Hi friends,

I have been doing 2.5 mm microneedling on my cheeks, chin, and forehead for some old acne scars. Since I liked the results I was seeing, I continued to do this every 6 weeks for the past year. I started to do under my eyes as well to minimize some fine lines.

Recently I learned that needling at this depth might be too aggressive and could cause fat loss. I'm panicking because I did notice that my face looks thinner lately, but I don't know if this is just sleep loss and exhaustion from some current life circumstances, or due to the aggressive microneedling I was doing. Could anyone who has had deep microneedling treatments over an extended period of time share their experience, did you feel like it caused any loss of volume for you? I hope this isn't true :/ TIA
