Microneedling Treatment

 Also known as collagen induction therapy, microneedling is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that boasts numerous skin benefits.  Most of us have had too much sun exposure, or may have suffered from acne breakouts in the past, and have been left with the visible signs of aging or scarring that can be difficult to diminish with over the counter skincare products. To really reduce the appearance of sun damage, acne scars, age spots, hyperpigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, and large pores, intervention with non-invasive cosmetic treatment is typically necessary. Luckily, thanks to innovations in the field of cosmetic dermatology, facial rejuvenation treatment can be scheduled with ease and without significant downtime or invasive surgery.  

Microneedling treatment is able to successfully do the following:

• Diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Minimize the look of skin discoloration, hyperpigmentation, melasma, dark spots, and sun spots, as well as providing an overall brightening effect and boosting skin radiance
• Improve overall skin tone and texture
• Greatly reduce the appearance of acne scars and post inflammatory hyperpigmentation associated with resolved acne breakouts
• Tighten skin and improve skin elasticity to achieve a more youthful overall appearance
• Improve the appearance of stretch marks on the body
• Reduce the look of large pores to create a smoother appearance

Why should you add dermaplaning to your microneedle treatment?

There are many good reasons to combine these two types of facial treatment together. Dermaplaning before microneedling can bring a range of benefits and advantages including:

• Deeper cell rejuvenation, exfoliation and regeneration – because the villus hair and dead skin has already been removed during the dermaplaning procedure, the microneedles can reach slightly deeper into the skin, to trigger exfoliation process further into the skin.
• More effective, visible results, especially for large pores, uneven skin tones and scarring.  Dermaplaning doesn’t just prepare the surface of the skin, it can also start to change it through exfoliation and the removal of dead skin cells. To then apply microneedling on top of the this, means that any microneedling results will be greatly increased, especially those relating to the quality of the skin.
• Increased penetration of any topical products – after both a dermaplaning treatment and a microneedling treatment, you can expect any skin care products to be more readily absorbed by the body, increasing the quality and hydration of the skin. 

Nano needling is a pain-free, non-invasive skin treatment that heralds a multitude of benefits including improved tone and texture, reduced appearance of enlarged pores, improvement to fine lines, and reduced pigmentation.

Nano needling is gentle on the skin because the tiny needles, smaller than the diameter of a human hair, only penetrate the skin to a 0.25mm depth. These needles are designed to exfoliate the skin and stimulate cell turnover, rather than to penetrate deeper into the dermis as microneedling does. 

Although nano needling only penetrates the upper layer of the dermis, the benefits for anti-ageing are still substantial, particularly when it comes to product penetration. When the silicone tipped pins gently touch the skin, they create thousands of nano channels, which allow your skincare products to penetrate deeper and have a greater effect on the skin. Within 15 minutes after nano needling, the nano channels close themselves.
