Microneedling
Face, neck and body.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling (also known as skin needling or collagen induction therapy) is a type of treatment that uses small needles to cause tiny punctures in the skin. These small contact points encourage the body to create a wound healing response and renew the skin cells. As your skin repairs, the production of collagen and elastin is triggered to give an almost immediate plumping effect. It can also help tackle other skin damage such as scarring, dark marks, sun damage and ageing.
Benefits of Microneedling
Dull skin: Rejuvenate tired and dull skin and combat the initial signs of ageing. It also helps with large pores.
Wrinkles: Fine lines and wrinkles on the face can be visibly reduced, as micro.needling triggers collagen production.
Scarring: Scars from acne, chicken pox and other scarring can be improved, and an uneven texture can be smoothed out with micro needling.
Pigmentation: Can help to fade dark patches such as pigmentation due to sun damage or ageing.
Microneedling is a great treatment for you if you have darker skin because it doesn’t involve peels or lasers, which can cause pigmentation issues.
Treatments can be performed on the body as well as the face.
