Microneedling for LaureltonSmoother skin — safe for your skin tone.
Looking to soften acne scars, smooth out texture, and bring back a real glow in Laurelton? Microneedling builds your skin’s own collagen — and done right, it is one of the few collagen treatments genuinely suited to brown and dark skin. Performed by our trained clinical team under Dr. Keisha Bryant, MD’s supervision, about eight minutes away on Hollis Avenue.

“Real collagen-building results — and safe for melanin-rich skin.”
— Dr. Keisha Bryant, MD
Microneedling minutes from Laurelton, for every skin tone
Laurelton is one of southeast Queens’ most established Black and Caribbean-American neighborhoods — tree-lined, family-owned, and proud of it. Skin care here has to start from melanin-rich skin rather than treat it as an afterthought, because plenty of lasers and aggressive peels carry a real risk of dark patches and uneven tone on darker skin.
Microneedling takes a different route. Rather than burning or bleaching, it prompts your skin’s own healing and collagen response, which is what makes it one of the safer collagen-building options for brown and dark skin in trained medical hands. At Dr. Bryant Medical Practice and MedSpa, 205-15 Hollis Avenue — about eight minutes north-west along Merrick Boulevard — your skin is assessed before anything is done, under a board-certified physician’s supervision.
It goes after what neighbors here actually ask about: acne scars, rough texture, large pores, fine lines and dullness. The clinical detail is on our microneedling service page.

How microneedling actually works
Microneedling uses very fine sterile needles to create thousands of tiny micro-channels in the skin. They are too small to cause real injury, but they trigger your body’s natural collagen and elastin response — the proteins that keep skin firm and smooth. As new collagen builds over the following weeks, texture softens, scars grow shallower, and skin looks fresher.
Because it works with your skin’s healing rather than burning or bleaching it, microneedling is one of the safer collagen treatments for brown and dark skin when performed at the right depth by trained hands. Most people need a short series a few weeks apart for the best result.
Each session runs about 30–60 minutes including numbing cream, with a day or two of mild pinkness afterwards. Read the full rundown on our microneedling page or browse all MedSpa services.
