INTRODUCTION: The microneedling was developed in the 90s in Germany, by the brand Dermaroller, however, only in 2006 the technique spread worldwide. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this paper is to describe the technique, detailing its concept, mechanism of action, indications and contraindications, as well as the advantages and disadvantages. METHODOLOGY: This is a bibliographic review of authors who have already discussed the proposed topic and related topics. For this, databases such as Scielo, Médice, Academic Google, Pubmed, PEDro and Lillacs were used. RESULTS: Therefore, the study showed that microneedling is a very promising technique in both the medical-aesthetic and pharmaceutical and biomedical areas, as it can be used to induce collagen production, delivery of chemical, macro and micronutrient actives and even vaccines. CONCLUSION: Therefore, it is concluded that, despite some side effects depending on the patient, this technique still allows much study and field research from its mechanism of action to its association with dermocosmetics and other techniques.
