Mirconeedling is a form of collagen induction therapy, a factually proven treatment for a wide range of skin conditions ranging from minor skin wrinkles to deep stretch marks.
The roller itself uses tiny needles or micro-needles which create tiny, evenly-spaced puncture wounds on the skin. This process stimulates the body’s natural collagen production by generating a wound healing response. The roller is much like a fine tattooing needle, so it should cause minimal trauma when creating the microscopic punctures in the skin. By damaging the skin you encourage the body to produce new collagen and elastin, which helps it thicken and plump up.
- Sterilize the roller head prior to use.
- Firmly (but not aggressively) roll your skin 4 to 8 times in total. Left to right, then top to bottom, then diagonally both ways.
- Clean your roller once finished.
We recommend that you apply a skin rejuvenation cream before and/or after the treatment. Hyaluronic acid is a safe and effective option. We recommend you do not use any retinoid products with microneedling as they can be harsh on the skin.
