What is MICRONEEDLING?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure using thin needles. The procedure can help reduce the appearance of skin concerns such as acne scars, stretch marks or wrinkles. Most people get microneedling for cosmetic purposes, but it can also help with some medical conditions.
Your healthcare provider uses thin needles to make tiny holes in the top layer of your skin. The damage helps stimulate your skin’s healing process, so it produces more collagen and elastin. These proteins keep your skin firm and smooth.
Revitalize Your Skin with Microneedling
Microneedling is a highly effective cosmetic procedure that utilizes a device with fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin's surface. This treatment is proven to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and stretch marks, leaving you with a smoother, more youthful complexion.
Microneedling vs. microdermabrasion: What’s the difference?
Microneedling and microdermabrasion are both procedures to improve the look and texture of your skin. But microdermabrasion doesn’t use needles. Instead, a healthcare provider uses a device with a rough edge, like sandpaper, to exfoliate the uppermost layer of your skin. Microneedling goes deeper into your skin than microdermabrasion, so it might work better for problems beneath the surface, such as acne scars.
Who gets microneedling?
Microneedling has cosmetic and medical uses. You might consider microneedling if you’re concerned about:
-
Enlarged pores.
-
Fine lines or wrinkles.
-
Loose or crepey (thin and wrinkled) skin.
-
Mild scars, especially those from acne or burns.
-
Skin discoloration or uneven skin tone.
The procedure can also help people who have medical conditions such as:
-
Alopecia areata (hair loss due to an autoimmune disease).
-
Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).
In some cases, healthcare providers use microneedling to deliver drugs or vaccines directly into your skin. The microneedles might be part of a patch that people apply themselves instead of going to their healthcare provider for shots.
