Introduction to Microneedling

Microneedling is an innovative aesthetic procedure that leverages the skin’s natural healing abilities to rejuvenate and restore its appearance. By creating microscopic punctures in the skin, this treatment stimulates collagen production, leading to improved skin texture and firmness.

What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, involves the use of a specialized device equipped with fine needles. This device is rolled over the skin to create controlled micro-injuries which prompt the body to produce new collagen and elastin. The result is a thicker, more supple, and younger-looking skin surface.

How Does Microneedling Work?

The principle behind microneedling is simple: the micro-injuries caused by the needles trigger the body’s wound-healing processes, leading to cellular turnover and increased collagen and elastin production. This not only helps in reducing the appearance of scars and fine lines but also enhances skin tightness and overall texture.
