Skin needling, also called micro needling therapy, collagen induction therapy (CIT), is a minimally invasive skin-rejuvenation procedure that involves the use of
a device that
contains fine needles.This treatment is extremely popular because it activates one’s own body to produce collagen, and ultimately, reduce the
appearance of fine wrinkles, lines,
and acne scars.
How Does Micro Needling Work?
During the treatment micro injury happens to the skin. It involves using fine needles to create tiny, invisible puncture wounds on the top layer of skin, so
within minutes these injuries boost collagen production and elastin.The micro-injuries that are created stimulate the body's natural wound-healing process.
Since collagen is a key to youthful and healthy skin,
the result is smoother, shiny and softer skin. Micro needling does not significantly damage the epidermis and there is virtually no risk of infection or scarring from the procedure. The result is glowing
remodeling and rejuvenation, while keeping the overall structure of the skin intact. Micro needling can be safely performed on various parts of the body,
including
the face, stomach, legs, arms, and chest.
Benefits of this treatment:
Little to no downtime.
Helps Reduce Pore Size.
Reduces Wrinkles.
Fades Acne Scars.
Treats surgical scars/melasma.
Treats Pigmentation/Sun Damage.
Stimulates Growth of Collagen and Elastin.
Ideal any time of the year.
Micro needling is a good treatment for men and women with all types and colours of skin.
Micro-needling is a simple process which can be divided into three main types.
1- Treatment
Using NON-TRAUMATIC NEEDLES we create more than a million healing centres in the skin in an average treatment. The needles penetrate the skin to different depths,
depending on
the area and treatment indication. In CIT treatments (i.e. anti-aging, scars, stretch marks), the purpose is to identify pinpoint bleeding ( minimal
blood droplets). In Hair Growth & Pigmentation treatments, the needles are usually shorter and pinpoint bleeding is not necessarily seen.
2- Healing Process
“Controlled damage” instructs the skin to heal slowly and correctively, rather than in emergency mode. Cells that specialized in wound healing become active, migrate
to the site
of the wound and proliferate. Punctured capillaries bring blood platelets, immune cells and endothelial cells that release growth factors & cytokines.
These increase cellular
signalling and amplify the healing response.
3- Healthy Skin
After healing, damaged skin is replaced by new skin with improved structure, firmness and elasticity. The content of collagen and other components of the extracellular
matrix are replenished. Cellular functions are restored and skin cells are reset to their healthy mode of operation. In essence, Micro-needing treatment results in
ealthier and, consequently
better looking skin.

How Many Treatments Are Required?
In order to achieve noticeable results, four to eight treatments are required. There is little to no downtime for this treatment.
Clients can go back to their normal life after treatment
and wear makeup 24 hours after the treatment, some experience mild discomfort,
redness but nothing that would cause to stay indoors for a period of time.
What will I experience after my treatment?
The skin will appear slightly pink to red immediately post-procedure. It is normal for clients to experience redness, tightness of the skin, there may be some
noticeable swelling on
the day and following the treatment. Clients with sensitive skin may experience redness for two-three days.
Some people have mild peeling of dead skin three-four days after the treatment. These conditions resolved over time without any further complications.
It is recommended clients avoid working out, wearing makeup and stay out of the sun for at least
24 hours following the treatment.
How long do micro needling results last?
Your results will last anywhere from three to six months depending on your skin concerns. It is recommended to schedule follow-up treatments twice a year to maintain
the results.
The Hair Repair & Skin Rejuvenation Vitamin ampules are alternately infused during the professional Micro-needing hair treatment protocol.
They promote healthy hair growth and optimize follicle functions to reverse the process of follicle miniaturization. The Hair Lotion is used at home in between and
after the professional treatments, and can be combined
with the Dermaroller Home Care Roller to nourish the follicles, support hair recovery, and maintain the
professional results.
