Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries, stimulating the body’s natural production of collagen and elastin to repair skin. It effectively reduces wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, and sun damage while improving skin tone, texture, and firmness.
Key Benefits of Microneedling:
- Collagen Induction: Stimulates elastin and collagen, leading to firmer, thicker, and more youthful-looking skin.
- Scarring & Wrinkle Reduction: Significantly reduces the appearance of acne scars, surgical scars, and fine lines.
- Improved Skin Texture/Tone: Reduces pore size, evens out skin tone, and corrects pigmentation issues like sun damage and melasma.
- Enhanced Product Absorption: Creates micro-channels that allow skincare products to penetrate deeper and work more effectively.
- Safe for All Skin Types: Unlike heat-based lasers, it is safe for darker skin tones and poses lower risk of pigmentation changes.
What to Expect:
Treatment Area: Most commonly used on the face, but also effective on the neck, chest, and body for stretch marks.
Sessions: A series of 3 to 6 sessions, spaced 3–8 weeks apart, is often required for optimal results.
Downtime: Minimal, with potential for slight redness or tightness lasting a few days.
Results: Gradual, with visible improvements appearing over 3 to 6 months.
