FAQ
Let's explore some common questions about Microneedling treatments.
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that aims to rejuvenate the skin. This technique involves the use of a specialised device equipped with fine, short needles. These needles create tiny punctures in the top layer of the skin, which are superficial and not typically painful. The primary purpose of these controlled micro-injuries is to stimulate the body's natural wound healing processes. This response leads to the production of collagen and elastin, two key proteins that contribute to the skin's firmness and elasticity. As a result, microneedling can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars, and improve the overall texture and tone of the skin.
Yes!! Microneedling works by creating tiny punctures in the skin, which triggers the body's natural healing process. This process stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins that are essential for healthy, youthful-looking skin. The result is improved skin texture, reduced wrinkles and fine lines, and a more even skin tone.
Yes, Microneedling is generally considered to be a safe and effective cosmetic procedure. However, as with any procedure, there is a small risk of complications, such as infection or scarring. It is important to choose a qualified and experienced practitioner to minimise the risk of complications.
The number of Microneedling sessions needed will depend on your individual skin concerns and goals. Generally, a series of 3 to 8 sessions spaced several weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. However, your practitioner may recommend a different treatment plan based on your specific needs.
There is typically little to no downtime after Microneedling. You may experience some mild redness and sensitivity for a day or two after the procedure, but this usually resolves quickly. You should avoid direct sun exposure and wear sunscreen to protect your skin during the healing process.
Microneedling is a good option for anyone who wants to improve the texture and appearance of their skin. It is safe and effective for all skin types, although it may not be recommended for those with active acne or other skin conditions. Your practitioner can help determine whether microneedling is right for you.
