Micro needling is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses a device with tiny needles to create small punctures in the skin. This process stimulates the body's natural healing response, resulting in the production of new collagen and elastin, which help to improve the overall texture and appearance of the skin.
Micro needling can provide a range of benefits for the skin, including:
The micro needling procedure typically takes between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the treatment area. Before the procedure begins, a topical numbing cream is applied to the skin to minimize any discomfort. Then, the micro needling device is used to create small punctures in the skin. After the procedure is complete, a soothing serum is applied to the skin to help with the healing process.
After the micro needling procedure, it's important to take good care of your skin to promote healing and maximize the results. This may include avoiding sun exposure, using gentle skin care products, and avoiding harsh chemicals or exfoliants for a few days following the procedure. Your practitioner will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible results.
Results from micro needling can typically be seen within a few days to a week after the procedure, and will continue to improve over time as the skin produces new collagen and elastin. Depending on your skin concerns and treatment goals, multiple sessions may be recommended to achieve optimal results.
If you're looking to improve the appearance of your skin and minimize the signs of aging, micro needling may be a good option for you. However, it's important to speak with a qualified practitioner to determine if micro needling is the right choice for your unique needs and skin type.
