MICRONEEDELING
Microneedling treatment is used to treat different skin conditions including acne scars, stretch marks, enlarged pores, small wrinkles, and loose skin. In addition, professionals can use microneedling to deposit medication, such as hyaluronic acid or vitamin C, deeper into the skin.
How does microneedling work?
Microneedling induces new production of collagen and other healing factors by causing trauma to the skin. Collagen is an essential protein that helps keep the skin looking youthful, with a firm and smooth texture. Aging causes the decline of collagen in the skin, contributing to wrinkles and other signs of aging. Skin can also lose collagen due to injuries, such as acne scarring and stretch marks.
Contraindications for treatment
Some people are not candidates for microneedling treatment, including those with:
- an active skin infection
- active acne
- keloid scarring
Downtime and Recovery
