Micro Needling

What is Microneedling?

Simply put, Microneedling is the insertion of very fine short needles into the skin for the purpose of rejuvenation. These very fine needles create tiny punctures in the skin to help stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture and reduce wrinkles, acne scars and hyperpigmentation. It can also be known as collagen induction therapy. During a 30 minute procedure, needles will go to a depth of about 0.25mm to 1.5mm depending on the patient. It’s important to do this treatment with a trained professional to ensure proper technique, use of sterile equipment, and the ability to adjust the treatment according to individual skin type and concerns.

  • Microneedling can only be done once a month to ensure proper rejuvenation and healing sequences to occur.

What is Nanoneelding?

Nanoneedling uses microscopic, hairlike needles to penetrate the top layer of skin, called the epidermis, by separating cells and allowing active ingredients to be delivered. The needles used in this procedure typically only reach the upper 0.15mm of the skin. Benefits of this treatment include reduced pigmentation, improved skin cell turnover, rejuvenation, and an immediate improvement in the skin’s appearance with no recovery time. This 30-minute treatment can be done on a weekly basis as an exfoliating treatment and is typically used for more sensitive areas and /or skin.

  • Nanoneedling can be done once a week as a supportive treatment to Microneedling and an exfoliating treatment.

Highlighted Benefits

Improved skin texture and tone

Microneedling helps stimulate collagen production in the skin, which can help to improve the texture and tone of the skin.  The procedure can also help to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, resulting in  a more youthful-looking complexation.

Reduced Acne Scars

The procedure can help to break down scar tissue and promote the growth of new collagen, which can help to fill in and smooth out the skin.  This can help to reduce the appearance of acne scars and other types of scarring.

Brightened complexion-

The production of new cells promoted by microneedling can lead to a brighter, more even complexion. This can help to reduce the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation.

Enhanced product absorption

The tiny punctures created by microneedling can help to increase the absorption of skincare products, making them more effective.  This means that you may see better results from your skincare routine after a microneedling session.

Increased Collagen Production

Microneedling helps stimulate collagen production in the skin, which can help to improve skin elasticity, firmness, and hydration.  This can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin texture, resulting in a more youthful-looking complexion.
