Let’s talk about the benefits of microneedling. The term “needle” may sound daunting, but this treatment is a more effective way to give a facial to individuals with specific skin issues.
Microneedling is an absolutely amazing cosmetic treatment that can do wonders for your skin. If you’re wondering how celebrities keep their skin looking so healthy and youthful, microneedling is definitely part of the answer. By rapidly piercing the skin with tiny “micro” needles, this treatment stimulates the body’s natural healing process, leading to increased collagen production and cell turnover. So if you want to achieve that flawless look that you’ve always dreamed of, you can confidently rely on microneedling to deliver amazing results.
What is Microneedling?
Our Micro-Needling treatment is performed using a cutting-edge Microneedling device equipped with a disposable tip that has either 12 or 36 Microneedles depending on the area being treated. Each tip contains sterile needles that penetrate the skin at specific therapeutic depths. These tiny needle pricks stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, while also creating receptor sites that easily absorb a variety of available serums. Micro-needling is also known as “Collagen Induction”, “Meso Therapy” or “Skin Needling”.
What Can I expect from Microneedling?
Microneedling is a skin transformation treatment that delivers amazing results. However, it’s important to note that the results are not immediate and are cumulative. It usually takes around 4-6 weeks for the skin to show improvement. This treatment is often carried out in multiple sessions, but most people report significant improvements in the first treatment. It’s worth noting that skin thickness varies from person to person, and so do the results.
After the procedure, your skin may appear slightly pinkish, and at worst, you may notice small scabs that will gradually disappear within a few days. The sensation after the numbing cream subsides can feel like a mild sunburn.
Does Microneedling hurt?
During the Microneedle procedure, some people may experience mild discomfort. To ensure your comfort, we provide numbing and ice packs are available if needed.
Who is a Candidate for Microneedling?
Those with the following skin concerns should consider Microneedling:
- wrinkles
- scar revision (surgical or non-surgical)
- acne scarring
- alopecia (hair growth stimulations)
- skin pigmentation issues
- stretch marks
- loose skin, such as after weight loss or liposuction.
Which areas on the body can be treated?
Microneedling is a versatile technique that can be applied to any part of the body, with the exception of the eyes, genitals, lymph nodes, and throat. It is important to note that although your practitioner is certified in Microneedling, we follow strict safety guidelines and take every precaution to ensure that these sensitive areas are not treated. Our commitment to safety and professionalism means that you can trust us to deliver the best possible service, with the highest standards of care.
