Collagen Induction Therapy Is An Effective Skin Treatment for Wrinkles, Large Pores & Scars.

This process stimulates the skin’s natural healing response, resulting in the production of collagen and elastin to create smoother, more rejuvenated skin.

How Does Skin Needling Work?
Skin needling is a procedure that employs microneedles to puncture the skin in microscopic places. This encourages the creation of collagen and elastin, which helps skin conditions like scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, and acne scarring appear smoother, finer, better.
There are three phases to the wound healing response that work together to create an effective method of improving the skin's apperance.
Inflammation
Piercing the skin triggers your immune system to disinfect the wounds, remove debris, increase blood flow and begin to create new tissue.
Proliferation
The wound is re-built with new granulation cells, which are part of the extracellular matrix. Additionally, a new network of blood vessels develops.
Remodelling
In this final phase, the wound is replaced with new dermal tissues and blood vessels. Resulting in stronger collagen and skin tightening.
WHAT DOES SKIN NEEDLING TREAT?
Skin Needling is an Effective Solution For Various Skin Conditions including Acne Scarring.
