Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy, is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that can improve the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. It is a good alternative for skin rejuvenation. The treatment involves the use of fine needles, which create controlled micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. This triggers the body’s natural healing process, leading to the production of collagen and elastin. As a result, the skin becomes firmer and more youthful.
One of the benefits of microneedling is that it can be used on all skin types and can be tailored to suit individual needs and concerns. It is a safe and effective treatment that can be performed on the face, neck, and body.
During the treatment, a medical-grade microneedling pen or dermal roller is used to create micro-injuries on the skin. The needles used in the treatment vary in size and depth, depending on the desired outcome and the area being treated.
After the treatment, the skin may appear red and slightly swollen, but these symptoms usually subside within a few hours. It is important to avoid sun exposure and to use sunscreen to protect the treated area from the sun’s harmful rays.
Microneedling can be used alone or in combination with other treatments such as chemical peels or laser resurfacing. It can also enhance the absorption of skincare products, making it an excellent addition to any skincare regimen.
