and more even.
A typical plan includes 3 to 6 sessions spaced a month apart.
Maintenance every few months helps keep the quality steady.
