Microneedling Collagen Induction Therapy

Microneedling, also known as micropenning, is a revolutionary skincare treatment that harnesses the power of your skin’s own self-repair process. By creating thousands of precise micro-injuries to the dermis, microneedling stimulates the production of collagen and elastin without causing scar tissue formation. This minimally invasive procedure maximizes your skin’s ability to heal and rejuvenate itself, resulting in a more youthful and radiant complexion.

The Microneedling Process: Unveiling the Science Behind the Magic

During the Microneedling Collagen Induction Therapy, we employ the SkinPen® Precision, the latest advancement in micro-therapy. This FDA-approved device is specifically designed to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars on both the face and body. Unlike traditional derma-rollers that can be prone to bending, breaking, or rusting, the SkinPen guarantees enhanced safety and efficacy with its adjustable length, disposable straight needles that penetrate at a 90-degree angle. This adjustability accommodates differences in skin thickness and types, ensuring optimal results.

Enhancing Safety and Comfort for Optimal Results

At our clinic, your safety and comfort are our top priorities. To support proper wound healing, we use LIFT HG, a clean and non-cytotoxic hydrogel. This hydrogel not only hydrates the skin but also balances pH levels during and after the procedure. With our commitment to safety and patient satisfaction, we have earned the trust of our clients.

Tailored Treatments for Various Skin Concerns

Microneedling is a versatile treatment suitable for a wide range of skin concerns. By adjusting the needle depth, we can effectively target different conditions:

• Shallow needle depth (approximately 0.5mm): Ideal for treating pore size, skin texture, fine lines, minor scarring, and crepe skin.
• Medium needle depth (approximately 1.0mm): Suitable for addressing fine lines and scarring.
• Deeper needle depth (approximately 1.5mm to 2.0mm): Effective for deep acne scarring, surgical and deeper scars, wrinkles, pore size, and skin texture.

Are You a Candidate for Microneedling?

One of the remarkable features of microneedling is its minimally invasive nature, making it safe for almost anyone. Even individuals with thin skin can undergo this treatment, thanks to the precise control over the depth of penetration.

The Benefits of Microneedling: Unveiling a New You

Microneedling offers a multitude of benefits, including:

• Reduction of signs of aging
• Improvement in the appearance of acne scars
• Rejuvenation of aging skin

This procedure is performed in-office and requires little recovery time. It is safe for all skin types, making it suitable for a variety of individuals. Microneedling has proven to be effective on various body parts, including the face, neck, and décolletage.

Preparing for Your Microneedling Treatment

To ensure optimal results, it is essential to follow pre-treatment guidelines. Avoid using chemical peels, Retin-A, or other exfoliating creams before your visit. During your initial consultation, our team will assess your skincare regimen and address any questions or concerns you may have.

The Treatment Process: A Journey to Rejuvenation

Your microneedling appointment will be conducted by our highly skilled and experienced team members. For treatments with shallower needle depths, one of our Licensed Estheticians will perform the procedure. For more invasive depths, a medical team member will handle your session.

Before the procedure begins, we apply a topical anesthetic cream to ensure a comfortable experience. Most patients report feeling only a slight vibration during the treatment, with minimal pain. The total treatment time depends on the area being treated, with a typical facial session lasting about an hour.

Aftercare: Nurturing Your Skin for Optimal Results

Proper aftercare is crucial to promote healing and maximize results. Keep your skin hydrated and moisturized as it undergoes the resurfacing process. Choose moisturizers with anti-inflammatory ingredients to soothe the treated area and reduce redness. Avoid using exfoliators and alcohol-based toners until your skin has fully healed. Additionally, always use a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher, especially following a microneedling procedure. The healing time varies from person to person, with most patients experiencing slight swelling and redness for two to four days, similar to a mild to moderate sunburn. To further support the healing process, we can recommend post-procedure home care products.

Embrace Your Beauty: Emphasizing the Importance of Confidence

Patients can typically resume their normal makeup routine two to three days after the microneedling procedure, depending on the area and depth of needle penetration. Microneedling empowers you to embrace your natural beauty and enhance it with the power of confidence.

Achieving the Best Results: A Journey Worth Taking

To achieve optimal results, we recommend three to four microneedling treatments. For more severe scarring, up to six treatments may be necessary. The number of sessions depends on your individual goals and the overall health of your skin. As part of your anti-aging routine, you may also consider one to two maintenance procedures per year to maintain the rejuvenating effects.

Combining Treatments for Enhanced Results

At our clinic, we understand that every individual has unique skincare needs. That’s why we offer combination therapies to help you achieve your desired results. Microneedling can be combined with other restorative procedures, allowing us to tailor a comprehensive treatment plan specifically for you. We recommend scheduling these combination treatments separately, as the micro-puncturing of the skin triggers a wound-healing process that requires time to complete.

SkinPen: The Pinnacle of Microneedling Technology

SkinPen sets itself apart from dermal needling rollers in several ways:

1. Adjustable needle depth: Unlike dermal rollers with fixed depths, SkinPen offers customizable needle depths to meet your specific skincare needs. With a single needle tip, we can address areas such as crow’s feet, lower eyelids, forehead, upper lip, cheeks, and neck.
2. Enhanced safety: SkinPen utilizes sterile, single-use surgical-grade disposable needle tips, ensuring maximum safety and hygiene.
3. Faster treatment: SkinPen’s high-speed motor enables quick needle penetration, resulting in a more comfortable and shorter treatment experience.
4. Consistent results: With its safety and control features, SkinPen guarantees predictable and consistent outcomes.

Unveiling the Science Behind Microneedling

Microneedling triggers three phases of the wound-repair process:

1. Inflammation: The skin’s immune system is activated, disinfecting the wounds, removing debris, increasing blood flow, and initiating tissue regeneration.
2. Proliferation: New granulation cells and blood vessels are formed, rebuilding the wounded area.
3. Remodeling: The wound is replaced with new dermal tissues and blood vessels, resulting in improved skin texture and appearance.

Clinical studies have demonstrated the efficacy of microneedling for various skin types. In one study involving sixty patients with acne scarring, microneedling treatments resulted in a 31% improvement in skin texture, with no discoloration. Microneedling has proven to be a powerful skincare treatment for all skin types.
