Micro-needling

Micro-needling

Microneedling is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses a device with tiny needles to create controlled micro-perforations in the skin. These micro perforations stimulate collagen and elastin production, promoting cell regeneration and improving the skin's appearance.

Who is a good candidate?

A good candidate for this type of treatment is someone looking to improve the appearance of their skin by minimizing wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, stretch marks, or uneven pigmentation. It is also suitable for people with different skin types and skin tones.

Recovery process

After microneedling, it is common to experience redness and tenderness in the treated skin, which subsides in the first 24 - 48 hours. Full recovery takes about a week. There may be mild peeling and dryness in the following days. It is recommended to follow the instructions, such as applying recommended soothing and moisturizing products, avoiding makeup, sun exposure, and irritating effects. Recovery time varies, but the skin recovers entirely within a week or two. It is essential to follow the professional's instructions for best results and to minimize the risk of complications.

Anesthesia

No anesthesia is required. If requested by the patient, topical anesthesia can be used.
