​

Micro-needling is a non-surgical resurfacing procedure that involves the osmosis of tiny needles into the skin. These needles create controlled micro-injuries at max 3 millimeters deep which aid in cellular turnover and collagen induction. Immediately after an injury to the skin, our body uses the damaged collagen as well as other damaged skin components to produce new cells.

​

The alignment of needles conclusively stimulate collagen formation, while providing a channel for topical serum’s and vitamins to be adequately absorbed through the epidermal layer of the skin.

​

This is a natural treatment which cultivates skin texture, revamps fine lines/wrinkles, and smooths and softens depressed acne scarring. It can also greatly help minimize the appearance of stretch marks and deep pores. The results are smoother, firmer, younger looking skin.

​

Unlike laser treatments, micro-needling is beneficial and suitable for all skin types and all areas of the body. We are able to treat areas such as your face, body, neck, hands and décolleté.

What is the recovery time?

Micro-needling is a relatively easy treatment that requires very little downtime after the procedure. After treatment you can expect your skin to be slightly pink to red as you may experience minor bleeding throughout the treatment. Minor bruising is also a possibility depending on the depth of the needle during the procedure (in areas such as the chin, forehead and around eyes). With that being said, the downtime for this treatment is relatively prompt and you can expect to have full recovery between 24 to 72 hours.

​

A series of 2 to 5 treatments is typically recommended, which is spread out over 4 to 6 weeks. This allows your skin to fully heal in between sessions.

​

Because of your bodies own collagen production, it can take 4-8 weeks before you start to see the benefits, 2-3 treatments for overall texture, smoothness and minimized pore size. Mild to moderate acne scars, fine lines or sun spots may require 3-4 sessions.

Every client is different and results will vary.
