Microneedling

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is used to address a variety of skin concerns by promoting collagen and elastin production. This minimally invasive procedure involves creating tiny punctures in the skin using fine needles, which stimulates the body's natural healing response.
It is effectively used to improve skin texture and firmness, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and diminish acne scars, stretch marks, and hyperpigmentation. Microneedling also enhances the absorption and efficacy of topical skincare products, leading to overall healthier and more rejuvenated skin.

Treatment Duration:

20-30 minutes 

Downtime:

12-24 hours

Duration of Action:

at least 4-6 months

Health Restrictions

Microneedling, while generally safe, come with certain health restrictions and considerations. The following conditions might have complications with this treatment:

  • Active skin infections (cold sores, acne, etc.)

  • Severe keloid or hypertrophic scarring (may worsen scarring)

  • Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding

  • Skin conditions (eczema, rosacea, etc.)

Additionally, it is advised to avoid microneedling if you have used isotretinoin (Accutane) within the past six months, as this medication can increase skin sensitivity and the risk of complications. 

It's crucial to disclose your complete medical history during the consultation to ensure the procedure's safety and effectiveness for you.

The Procedure

During a microneedling procedure, the skin is first cleansed and a topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort. A device with fine needles is then gently moved across the skin, creating tiny punctures. The treatment typically lasts about 30 minutes, and afterward, a soothing serum or moisturizer is applied to aid in the healing process.

Addressing Aesthetic Goals

Microneedling is used to enhance skin texture and firmness, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and diminish acne scars and hyperpigmentation. This treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production, which helps achieve a more youthful and rejuvenated complexion. Microneedling also aims to improve overall skin tone and minimize the visibility of pores, resulting in smoother, more radiant skin.
