SkinPen Microneedling
SkinPen Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to rejuvenate and improve skin texture. Utilizing a medical-grade device equipped with fine needles, it creates a controlled series of micro-injuries on the skin's surface. These micro-punctures trigger the body's natural wound healing process, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. These vital proteins are responsible for maintaining the skin's structure, elasticity, and overall youthful appearance. As a result, SkinPen Microneedling effectively addresses a range of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven skin tone. By promoting cellular turnover and collagen synthesis, this treatment helps to restore a smoother, firmer, and more radiant complexion.
How does it work?
SkinPen Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the use of a precision device equipped with tiny, sterile needles. These needles create a series of microscopic punctures in the skin, a process known as collagen induction therapy. This controlled injury triggers the body's natural wound healing response, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins that contribute to the skin's structure, elasticity, and overall tone. As the body works to repair these micro-injuries, it produces new collagen and elastin, resulting in improved skin texture, reduced appearance of scars and fine lines, and a more youthful complexion. The depth of the needles can be adjusted to target specific skin concerns, allowing for a customized treatment approach.
