Dermal needling is also known as skin needling. Its more technical term is ‘Collagen Induction Therapy’. It is perfect for those who want to firm their skin, reduce wrinkles, even out scaring, reduce pigmentation and boost overall skin health.
Dermal needling is a special regenerating skin treatment that penetrates deep into the underlying skin layers. Titanium micro needles, varying of sizes between 0.5mm to 1.5mm, are used all over the skin to stimulate collagen production.
The process of dermal needling creates controlled micro wounds into your skin. This allows your body to produce new collagen cells into these small wounds, which in turn help to protect your skin. The body’s natural wound healing response is stimulated and manipulated to target your particular skin concerns.
Dermal needling is mostly used to treatment skin conditions on faces, but other areas of the body can benefit from this treatment. Other areas of the body that can benefit from dermal needling include chest, back, neck and hands.
