auto_awesomeWhat is microneedling?
Microneedling (also called collagen induction therapy) is a treatment that uses a medical device with ultra-fine needles (Dermapen) to create thousands of controlled microchannels in the skin. These microchannels activate the body's natural healing process and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin.
It is one of the most effective options for improving overall skin quality, reducing scars, and rejuvenating the skin without extended downtime.
auto_awesomeHow does it work?
The Dermapen performs multiple controlled punctures at adjustable depths (0.5-3.0 mm). This triggers three biological responses:
- Inflammation: the microneedles create a controlled "injury"
- Proliferation: collagen and elastin production ramps up
- Remodeling: the skin regenerates with newer, healthier tissue
In addition, the microchannels allow topical products (PRP, vitamins, hyaluronic acid) to penetrate up to 200 times deeper into the skin.
