Objective: This study investigated the effects of dermal microneedling associated with the topical application of SERUM AFAC on facial rejuvenation, focusing on skin homogenization, reduction of expression lines, treatment time, participant satisfaction, and minimization of side effects. Aesthetic treatments have a significant impact on self-esteem, physical and psychological well-being, and social acceptance, making it essential to explore safe and effective techniques. Method: In this uncontrolled clinical study, an initial sample of 23 participants was conducted between July 2023 and February 2024. The participants were between 40 and 65 years old, with 50% being white and 50% non-white, with a notable presence of dentists. After excluding participants for factors such as recent use of Botox, hyaluronic acid, unprotected sun exposure, among others, eight women remained in the study. They underwent two to three microneedling sessions, followed by the application of the SERUM. Images were taken before and after the sessions to evaluate the results. A mobile application (BEAUTY SCORE 2020) was used for comparative analysis of the faces before and after the treatment. Result: Microneedling, using Dermapen and SERUM, stimulated collagen production, resulting in firmer, smoother, and rejuvenated skin. Lightening of dark circles, reduction of aging signs around the eyes, attenuation of perioral wrinkles and nasolabial fold, as well as greater definition of mouth contours were observed. These results are consistent with existing literature, which recommends between two and 12 sessions for good results. The participants did not present any damage or excessive redness on the skin during the treatment. Conclusion: Short-term treatment with microneedling and AFAC SERUM showed remarkable and visible results, with few sessions needed to achieve significant improvements, corroborating existing literature. The absence of side effects and the observed efficacy reinforce the potential of this technique as a viable option for facial rejuvenation. The technique proved to be a minimally invasive and effective aesthetic procedure, confirming the validity of the sessions performed to obtain visible results. However, the evaluation of facial improvements was challenging due to the lack of accessible and reliable tools for this purpose.
