MORE INFORMATION ON MICRONEEDLING FOR WRINKLES

For the past two decades, microneedling has been a popular therapy. It has shown to be a successful method for activating the body’s healing processes on the surface skin, reducing the indications of acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, regions of loose skin, big pores, stretch marks, and pigmentation issues.

Microneedling replicates hundreds of tiny skin injuries. This activates your body’s natural healing mechanism and promotes collagen and elastin production. Collagen and elastin increases assist to revitalize the skin and smooth fine and deep wrinkles.

Microneedling is a less invasive cosmetic treatment used to address skin issues by stimulating collagen formation. This procedure, also known as collagen induction therapy, may benefit people who want to minimize the appearance of acne scars and stretch marks.

It is also utilized in anti-aging operations such as eyelid surgery and the removal of sun spots. Despite the potential involvement of collagen in hair development, microneedling is ineffective for hair loss.

Microneedling is less costly than laser treatments, which may be up to four times as expensive. Microneedling may be more effective for those with darker skin tones than laser treatments since it does not use heat, which might change your skin’s pigmentation or color. Consult your dermatologist about what is best for your skin tissue – and your wallet.

If you are in excellent health and have specific skin problems that have not responded to home therapies or other forms of dermatologic procedures, such as peels, you may be an ideal candidate for this surgery.

HOW DOES MICRONEEDLING WORK

By inflicting damage on the skin or dermis, microneedling stimulates the synthesis of collagen and other healing elements to rectify the appearance of scars on layers of the skin which can be caused by acne, sun damage, or some other type of past trauma that will repair an individual’s complexion.

What’s the result of microneedling treatment? The person will have a much more youthful look for a fraction of the price of more expensive surgical procedures. When working with a trusted team of doctors, you will experience minimal discomfort and only mild swelling.

Collagen is an important protein that contributes to the skin’s young appearance by keeping it firm, smooth, and elastic.

Aging causes a decrease in collagen production in the skin, which contributes to wrinkles and other indications of aging.

Injuries to the skin, such as acne scarring, stretch marks, or other scars, can also cause collagen loss.

It is critical to understand that microneedling is not a fast treatment because it includes the formation of new skin. It may take many months to see the full effects of the treatment.

INDICATIONS

Blends of Botox, hyaluronic acid gels, growth factors, PRP, vitamins deliver almost immediate smoothening of sun damaged and thinning skin.
The channeling of micro Botox is particularly helpful in rosacea.
It is ideal for people who want to improve their skin but have can’t afford any downtime.
Microchanneling does not replace laser treatments or deeper injectables. It does, however, beautifully complement them.

THE TREATMENT

There is no need for numbing. The skin is thoroughly cleansed and the platform of micro needles is gently and evenly stamped over the entire face. The most needy areas get extra passes. At the end, the skin just has a rosy glow and you are ready to go to enjoy your now radiant skin!

THE SCIENCE

How are they different? With microneedling, the active ingredients penetrate the skin via the micro-channels created by the needle punctures. Depth of penetration can be adjusted. Aquagold Fine Touch delivers the ingredients via the hollow ridges on the outside of each hair-fine needle directly underneath the skin surface, at the same depth everywhere.
