MICRONEEDLING – SKIN PEN

What is Microneedling? :
A handheld device with microneedles penetrates the skin’s surface, triggering a natural immune response to disinfect, remove debris, increase blood flow, and activate the creation of new tissues. The micro-channels or tiny holes created are rebuilt with new granulation cells, including collagen proteins. These proteins improve skin quality, visibly reducing facial acne scars and neck wrinkles, leaving the skin more smooth, radiant, and younger looking.

What can I expect with microneedling?:
Microneedling is a 30-minute treatment performed by a master aesthetician. A local numbing cream is used for a more comfortable treatment. Expect the treated areas will be red and warm for 2-5 days. For 24 hours post-treatment, use a hyaluronic acid, barrier cream, and mild cleanser. Avoid using makeup, sun exposure, swimming, or hot tubes for the first 24 – 48 hours.
