What is microneedling?
If over-the-counter skin care products are no longer providing you with so-so results, learn more about our treatments to rejuvenate the skin, such as microneedling with the Dermapen. Our team at Jansen Plastic Surgery is happy to perform microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) at in New Orleans, LA. Microneedling uses many fine-gauge needles to effectively and safely make micro-injuries in the skin. The micro-injuries trigger the natural production of collagen and elastin, two nutrients that contribute to the appearance and health of your skin. Easily performed with other treatments like vitamin serums, microneedling can help reduce pores, scars, and stretch marks. Make an appointment for a consultation at Jansen Plastic Surgery to discover more about microneedling and how we can customize your Dermapen treatment to meet your needs and goals.
Your microneedling results
Typically, you will see results after the first treatment. Lasting and more significant results will become visible after 4 – 6 treatments (spaced 4 – 6 weeks apart). The condition of your skin will continue to improve over the next 6 – 12 months after a course of treatments, especially when combined with the recommended post-treatment care.

Jansen Plastic Surgery Our Reviews
Been with Dr Jansen for four years. He was a great dr to have on my side.
Dr. Tandon has been so kind and friendly to me over the past 4 years. Him and his staff, especially Shannon, treated me like family. I'm gonna miss seeing them but I'm glad my journey is done and everything is good.
Dr. Ravi Tandon has been nothing short of incredible. He was recommended to me by my surgical oncologist once I decided to undergo a preventive mastectomy and DIEP flap. I knew immediately after my consultation that he was the doctor for me. In addition to his impressive accolades and resume, he was patient and took time to answer all of my many questions. He was confident and encouraging, and he was exactly what I was looking for when selecting a doctor for such an intense procedure. My results are incredible. My healing process had no surprises. He and his staff go above and beyond. I truly cannot say enough positive things, and I cannot recommend him enough. I would give him and his team 10 stars if I could!
THE BEST SURGEON HANDS DOWN. VERY PERSONABLE, PROFESSIONAL AND I LOVE HIS TEAM AT HIS OFFICE....
Dr. Tandon and his staff are the reason I never had a minute of concern about my post double mastectomy breast reconstruction. They are quick to respond to concerns and really listen to the patient. The office is a well-oiled machine and two years past my surgery date they still remember me. And Dr. T's work is top notch -- the new girls are OUTSTANDING!

Frequently Asked Questions
Is There Any Downtime?
Generally no, but you may experience facial redness for 12-48 hours after the treatment. Most people are able to return to normal daily activities immediately after the treatment. Application of a breathable camouflage will seal the skin and cover any redness for an immediate return to work.
Can I Combine Treatments?
Are you wondering how soon you can have a DermaPen microneedling treatment after a dermal filler or muscle relaxant injection? While there is no clinical evidence that Dermapen treatments counteract with any particular injectable, it is important to let your clinician know if you have had an injectable treatment, or are planning on having one done in the near future. Your clinician will be able to advise you on when to schedule your treatment appropriately.
Is Microneedling Painful?
For minimal needle depths, Dermapen treatments are relatively painless. Treatments using depths over 0.5mm may require a topical anesthetic cream to be applied for 15-40 minutes before the procedure. This will render the treatment virtually pain-free.
