Micro needling / Collagen Induction Therapy
What is Microneedling and how can it help you?
It is a treatment that helps the fibro-blasts in your skin produce more collagen. Collagen is what keeps your skin stretchy and tight and healthy. You can use other products to help assist in building collagen but the problem is that it only absorbs 10 percent of the actual cream or product by the skin.
We start to create micro-punctures on your skin with a derma roller or a microneedling pen, this will help increase the percentage of absorbption to about 80% for the products we use to improve the skin on a deeper level. Also, the micro-punctures start to stimulate your skin to start healing itself, which will help improve your skin and produce new collagen.
Keep in mind there isn't any risk of post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation because the actual Dermis and Melanocytes will not be affected during the treatment. This biggest factor and differentiated benefit of microneedling, versus other invasive procedures used to reduce deep lines and depressed scars. Some of these more invasive treatments might include deep chemical peels, dermabrasion and laser resurfacing, eroding and thinning out the skin which makes it more likely to produce wrinkles over time.
Instead, with mirco-needling your skin becomes more firm, with less wrinkles and fine lines, your pours become smaller and the overall condtion becomes a lot healthier and radiant, giving you a nice youthful look.
