Skin Needling / Microneedling

Skin needling is a minimally invasive procedure that harnesses your body's inherent healing mechanisms. It involves using a device equipped with fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-channels on the skin's surface. These tiny punctures are precisely engineered to stimulate a natural response within the skin, initiating a cascade of rejuvenation.

When these micro-channels are created, your skin interprets this as a signal to begin a natural repair process. This process triggers the production of vital proteins:

• Collagen: This is the primary structural protein in your skin, responsible for its firmness, strength, and plumpness. As we age, collagen production naturally declines. Skin needling aims to stimulate new collagen synthesis, helping to improve skin's underlying support.
• Elastin: This protein gives your skin its elasticity, allowing it to stretch and return to its original shape. Increased elastin production can contribute to a more resilient and youthful skin appearance.

By encouraging this natural regeneration, skin needling helps to refine skin texture, promote a more even tone, and contribute to an overall healthier, more radiant complexion.

Skin needling is a versatile treatment that can be considered for a range of common skin concerns. While individual results vary, it is often sought after by individuals looking to:

• Improve Skin Texture: Address rough skin texture, promoting a smoother feel.
• Enhance Skin Tone: Help to balance uneven skin tone and promote a more uniform complexion.
• Support Skin Firmness: Contribute to the skin's natural firmness and resilience.
• Refine the Appearance of Pores: Aid in the appearance of enlarged pores.
• Address Specific Skin Imperfections: When clinically appropriate, it may be part of a plan to address certain skin imperfections.
