Microneedling
In Pine Cosmetic Clinic
Microneedling is one of the most popular inventions to effectively treat skin lesions, in particular acne scarring. It is also known as Collagen Induction Therapy as it motivates collagen production to repair skin imperfections.
The skin repair process is initiated through a stimulated natural wound healing, encouraging collagen, fibroblast, elastin production, and cell turnover fortification. To make this happen, we use micro-needles to gently create controlled punctures in the form of micro-injuries on the skin surface.
This procedure is a non-surgical and minimally invasive technique that is safe for women and men of all skin types.
Microneedling is a skin rejuvenation treatment efficiently treating a wide range of skin concerns and imperfections such as:
- Acne Scars, Surgical Scars, Chickenpox Scars
- Fine and Deep Wrinkles
- Sun Damage, Pigmentation, Melasma
- Enlarged Pores
- Cellulite and Stretch Marks
- Under Eye Dark Circles and Puffy Bags
- Skin Sagging
- Hair Loss
- It is also a highly functional technology to improve the absorption of transdermal skincare products into the skin.
All in all, it is a worthwhile approach that results in plumper, fresher, tighter, and more youthful skin.
How many sessions do you need?
To obtain a desired and lasting result, four to six sessions with monthly intervals are recommended. The number of sessions depends on the skin issues and can be determined in your free consultation session.
You can commonly realize the improvements in your skin right after the session is complete. However, as it typically takes about three weeks for new collagen and elastin to be produced and remodeled, you can see the visible enhancements over the next following weeks after treatments.
Collagen production and rebuilding is also a continuous process. This helps boost and sustain the results of the treatments for about six months to one year.
This procedure has no to little downtime with some redness and small amount of swelling, which all will disappear within a few days.
