Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the use of a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries to the skin. This process stimulates the body's natural wound healing response, leading to the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins essential for maintaining the skin's structure and elasticity.
What skin conditions will Microneedling improve on your skin?
Microneedling can be used to address various skincare concerns, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven skin texture and tone
- Stretch marks
The number of sessions needed depends on individual skin conditions and treatment goals. Microneedling is generally considered safe when performed by trained professionals, and the level of invasiveness is lower compared to more aggressive treatments.
