Microneedling is a medical skin rejuvenation technique that uses fine micro-needles to naturally stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. At My Laser Maroc, we offer microneedling at our centers in Casablanca and Tangier, often combined with mesotherapy or PRP to enhance results. Ideal for treating acne scars, fine lines, and enlarged pores, and restoring a radiant complexion.
Microneedling vs. other treatments: What's the difference?
Microneedling differs from other skin regeneration techniques in its ability to stimulate collagen deep within the skin without damaging the outer layer:
- Microneedling vs. mesotherapy: Microneedling creates mechanical micro-channels (needles), while mesotherapy directly injects active ingredients. When combined, they amplify the results. Learn more.
- Microneedling vs. TCA peel: The peel exfoliates the surface, while microneedling regenerates the skin deep down. They complement each other.
- Microneedling vs. fractional laser: Microneedling is gentler, requires no downtime, and is suitable for olive and dark skin tones (phototypes IV–VI).
- Microneedling vs. PRP: PRP (your own plasma) can be applied during microneedling to accelerate results (the “vampire facial” protocol).
At My Laser Maroc, we assess your skin during your complimentary consultation to determine the best treatment plan (microneedling alone, or a combination of mesotherapy, PRP, and chemical peels).
Indications for microneedling: Who is it for?
Facial microneedling at My Laser Maroc is recommended for treating:
- Acne scars (depressed, “ice-pick,” “boxcar,” “rolling”) — primary indication.
- Fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, mouth, and forehead.
- Visible enlarged pores.
- Mild skin laxity.
- Recent stretch marks (as a complement to laser treatment).
- Old surgical or post-traumatic scars.
- Dull complexion, loss of radiance.
- Melasma and pigment spots (in combination with specific treatment protocols).
Microneedling is suitable for all skin types, unlike certain lasers that require special precautions for olive and dark skin.
Combined microneedling: mesotherapy, PRP, chemical peel
At My Laser Maroc, we offer several combined microneedling treatments to maximize results:
Microneedling + mesotherapy
The micro-channels created by the needles allow for optimal penetration of the non-crosslinked hyaluronic acid + vitamins + antioxidants mixture. The result: deep hydration, immediate radiance, and accelerated regeneration. Standard treatment plan: 3 to 5 sessions.
Microneedling + PRP for the scalp or face
The "facial vampire" treatment uses your own blood plasma (rich in growth factors), which is applied during microneedling. Deep acne scars respond particularly well to this treatment.
Microneedling + TCA peel
Treatments spaced 2 weeks apart: the peel exfoliates the skin’s surface, while microneedling regenerates the dermis. Used for stubborn pigmentation and severe acne scars.
Microneedling FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions
Does microneedling hurt?
You may feel a slight tingling sensation, which is generally well tolerated. During the consultation, we can adjust the depth of the needles to ensure your comfort.
How long does it take to see results?
Visible results are evident as early as 7 days post-treatment. Scars and fine lines improve over 4–6 months (gradual neocollagenesis).
How many sessions are needed?
On average, 3 to 5 sessions spaced one month apart. Deep acne scars may require 6 to 8 sessions.
Is there social exclusion?
None. Redness lasts 24–48 hours, but can be covered with makeup starting on day 2.
Can microneedling be performed on dark or black skin?
Yes, that’s one of the major benefits of microneedling: there’s no risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation when the treatment protocol is properly followed.
How much does microneedling cost in Morocco?
At My Laser: starting at 1,000 MAD per session. Packages of 5 sessions available at a discounted rate. See our mesotherapy/microneedling price list.
