Has aging been taking a toll on your skin? If so, perhaps you are ready to do something about it. Look no further than micro-needling. Although signs of aging like lines and wrinkles are inevitable, there is no reason to accept their premature appearance. Factors like sun exposure, genetics, and lifestyle choices can cause your skin to age at a premature rate, leaving you looking older than you actually feel.
One of the hottest trends in cosmetic dermatology is the use of non-surgical treatment methods. Although many people think of cosmetic surgery as the only way to get truly dramatic results, many minimally-invasive procedures can rival surgical ones in terms of results. They can also boast superiority when it comes to fewer complications and less downtime.
Micro-needling is one such treatment option. It involves triggering your body into a self-repair process that helps minimize common signs of aging like lines, wrinkles, blemishes, and scars. Here are three ways that micro-needling can refresh your appearance by rejuvenating the skin:
- Reduction of Wrinkles, Scars, and Blemishes
Micro-needling has been proven to be effective in the reduction of many age-related skin problems. The treatment process results in hundreds of micro-channels in the surface of the skin. This prompts your body into removing unwanted, damaged skin tissue and replacing it with fresher skin that displays fewer signs of aging.
If you have more stubborn skin problems, multiple treatments can be scheduled to tackle them over time. Each treatment session will build upon the results of the previous ones, offering cumulative results in the reduction of wrinkles, scars, and blemishes.
- Pairs Well with Topicals
Micro-needling is even more powerful when used in conjunction with the application of topical skin care serums, gels, ointments, and lotions. The very outermost layer of skin is covered by a layer called the stratum corneum, which is composed of oils, dead skin cells, and cellular debris. These materials act as a barrier, preventing larger molecule sizes from penetrating beneath where they can be the most effective. Micro-needling allows them to bypass this barrier, greatly enhancing their effectiveness.
- Natural-Looking Results
One of the main advantages of getting a micro-needling treatment is its ability to significantly refresh your appearance without the need for surgery. The procedure affects the skin only enough to trigger a healing cascade that produces new collagen and elastin fibers. S
Micro-needling is also a treatment that works with your own body. You are not altering your appearance to an unnatural degree with this treatment. You are simply turning back the clock so that you look like a younger version of yourself.

Praise for excellence

Category: generalSince my first visit with Dr. Luxenberg, I have felt there is hope for my skin. Being an elderly woman of 88 years, a redhead with freckles and sensitive skin, it has never been easy for me to find a doctor who really took the time to be thorough with examination and treatments. Not only is Dr. Luxenberg the best dermatologist I've ever been treated by, but he also has a pleasant bedside manner and an amazing, interesting personality. I can tell that he genuinely cares if his patients are comfortable during treatments. When I was referred to Dr. Luxenberg, some three years ago, it was a very good day for me.
You will not find a better Dermatologist than Dr. Rosenberg
by Matthew Thomas
Category: generalDr. Rosenberg has been my dermatologist since 2005. I grew up swimming competitively while also playing water polo, tennis and volleyball and I knew my years in the sun would ultimately catch up to my skin. His proactive approach and thoroughness during my visits has been a tremendous help! Dr. Rosenberg also has a table side manor that other doctors should strive to achieve. His back office staff are kind, friendly and very timely when responding to questions and inquiries. I cannot say enough good things about him and his practice!!!

Surgery on face
by Christine McDonnell
Category: serviceDr luxenberg I was referred to Dr Matthew Luxenberg at the Los Alamitos office by a friend of mine. He came highly recommended. My L jaw line was extremely swollen and painful. I have presently seen Dr Luxenbery 2x so far. The day of the appt the front office staff & the nursing staff were kind & compassionate. My appts have been right on time so I never had any waiting. They used extra precautions due to covid so I felt very safe. I have been an RN PHN for over 30 years and know many many doctors that I have worked with and gone to as a patient. I have been so impressed with Dr Luxenberg that I felt compelled to write a review. Dr Luxenberg is not only an EXCELLENT doctor but he is also very compassionate . It is very difficult t find doctors that have both competency and compassion. Dr Luxenberg has BOTH . Most doctors would NOT have taken care of my medical problem on the 1st visit. They do an initial visit and have you come back . The staff got me an appt within just a few days & the doctor performed surgery on my jaw line at the FIRST VISIT. The office has a surgical room which most doctor offices do NOT have . They have you go t a an out patient surgical clinic or hospital to perform the surgery. This costs the patient a lot of extra money and Incontinence AND increased exposure t covid. It just goes to show how much Dr Luxenberg CARES about his patients & wants to take care of his patients as quick and easy as possible. MY face looks normal again & all my pain is completely gone. I suffered with this pain for over a year. I had went t a plastic surgeon initially in Jan this year . The plastic surgeon did a very poor job on my face and left my jaw line looking abnormal and did not even take care of my medical problem . I was actually in more pain following that appt. I enjoy my visits with Dr Luxenberg because when he is performing surgery he makes SURE the patient has NO pain during the surgery. He is such an excellent doctor he completed my surgery so quickl
Great!
