Microneedling for Acne and Rejuvenation | Dr. Dipali Dambal

Flawless skin is something many people strive for, but acne scars and uneven skin texture can often stand in the way. Whether you’ve battled acne in the past or are looking for a treatment that restores your skin’s youthful glow, microneedling is a proven solution that combines science and skin aesthetics. At her Pune-based clinic, Dr. Dipali Dambal, a skilled Consultant Dentist & Cosmetologist, offers safe and effective microneedling treatments tailored to your skin's unique needs.

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses fine, sterile needles to create tiny, controlled punctures in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the skin’s natural healing process, boosting collagen and elastin production, which are key to smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.

This treatment is widely used to:

Reduce acne scars
Improve skin texture and tone
Minimize fine lines and wrinkles
Shrink enlarged pores
Address hyperpigmentation
Enhance overall skin rejuvenation

How Does Microneedling Help with Acne Scars?

Acne scars, especially atrophic scars (like ice pick or boxcar scars), form when there is a loss of collagen during the healing process. Microneedling directly addresses this issue by encouraging new collagen formation, which fills in and smooths out scarred areas over time.

Regular microneedling sessions can:

Visibly reduce the depth and appearance of acne scars
Even out skin texture and tone
Improve skin elasticity

Dr. Dipali Dambal customizes each session based on the type and severity of acne scars, ensuring optimal results while maintaining skin safety.

The Microneedling Procedure: What to Expect

Consultation: Dr. Dambal begins with a thorough skin evaluation to determine your suitability for the procedure and to discuss your goals.
Cleansing and Numbing: The skin is cleansed, and a topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort during the procedure.
Microneedling Session: A specialized microneedling device is used to create uniform micro-injuries across the treatment area.
Post-Treatment Care: A soothing serum or mask is applied to calm the skin, followed by post-procedure care instructions.

The entire session takes about 30 to 60 minutes, and most people describe the sensation as a mild prickling or tingling feeling.

Recovery and Results

Microneedling has minimal downtime. After the procedure, you may experience:

Mild redness (like a sunburn)
Slight swelling
Sensitivity

These effects typically subside within 24–48 hours. Over the next few weeks, you’ll notice:

Gradual skin improvement
Reduced scar visibility
Smoother, fresher skin

For best results, Dr. Dipali Dambal may recommend multiple sessions, spaced about 4–6 weeks apart, depending on your skin condition.

Is Microneedling Safe?

Yes, when performed by a trained and experienced professional like Dr. Dipali Dambal, microneedling is a safe and effective cosmetic procedure. She uses high-quality, medical-grade devices and adheres to strict hygiene protocols.

It is suitable for most skin types but may not be recommended for those with active acne, skin infections, or certain skin conditions. A personalized consultation helps determine if you're a good candidate.

Microneedling is more than just a cosmetic trend — it's a scientifically backed treatment that delivers real results. If acne scars, fine lines, or uneven skin are affecting your confidence, microneedling can help you reclaim radiant, rejuvenated skin.
