Microneedling Near Me: Prices and How to Vet a Provider

Estimating a price near you

We publish a city page only when enough clinics in that city have been checked, and only with at least eight clinics, three ZIP codes and two kinds of provider. Until a city has its own page, use the national medians by provider type as a starting point and ask for written quotes.

Dermatology and plastic-surgery offices are not shown as a type: only 2 were in the sample.

A national figure is a starting point, not a quote for your city. See how we collect prices for the limits.

How to find and vet a provider near you

1. Find out who may perform it in your state. The rules differ by state and can involve physicians, nurses or licensed estheticians. We do not summarize state law here. Ask your state medical board, board of nursing or cosmetology board.
2. Verify the license. Ask for the name and license number of the person who will hold the device, then check it with the state board. For nurses, Nursys offers a free license lookup with data provided by boards of nursing.
3. Ask for the device name and model. Look it up in the FDA 510(k) database, where each cleared device lists its use. The FDA says it has authorized specific microneedling devices for uses such as acne scars on the face and wrinkles on the face and neck in adults 22 and older.¹
4. Ask about hygiene. The FDA suggests asking how the device is cleaned between patients and whether a new needle cartridge is used for each patient and each session.¹
5. Get the quote in writing. Read it with the quote checklist.
6. Know the warning signs. No written quote, no named device, no license number, a refusal to say who performs the treatment, or pressure to pay today.

The FDA recommends choosing a health care provider who is specially trained in microneedling.¹

A note on add-ons and RF

Ask whether the quote is for plain microneedling or includes RF, PRP or other steps. For RF, read our RF page, which covers the FDA's October 2025 safety communication.
