microneedling.

needles.

Microneedling is nothing short of amazing. This treatment utilizes micro surgical titanium steel needles to penetrate the skin creating micro openings in the top layer of the skin, thus stimulating the lower layers to produce more collagen and elastin without major damage or pain. The micro-trauma to the skin created by the needle tips activates blood to the treated site (erythema/redness & in some cases pinpoint bleeding) which release natural growth factors and in return creates the cellular matrix. Fibroblast cells then work to replace collagen fibers of the skin and begin to repair. The cell renewal is stimulated and the skin starts making more collagen and elastin.

Cosmetic microneedling is generally safe for most skin types, including normal, dry, oily, and combination skin. It can be beneficial for individuals with various skin concerns, such as acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, enlarged pores, uneven skin texture and even rosacea. However, certain skin conditions, like active acne, eczema, or psoriasis, may need to avoid microneedling as it could exacerbate those conditions. $225
