Precision Skin Renewal, Guided by Surgical Expertise

At Egrari Non-Invasive Center, microneedling in Bellevue is performed within a practice led by Dr. Sepehr Egrari, MD, FACS, a double board-certified plastic surgeon with more than 25 years of experience in facial rejuvenation and skin health. Dr. Egrari's team offers multiple microneedling modalities, including standard microneedling, microneedling with PRP, microneedling with PRF, and Morpheus8, a radiofrequency-enhanced version for deeper tissue remodeling. Each patient receives a personalized treatment plan designed around their specific skin condition and goals.

What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-channels trigger the body's natural healing response, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin — the structural proteins responsible for firm, smooth, youthful skin. As the skin heals, texture improves, scarring fades, and overall tone becomes more even and radiant.

Am I a Candidate for Microneedling in Bellevue?

Microneedling in Bellevue is appropriate for most adults. Good candidates include those who:

Want to improve skin texture, tone, or firmness without surgery
Are dealing with acne scarring, stretch marks, or hyperpigmentation
Have fine lines or mild laxity on the face, neck, or body
Prefer a treatment with minimal downtime and no surgical risk
Have not responded fully to topical skincare alone

Microneedling is generally not recommended for patients with active skin infections, open acne lesions, or certain autoimmune conditions. The ENIC team will review your health history during your consultation.

Why Choose Dr. Egrari and ENIC for Microneedling?

Unlike med spas with limited clinical oversight, ENIC operates under the direct supervision of Dr. Egrari, a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons and a nationally recognized speaker on facial rejuvenation. His understanding of skin anatomy at a surgical level directly informs how microneedling is performed and combined with other treatments at ENIC. Patients benefit from that depth of expertise at every level of their care.

What to Expect: Before, During & After Microneedling

Before:

Discontinue retinol and active exfoliants 5 to 7 days prior
Avoid prolonged sun exposure for at least two weeks beforehand
Arrive to your appointment with clean, product-free skin
Topical numbing cream is applied 30 to 45 minutes before treatment begins

During:

The provider passes a sterile microneedling device over the treatment area in precise, overlapping motions
Sessions typically last 30 to 60 minutes depending on the area treated
Most patients experience mild warmth and pressure; discomfort is minimal with numbing
If combining with PRP or PRF, the biologic component is applied immediately following needling

After:

Skin will appear red and may feel warm, similar to a mild sunburn — this typically resolves within 24 to 72 hours
Avoid makeup, heat exposure, and strenuous activity for the first 24 hours
Apply SPF daily and moisturize consistently throughout the first week
Results develop progressively; most patients see peak improvement at 4 to 6 weeks

Microneedling Subtypes at ENIC

Standard Microneedling: Surface-level collagen stimulation for texture, tone, and mild scarring.
Microneedling with PRP: Platelet-rich plasma drawn from your own blood is applied post-treatment, enhancing cellular renewal and healing.
Microneedling with PRF: Platelet-rich fibrin, a more advanced and concentrated derivative, provides sustained growth factor release for deeper rejuvenation.
Morpheus8: Combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy for skin tightening and subdermal remodeling — ideal for patients with more significant laxity.
