Microneedling

Service Description

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a cosmetic procedure that involves using a device equipped with fine needles to create tiny, controlled punctures in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the body's natural healing processes, leading to increased collagen and elastin production, which can improve the skin's texture, firmness, and overall appearance. Here’s a basic rundown of how it works: 1. **Preparation**: The skin is cleansed, and a numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort during the procedure. 2. **Treatment**: A microneedling device, which can be a pen-like instrument or a motorized roller, is used to make thousands of tiny punctures in the skin's surface. 3. **Post-Treatment**: After the procedure, the skin might be red and slightly swollen, similar to a mild sunburn. This typically subsides within a few days. 4. **Recovery and Results**: As the skin heals, collagen and elastin production ramps up, leading to smoother, more youthful-looking skin. Results often become noticeable after a few weeks, with continued improvement over time. Microneedling can help address a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and overall skin texture. It’s generally suitable for most skin types, but it’s important to consult with a qualified skincare professional to ensure it’s the right treatment for you and to discuss any potential risks or side effects.
