Nano Needling vs. Microneedling: What’s the Difference—and Which One Is Right for You?
At Le Monet, we offer both nano needling and microneedling—two popular treatments that sound similar but do very different things for your skin. Here’s a simple breakdown to help you decide which might be best for you.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This triggers your body’s natural healing process and boosts collagen and elastin production. It’s great for:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Skin laxity
- Acne scars
- Large pores
- Uneven texture
Downtime: Expect redness for 24–48 hours, similar to a mild sunburn. Skin may feel tight or dry for a few days.
Cost:
$325 acne, pigmentation or hydrating serums
$375 salmon DNA serum
$650 with PRP ( your own growth factors)
These prices are per session (15% off for monthly members)
What is Nano Needling?
Nano needling uses much smaller stainless steel tips that only treat the top layer of your skin (no injury, no pain). It’s gentle, with no downtime, and helps your skincare products absorb better. This treatment is paired with brightening or hydrating serumsNano needling is best for:
- Dull, tired skin
- Dehydration
- Light texture issues
- Pre-event glow
Downtime: None. Your skin might look slightly pink right after, but you can go right back to your day.
Cost:$175 per session (15% off for Monthly members)
So Which is Right for You?
If you’re looking to target deeper concerns like acne scarring, fine lines, or skin firmness—microneedling is your go-to.
If your skin needs a refresh, glow boost, or a little hydration without any downtime, nano needling is a great place to start.
