Microneedling
There are two types of microneedling: Medical needling which must be performed by a medical professional and cosmetic needling, which can be done by a licensed skin care professional.
Both procedures lead to increased collagen production, improving the appearance of wrinkles and fine line, but they carry different downtime, costs and healing times. Which one is right for you?
Medical Microneedling
Medical microneedling uses longer needles to stimulate the dermis, your skins deeper layers. The longer needles reach the deep dermis, making it effective for treating acne and other scars by breaking up scar tissue and inducing skin remodelling.
