What Does Microneedling Actually Do?
Microneedling is an in-office treatment that creates tiny pokes in the skin, in order to stimulate the skin’s repair & rebuild process. The practitioner glides a hand-held device over the skin. The resulting micro-injuries encourage the skin to release growth factors and cell nutrients, which in turn strengthen the skin and allow for new collagen formation.
What Are the Benefits of Microneedling?
The result is typically an improvement in scar tissue as well as smoother, younger-looking skin. Though it sounds invasive, microneedling simply stimulates your skin’s own ability to repair and rebuild, allowing your problem areas to fix themselves. Maximum results may be seen in as little as 3 to 5 treatments, on areas such as one’s face, neck, under-eye, scars, and various parts on the body.
What Skin Issues Can Microneedling Repair?
Microneedling may be right for you if you suffer from any of the following, including but not limited to:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars
- Surgical scars
- Enlarged pores
- Hyperpigmentation
- Hair loss (when combined with platelet rich plasma—PRP)
- Skin aging
This growingly popular procedure uses a device covered with tiny needles to poke holes into the problem areas, resulting in smoother, firmer, and younger-looking skin. By creating a microscopic, wounded area, the skin is promoted to create collagen thanks to the sterile micro-pen needle head.
