Microneedling is a cosmetic treatment where tiny needles create controlled microinjuries in the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production, which are crucial for skin renew and repair, and even hair regeneration.
It is used to improve the appearance of scars (like acne scars, stretch marks or other scaring), wrinkles, large pores, and hyperpigmentation, and to generally improve skin texture, firmness and tone.
The “why” is the stimulation of the body’s natural healing response, and the “what” is the procedure itself, a minimally invasive process using a pen-like device with fine needles.
