This is a quick but powerful procedure, which uses medical grade micro needles to poke the superficial skin all over the face, neck or any area that needs treatment. The purpose is to create micro injuries, that signal the body to build more collagen and elastin to repair the injury. This is often referred to as collagen induction therapy, and is a wonderful way to treat a variety of skin concerns.
Microneedling has a lot or research behind it and is considered very effective in:
- Improving appearance of age spots and hyperpigmentation
- Diminishing pore size
- Exfoliating the skin
- Reducing fine lines, wrinkles
- Reducing stretch marks
- Reducing acne scars
- Improving overall tone, texture and brightness
