Microneedling involves using a device equipped with fine needles to create tiny punctures in the top layer of the skin. These micro-injuries trigger the skin’s healing response, which includes:
Increased collagen and elastin production
Improved cell turnover
Enhanced absorption of topical products
Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
Improves acne scars and surgical scars
Minimizes pore size
Enhances skin tone and texture
Can help with stretch marks
Improves overall skin firmness and elasticity
