Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that uses fine needles to puncture the epidermis. The microwounds created stimulate the release of growth factors and induce collagen production. The epidermis remains relatively intact during the procedure.

Microneedling initially was utilized as a collagen induction therapy for facial scars and skin rejuvenation, but it is now widely used for multiple indications, including transdermal delivery system for therapeutic drugs and in combination therapies. The indications for microneedling have grown as research and clinical applications have expanded widely in dermatology and dermatologic surgery.

In this textbook, the authors highlight the constantly evolving research and developments in microneedling techniques and instruments, along with microneedling’s applications in dermatology and aesthetic medicine. We are honored to provide a comprehensive and global perspective from key opinion leaders in dermatology and plastic surgery from around the world.
