Microneedling and Direct Primary Care (DPC): Personalized Skin Renewal, Simplified
You're not alone if you've thought about microneedling for dull skin, acne scars, or wrinkles but hesitated because of generic treatments, hidden costs, or uncertain aftercare. Although the U.S. performs over 1.4 million microneedling treatments annually, many patients encounter one-size-fits-all solutions that overlook their particular skin needs. By combining collagen-boosting microneedling with medical knowledge—ensuring safety, customizing, and long-lasting results—Direct Primary Care (DPC) transforms this journey.
