Reasons to Try Microneedling

The beauty industry is always looking for new, painless treatments to help people achieve clear and youthful skin, and microneedling is definitely a helpful option. This non-surgical procedure uses a specialized device to create tiny punctures in the skin, which encourages collagen production and allows for better absorption of skincare products. Over the ensuing weeks and months, clients will see a noticeable difference in their skin texture, fine lines, and overall radiance.

Here are the main reasons why microneedling is so popular:

1. Microneeding is Safe and Effective

The procedure is minimally invasive and, when performed by a trained professional, is harmless and effective. The microneedling device is passed over the skin during the treatment, creating tiny punctures that don’t penetrate down to the depth of nerve endings. The needle depth can be adjusted to ensure that the appropriate skin level is targeted and there is minimal discomfort during the procedure.

2. Faster Cell Turnover

By stimulating cell turnover, microneedling gives the skin a chance to regenerate and heal itself, resulting in a quicker turnover of cells. This also allows the skin to better fight off damage from free radicals and other environmental stressors.

3. Recovery Time Is Short

There is little to no downtime required for recovery after microneedling, and most people can return to normal activities immediately after the procedure. Since there is no cutting or skin ablation, there is no risk of infection or scarring.

4. Microneedling Can Be Used On All Skin Types

Unlike other procedures only suitable for specific skin types, microneedling can be safely performed on all skin types. The tone and skin type do not matter when it comes to reaping the benefits of microneedling.

5. RF Can Help Break Down Scar Tissue

Radiofrequency (RF) energy can penetrate deep into the skin, which helps break down scar tissue. This can significantly enhance the appearance of acne scars, stretch marks, and other types of scarring.

6. Almost Any Area of the Body Can Be Treated

Microneedling can be used to treat any area with acne scarring, discoloration, and wrinkles. The face, neck, chest, and hands are common areas treated, but the procedure can be performed on any body area.

7. RF Can Accelerate Skin Tightening and Collagen Production

When RF energy is applied to the skin, it causes a thermal reaction that accelerates skin tightening and collagen building. As we age, our bodies produce less and less collagen. With RF microneedling, you can stimulate a significant reduction in the appearance of wrinkles or fine lines and assist in enhancing your overall complexion.

8. Treatments Can Be Tailored For Each Individual

Microneedling isn’t a one-size-fits-all procedure; it can be personalized to each individual’s specific needs and goals. The needles’ depth and the RF energy intensity can all be adjusted to ensure that the best possible results are achieved. The needle tips can also be changed to target different areas of the skin.
