Microneedling

Word Microneedling missing from start of the sentence has a broad range of applications including skin rejuvenation, tightening, scarring, rhytides, enlarged pores. Usually the practitioner will assess area to see if possible and advise best treatment. Microneedling or collagen induction therapy mimics the effects of fractional laser by generating micro-punctures in the skin. This controlled wound-healing response in the deep layers of the skin stimulates the collagen. It results in a smoother and more youthful appearance. The micropunctures create a controlled injury underneath the surface of the skin, which then sends a wake up call to the collagen to start producing more and start skin rejuvenation . The skin plumps and thickens in response to this. Microneedling aims to improve mild to moderate acne/scarring, fine lines and wrinkles, rough skin texture, decreases pore size, and tightens lax skin.
