Healing Your Skin & Restoring Youthfulness
Microneedling
Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure using thin needles to create micro punctures in the skin. The procedure stimulates the skin’s natural healing processes and can help reduce the appearance of skin concerns such as fine lines, acne scars, stretch marks, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation. Most people get microneedling for cosmetic purposes, but it can also help with some medical conditions.
The benefits of microneedling are numerous and include:
- Increases collagen production: Collagen is a protein that gives the skin its structure and elasticity. As we age, our body’s natural production of collagen decreases, leading to wrinkles and fine lines. Microneedling stimulates the production of new collagen, helping to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, producing smoother and more youthful-looking skin.
- Improved skin texture and tone: Microneedling can help to improve the texture and tone of the skin by reducing the appearance of acne scarring and hyperpigmentation.
- Minimal downtime: Unlike more invasive cosmetic procedures, microneedling has very little downtime, allowing you to get back to your normal activities quickly.
- Safe for all skin types: Microneedling is a safe and effective treatment for all skin types, including those with sensitive skin.
- Non-invasive: Unlike surgical procedures, microneedling is a non-invasive treatment, making it a popular choice for those looking to improve the appearance of their skin without undergoing surgery.
- Microneedling may work better for people with darker skin tones as it doesn’t involve heat the way laser treatments do, which can affect your skin’s color/pigmentation.
- Microneedling is considerably less expensive than laser treatments, which can cost as much as 4 times more than microneedling.
