What is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment to rejuvenate skin. Suitable for treating sagging, thinning skin, fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring, open pores, pigmentation and stretch marks.
Skin needling is a procedure using a device covered with tiny, shallow needles, essentially creates tiny holes in the skin surface. The trauma stimulates the skin’s own collagen and elastin production.

Salon treatment vs microneedling at home

Various DIY microneedling devices, often referred to as dermarollers, are available in the market. Here is why you should consider a professional salon treatment instead. This is your skin we are talking about!

Unlike home devices professional technology offers adjustable needling depths which means the treatment can be tailored to your skin thickness and also treat hard to reach areas in a single treatment. It can also target deeper scars individually.

Will the treatment be painful?

A topical anaesthetic (numbing) cream is applied to the treatment area for 30-45 minutes prior to treatment.

Note:

– Not suitable for pregnant or breastfeeding woman.

– Only one area (ie face and neck) can be treated in a single session to avoid over exposure to anaesthetic.

What areas can be treated?

The high-tech used in my salon has adjustable needle depths and therefore the face can be treated in one session without the need for additional equipment, making it more economical.

Open pores, sagging skin, fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars and pigmentation can all be treated as well as stretch marks and atrophic scarring.

When will I see results?

Because new collagen doesn’t happen overnight, you must be patient. Friends will start commenting in about a month, however the real results are seen after 4 to 6 months are accumulative, so it just gets better. Noticeable changes in the skin texture will be experienced after the 4th treatment and results will continue to increase with further treatments and there after.

Skin needling is a procedure using a device covered with tiny, shallow needles, essentially creates tiny holes in the skin surface. The trauma stimulates the skin’s own collagen and elastin production.

How does it work?

Utilising oscillating vertical needling technology tiny multiple needles vertically pierce the skin with a vibrating movement.

This stimulates natural collagen re-production, allowing fine channels to be created that can carry up to 80% more topical nutrients deep into the skin’s fibroblasts. The increased absorption of active ingredients creates stimulation repair and faster resurfacing results.
