MICRONEEDLING
Microneedling is a versatile, minimally invasive treatment that harnesses the body's natural healing abilities to stimulate collagen and elastin production. This process helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and other skin imperfections, resulting in smoother, more youthful skin.
ABOUT MICRONEEDLING
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that creates micro-wounds in the skin to stimulate collagen production. This multipurpose treatment leverages the body’s natural healing process to address various skin conditions, such as fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven texture. To achieve optimal results, a series of multiple treatments is typically recommended.
WHAT IT IS
Microneedling utilizes a handheld device equipped with extremely sharp, sterile needles to puncture the skin. These micro-wounds trigger the skin’s healing process, leading to increased production of collagen and elastin, two crucial proteins for skin health and vitality. The treatment effectively rejuvenates the skin, improving its overall texture and appearance.
HOW IT WORKS
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure with minimal downtime. Here’s what you can expect:
Preparation: Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed, and a numbing cream will be applied to ensure comfort during the treatment.
Treatment: During the procedure, you may feel some warmth and a scratching/pulling sensation as the device moves over your skin. The numbing cream helps keep pain to a minimum.
Post-Treatment: Immediately after treatment, your skin will likely be red and swollen, which can last up to a few days. You can return to your normal routine immediately, but it’s important to stay out of the sun until your skin heals.
