So what is Microneedling first of all?
Microneedling benefits are gained through a procedure using a very fine needle which punctures the dermis of the skin while causing minimal damage to the epidermis. This opens microchannels in the skin to allow much deeper penetration of beneficial substances. The effect of puncturing the dermis is that the dermis reacts as if it has been wounded, so growth factors are released stimulating the production of new elastin and collagen – your key to a fresh and youthful looking skin.
Microneedling benefits over other skin resurfacing methods
There will likely be no skin damage, and the skin will heal in a very short time. Results will be quick and longer lasting. No pain associated with the procedure or significantly less. There is little risk of permanent discolouration, and it is suitable for all skin types, including thin skin. Few to no side effects.
Microneedling benefits vs rollers – different areas of the face require different needle depths. Vertical microneedling offers the clinician unlimited needle depth changes during the treatment, while rollers have fixed needle lengths. Microneedling also causes less damage to the epidermis.
Microneedling benefits your pocket too as it is much less expensive for you than laser treatment. It is also much less painful.
When can you expect to see results from micro-needling?
With in salon treatments the final results might not be noticeable until you hit the three to twelve months mark as boosting collagen and elastin within the dermis takes time. However, as with most treatments it depends on the individual.
When should you avoid micro-needling?
“It can be used on all skin colours and skin types, however it should be avoided if one has an active infection on the skin such as impetigo, active and inflamed acne or rosacea,” says Dr Suchitra Badvey, Consultant Dermatologist at 25 Harley Street. Those with hypersensitive skin, acute eczema or sun burnt skin should also avoid the technique.
