Microneedling
Microneedling or collagen induction therapy (CIT) is a minimally invasive procedure that uses small needles to cause tiny punctures in the skin. These small contact points encourage a wound healing response, generating new collagen to help to renew the skin cells.
The procedure is used to treat acne, scarring, fine lines and wrinkles, deep pores, stretch marks and pigmentation problems. It boosts collagen production and results in a smoother, healthier, younger looking complexion.
Why choose Microneedling​
-
Rejuvenates tired and dull skin and combats the initial signs of ageing
-
Wrinkles: Fine lines and wrinkles on the face can be visibly reduced, as microneedling triggers collagen production
-
Scarring: Scars from acne and chicken pox can be improved and an uneven texture can be smoothed out with microneedling
-
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
What to expect
Hyaluronic acid is applied to the skin’s surface (after cleansing) and a Derma Pen is used to start needling the skin, once the treatment is complete you have an appropriate mask depending on your skin’s requirements and wait 10 – 15 mins. Finally SPF30 is applied to the skin to provide added protection.
​
3 to 4 treatments four weeks apart will be required to achieve optimum results.
​
A number of treatments may be required to treat a specific skin condition and this can be discussed at your consultation with Nicole.
