What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a minimaly invasive treatment that can be used all over the face, scalp and body to improve the appearance of scars, boosts collagen and elastin or encourage hair growth. Microneedling is also a standard treatment for fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation and stretch marks.
Microneedling uses multiple fine, sterile needles to create hundreds of microscopic needle impressions in the skin and this can be done all over face, neck deloletage and body. Medical microneedling causes trauma to the deeper levels of the skin causing injury which trigger your body’s natural healing response to create more collagen and elastin , the building blocks of youthful and healthy skin. Each session is completed with LED light therapy to calm and optimise the results of the procedure.
The result? Brighter, healthier, plumper, youthful and glowing skin. Your skin will continue to look brighter and healthier for up to six month after your course of microneedling sessions. Additionally, skin care products and specialised skin boosters are able to penetrate more deeply into skin.
Supercharge your skin with a serum
Microneedling is also used to help topical skin treatments to penetrate the skin more effectively such as Exosome used for face rejuvenation and hair restoration, Hyaluronic Acid, Fillmed NCTF skin boosters containing vitamins and minerals, Cytocare and many more.
