WHAT IS MICRONEEDLING?
Microneedling is an effective, non-surgical, non-laser treatment that stimulates skin collagen production revealing fresh, new skin. Its a medical grade Collagen Induction Therapy treating scarring, fine lines, wrinkles, stretch marks, acne scars, scars, thinning hair and hyperpigmentation.
How Microneedling Works:
Microneedling stimulates the skin’s natural healing response without causing unnecessary and excessive damage such as laser treatments and chemical peels. Microneedling will depend on your skin natural ability to repair and heal itself.
1. The treatment uses tiny needles that create invisible, microscopic wounds in the epidermis and on the top layer of the dermis at different depths.
2. It will then send signals that your body has been injured, triggering the body’s natural self-repair process.
3.These tiny perforations heal within several hours and prompt new elastin and collagen synthesis to generate healthy new tissue.
