Microneedling

Service Description

Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin, stimulating the body's natural healing process to produce more collagen and elastin. This minimally invasive treatment is used to improve various skin concerns like acne scars, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and stretch marks. It typically involves a series of treatments and results in smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin.   What it is     •    A cosmetic procedure also known as collagen induction therapy or skin needling.      •    A handheld device with tiny, sterile needles is used to puncture the skin repeatedly.      •    The controlled micro-injuries trigger the skin's wound-healing response.  Benefits     •    Boosts collagen and elastin production, which helps firm and smooth the skin.     •    Reduces the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, and wrinkles.     •    Helps with hyperpigmentation and stretch marks.     •    Can improve enlarged pores and dullness.     •    May help with certain types of hair loss The process     1    A topical numbing cream is applied to the skin.      2    The microneedling device is used to make tiny punctures across the treatment area, often in a specific pattern.      3    After the procedure, the skin may appear red and swollen, but this is typically temporary.      4    Post-treatment care involves using specific products to aid healing and avoiding sun exposure.  Things to consider     •    Treatment plan: Most people need a series of treatments (three to six sessions) spaced about a month apart to see meaningful results.    •    Downtime: There is minimal downtime, and most people can return to normal activities within a day or two.   •    Side effects: Temporary side effects can include redness, swelling, and skin flaking.   •    Sun sensitivity: Skin will be more sensitive to the sun after treatment, so sunscreen is crucial.  Those with active inflammatory acne or cold sores should avoid the treatment until lesions have cleared. Exosomes are tiny extracellular vesicles (microscopic bubbles) naturally released by cells. They act as messengers, carrying growth factors, peptides, proteins, lipids, and genetic material (like mRNA and microRNA) that help regulate and repair other cells. In aesthetics and skin treatments, exosomes are used to boost skin regeneration and healing. They help stimulate collagen and elastin production, reduce inflammation, and promote cell turnover.
