How We Do It
Our Method
The Procedure
The treatment begins with a skincare professional cleansing your skin thoroughly. A numbing cream may then be applied to minimize discomfort during the procedure. Once the skin is numbed, the professional will move the microneedling device across your skin, creating tiny punctures. After the microneedling, a soothing serum or cream is usually applied. The entire process typically lasts between 20 minutes to an hour, depending on the area being treated.

Microneedling:
The Key to Rejuvenated Skin
Introduction
In the dynamic landscape of skincare, one treatment has made a considerable splash: Microneedling. By harnessing your body’s own healing mechanisms, Microneedling can refresh your complexion and rejuvenate your skin. Let’s dive into this innovative skincare solution.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a dermatological procedure that involves puncturing the skin with tiny, sterile needles to trigger your body’s wound healing process and stimulate collagen production. The result? Plumper, smoother, and more youthful skin.
Understanding the Process of Microneedling
The Microneedling procedure can be broken down into a few simple steps:
- Preparation: A topical anesthetic cream is applied to your skin to reduce any potential discomfort.
- Microneedling: A device with fine needles creates tiny punctures in the top layer of the skin, which triggers the body to create new collagen and elastin.
- Post-Procedural Care: After the procedure, a soothing serum or calming treatment is applied to help reduce any redness or inflammation.
Benefits of Microneedling
Considering Microneedling? Here are some of the benefits of this revolutionary skincare treatment:
- Promotes Collagen Production: By stimulating the body’s natural healing process, Microneedling encourages collagen and elastin production, reducing fine lines, wrinkles, and improving skin’s texture.
- Reduces Scarring and Hyperpigmentation: Microneedling can significantly improve the appearance of acne scars and hyperpigmentation by promoting skin renewal.
- Enhances Product Absorption: Microneedling can enhance the absorption of topical products, significantly improving their efficacy.
Microneedling Aftercare
To make the most of your Microneedling treatment and ensure proper healing, consider these aftercare tips:
- Avoid the sun: Your skin will be sensitive post-procedure, so avoid direct sunlight and wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen.
- Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water and use a good quality moisturizer.
- Skip makeup: Give your skin a break and avoid makeup for at least 24 hours after the procedure.
Conclusion
