Microneedling to treat various wrinkles, large pores & certain scars.
Microneedling is a type of treatment that uses small needles to cause tiny punctures in the skin. These small contact points encourage the body to create a wound healing response and renew the skin cells. As your skin repairs, the production of collagen and elastin is triggered to give an almost immediate plumping effect. It can also help tackle other skin damage such as scarring, dark marks, sun damage and ageing.Treatments can be performed on the body as well as the face, although prices are based on an area the size of the face.
Generation of new collagen for smoother, firmer, more toned skin especially on the face
The purpose of treatment is to generate new collagen and skin tissue for smoother, firmer, more toned skin. Microneedling is mostly used on the face and may treat various scars, wrinkles, and large pores. The best results from microneedling are seen after a course of treatment.
As soon as the deepest layers of your skin are penetrated by the needles, “micro-wounds” are created. This triggers your body’s wound healing processes to heal your micro wounds immediately. However, the most dramatic results will not be visible until four to six weeks after treatment.
Microneedling can help with a variety of conditions:
- Dull skin – rejuvenate tired and dull skin and combat the initial signs of ageing.
- Wrinkles – fine lines and wrinkles on the face can be visibly reduced, as microneedling triggers collagen production.
- Scarring – scars from acne and chicken pox can be improved and an uneven texture can be smoothed out with microneedling.
- Pigmentation – can help to fade dark patches such as pigmentation due to sun damage or ageing.
