Microneedling
Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure in which the aestheticican creates micro channels in the skin using a sterile medical device to allow controlled injury.The treatment is performed using a handheld device that contains several small needles. The skin undergoes the healing process, produces fibroblast cells and collagen to repair the area resulting in a bright and refreshed complexion.This results in firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin. Microneedling can be used to treat a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin texture. Microneedling also boosts the penetration of topical skincare ensuring long lasting results.
