Micro Skin needling & Vitamin C Nano Infusion
Micro Skin Needling Collagen Induction Therapy
Micro skin needling is a fabulous anti-aging and rejuvenating treatment for treating wrinkles, age spots, scarring and hyper-pigmentation on the face, neck, chest, hands. This procedure causes a cascade of collagen production. The production of new collagen and elastin induces a younger, healthier, plumper and firmer skin, reduces the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars and better tone, texture. It gives an overall radiance to the skin.
With numbing cream and 12 pin disposable cartridges, the treatment can be performed on all skin colors and types, and is often preferred over laser treatments as there is no risk of burning and damage to the epidermis. This technique can be done on sensitive areas like around the eyes & mouth and body areas like hands and chest and any spot areas for improvement of skin tone and texture.. Its customized to address your specific skin type and needs. Treatments are recommended in a series, one every 4 to 6 weeks depending on target. To combat the dryness post needling (it is normal for needling to cause buildup of dead skin cells while the skin rejuvenates, ), its advised to follow up with a Microdermabrasion treatment 1 to 2 weeks post needling for maximum results.
