Microneedling: Face

Ready to look younger and firm up your skin? Microneedling is a skin treatment procedure that involves an electric skin-needling device. The device contains very fine sterile 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. Benefits of Microneedling: -Tightens the skin, helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles through stimulation of collagen production -Stimulates blood circulation and cellular regeneration -Improves topical cream effectiveness and penetration -Works on all skin types; and it can treat the face and body, including skin around the eyes, mouth, and neck.
