MICRONEEDLING

WHAT IS MICRONEEDLING?

Commonly known as Collagen Induction therapy (CIT), micro needling is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that creates tiny micro-injuries I the skin's top layer triggering a natural wound response to reveal more youthful skin.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF MICRONEEDLING?

There are a number of cosmetic effects that clients can anticipate from microneedling. Microneedling can:

• Tighten, lift, and rejuvenate skin

• Reduce the visibility of acne scars, surgical scars, and other scars

• Minimize wrinkles and fine lines

• Reduce the appearance of large pores

• Improve overall texture especially for aged or damaged skin

• Corrects hyperpigmentation

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM YOUR TREATMENT?

Your face will be numbed with a topical numbing cream so that you're comfortable. A handheld needling device is used to make tiny punctures in the skin, creating a micro-injury that encourages the body’s healing ability to produce new, healthy skin. The entire process take about 30-45 min
This procedure is done in a series of three to five treatments spaced four to six weeks apart.

WHAT IS THE RECOVERY FROM MICRONEEDLING?

You may notice mild to moderate swelling and redness following a microneedling procedure. Many patients compare this to a mild sunburn. This is temporary and should subside within a few days. Since microneedling is only minimally-invasive, you may return to your usual activities as soon as you feel comfortable. It is important that you protect your skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays following a microneedling treatment, as it will be more sensitive to sun damage.
