MEDICAL MICRONEEDLING

​

Medical Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy, is a non-surgical treatment that penetrates the top layer of the skin with micro-needles to trigger collagen and elastin production. 

This procedure can be used to reduce fine lines, shrink enlarged pores, minimize scarring, and repair hyperpigmentation.  To achieve the best results, we recommend an initial course of three treatments

at six-week intervals.

WHAT TO EXPECT

​

The procedure involves using an automated medical device that gently punctures the skin with tiny sterile needles.  Most people report minimal discomfort. A topical numbing cream is applied prior

to treatment.  Mild swelling and redness may occur but this is typically resolved within a few days.

 

Refrain from washing your face and applying makeup or sunscreen for six hours following the treatment.  At your consultation, you will be provided with a post-treatment kit and detailed instructions on how to care for your skin during the recovery period.

 

To ensure that you are happy and that optimal results are achieved, it is recommended that you

attend a follow-up assessment after two weeks.
