Microneedling also called CID (Collagen Induction Therapy), helps your skin increase its own collagen and elastin production. By creating tiny micro-injuries to the dermis, microneedling encourages your skin to rejuvenate. The results are improved skin and texture and a reduced appearance of wrinkles, stretch marks and acne scars.
What is Microneedling and how does it work?
Microneedling treatment uses a hand held needle pen to create controlled depth micro-injuries to the skin. This stimulates the skin’s natural repair process to produce collagen and elastin.
Increasing collagen and elastin production internally as well as helping the skin absorb essential vitamins and nutrients during the process of application is the purpose of our microneedling. Elastin and collagen fibers are the healthy building blocks of tight, evenly textured skin. Microneedling is done using a hand-held device with 12 or more microneedles at the tip; these microneedles make tiny punctures in the skin in an evenly spaced manner. Natural healing processes are activated once these micro-channels are made in the skin.
Benefits of Microneedling:
- Improves texture and tone
- Softens fine lines and wrinkles
- Rejuvenates skin and reduces pore size
- Improves laxity
- Reduces mild to moderate acne scarring and stretch marks
- Restores sun damaged skin and superficial pigmentation or hypo-pigmentation
- Supplies healthy, fresh vitamins and minerals in the skin
- Promotes healing and hydration
- Improves micro-circulation
After your microneedling procedure, our team will give you specific instructions and recommendations on how to optimize your result. On average, it only takes about 72 hours to heal completely, and many people will see results in two to four weeks.
How many microneedling treatments will you need?
Depending on the degree of improvements you require, we may recommend anywhere from three to six treatments, and each treatment is set about a month apart. At InVogue Med Spa, we help our clients reach their skin goals with full skincare treatment plans.
