***What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a very simple, safe, efficient and minimally invasive therapeutic technique. Initially it was used to rejuvenate the skin. However, it is now used for a very wide range of indications, including wrinkles, dehydrated skin, oily and problematic skin, hyperpigmentations, scars, enlarged pores, acne scars, stretch marks, alopecia … The working principle of this technique is based on the fact that the creation of a microchannel causes a controlled skin injury with a minimal damage to the epidermis. The skin is perforated with micro needles with minimal invasiveness and pain and invisible microchannels are created in the surface layer of the skin as waterways of transport within the skin. Creation of microchannels has multiple effects: they stimulate the production of collagen in the skin, stimulate neovascularization or allow transepidermal application of the products directly into the dermis. After the treatment, the client is issued with a special kind of aftercare product followed by a detailed use instruction.
***For full effectiveness of the treatment, the use of the above described serums solution and aftercare cosmetic products are mandatory. Proper aftercare products application is of great importance.
***After the procedure, the skin will be red and flushed on appearance in a similar way to a moderate sunburn. The client may also experience skin tightness and mild sensitivity to touch on the area being treated. This will diminish greatly after a few hours following the treatment and within the next 24 hours the skin will be completely healed. After 3 days most visible erythema will be absolved.
