Microneedling is a safe and effective skin rejuvenation treatment which restores the healthy appearance of skin by stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin.
Through controlled microneedle insertion of the dermis layer of the skin it creates micro-injuries. This induced superficial trauma triggers new collagen synthesis to regenerate and thicken the skin, yet does not pose the risk of permanent scarring.
The new collagen and elastin formed reduce wrinkle depth and the appearance of scars and other skin imperfections, leaving the skin smoother, clearer, firmer and younger looking.
It has minimal downtime and comparable effectiveness to more invasive treatments such as laser resurfacing, dermabrasion and deep chemical peels. As it does not require removal of the epidermis the healing time is shorter.
Microneedling is suitable for all skin types and the more delicate skin around mouth and neck. It can also be used on body (stretch marks, scar, saggy skin).
There are different protocols/time intervals and serums for treatment depending on the problem that needs addressing. Generally hair loss needs weekly treatments (4-8 courses and review), skin problems every 3-6 weeks.
Microneeding can be combined with other skin rejuvenation treatments such as polynucleotides, skin boosters , anti-wrinkle injections, dermofillers and mesotherapy.
Mesotherapy and microneedling serums are specialised and sterile products, CE marked and licensed for the purpose of these treatments. The needles should be sterile and single use for both mesotherapy and microneedling.
I use Clinicare, Dermafocus and Fillmed microneedling licensed sterile serums:
