Micro-needling, also known as collagen induction therapy, involves the use of a device equipped with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. These tiny punctures trigger the body’s natural healing response, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. The technique can be performed using various devices, including derma rollers and motorized pens, allowing for precise and customizable treatment.
The depth of the needles can be adjusted depending on the skin’s thickness and the specific concerns being addressed. Micro-needling is a versatile procedure suitable for treating a range of skin issues, including wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven texture. With multiple sessions spaced apart, patients can achieve gradual improvements in skin tone, texture, and overall appearance. It’s essential to undergo micro-needling under the supervision of a trained skincare professional to ensure safety and optimal results.
