  I can say that my experience with microneedling has been amazing! I do go to Dr. Ellis (how lucky am I?!) and I’ve had it done 3 times along with laser treatments. I rarely wear any foundation anymore! At most I use a skin tint now. I just went to Maui and got several compliments on my skin! That has literally never happened in my life before. Being 45 and in perimenopause since 38, my skin had changed dramatically. I was pretty unhappy and decided to try something after watching Dr. Ellis’ videos. I am so glad that I did. If you are near to the Bay Area, you should absolutely go see her!

  I'm 73 (you didn't mention the 70's). I get microneedling every 5 to 6 months and I don't plan to stop. I love the results. I use a tinted sunscreen daily and that's my foundation too.

  These videos of yours are soooo VALUABLE!!  Getting this much time and detail with a doctor or clinician is nearly impossible.  So, thank you for sharing your wisdom and time!

  I have been doing at home microneedling for 10 years, every 2-3 months. I also do at home peels (glycolic, TCA) and my skin looks A+mazing. I don’t wear any foundation.<br>I get tons of compliments on my skin.<br>You too can do it at home.<br>I’m 58

  I use the Dr Pen M8S at home, 46 years old, done about 8 sessions so far, 4 weeks apart, I use it on my t-zone (forehead &amp; nose), I don&apos;t really need it anywhere else, it has worked wonders for my skin! Lifestyle tip: I do not eat sugar, I do not smoke &amp; only drink a glass of white wine on a special occasion (birthday, holiday, etc) , don&apos;t drink soda, only water all day, &amp; workout 5 times a week :)

  I recently had a series of 3 in office microneedling treatments and I am amazed at how much better my skin looks. I was somewhat skeptical about what kind of results I would see and I’m really glad I did it. My acne scars are much less noticeable now. I will continue doing these a couple of times a year. It was an investment but I feel it was worth it.

  I did not know this about micro needling so thank you!! &nbsp;I&apos;m 45 and plan to forego fillers and botox as I continue to age. &nbsp;I love my expression lines and don&apos;t want to lose my ability to express but I still want to look my best. &nbsp;I think this may be perfect for my skin goals.

  So happy that you did this because microneedling had been on my radar. I have found a wonderful dermatologist in my area; I’m an African American woman with no skin issues but would love to give this procedure a try so after listing to you explain in detail I now feel more comfortable so thank you. I also use all of your skincare products where I use very little to no makeup and get compliments on how beautiful my skin looks, I will be 59 at the end of this month, so thank you Dr. Ellis and keep the skincare products coming.❤❤❤❤❤

  So glad that you mention about rosaceea not being a problem when doing this treatment, I have been avoiding it precisely because of that.

  I love microneedling. &nbsp;I was inflamed the first few times. After I got thru the adjustment phase, I would just glow!!! ❤
