Schedule a complimentary 15 minute consultation with one of our Skincare Technicians and we would be happy to help determine the best treatment plan and products for your skin concerns. What is Microneedling? Microneedling is a skin treatment procedure that involves an electric skin-needling device. The device contains 9-36 very fine needles, used during microneedling procedures to stimulate collagen production, tighten the skin, break down scar tissue and promote skin cell regeneration. New skin cell production leads to the creation of new layers of elastin and collagen fibres and improved blood flow in the skin. The device slides along the skin and penetrates upper layers of the skin to a depth of up to 2.0 mm to create tiny needle wounds. This signals the body to respond by producing collagen and elastin fibers. As a result, the skin becomes fuller, thus reducing the appearance of scars, lines, and wrinkles. This procedure begins with cleansing and numbing the skin, then the microneedling device is used on the face, neck, decollete or areas of skin concern to create tiny wounds in the skin. The speed and adjustability of the needles allows for more effective piercing and absorption of skin products. Hyaluronic Acid is used after the procedure to hydrate, heal and protect the skin. What are the benefits of Microneedling? Microneedling induces collagen production, which can improve skin laxity by tightening the skin, improve the appearance of scars, and increase transdermal delivery of active ingredients in your skincare regimen to help increase the results of your treatment plan. With microneedling, we can treat the face, neck, and decollete as well as areas on the body such as scars and stretch marks. Although results can be seen in one appointment, multiple sessions are required to create lasting change.
