MICRO NEEDLE THERAPY
It is a safe and increasingly popular skin renewal technique to restore the healthy youthful appearance of the skin at a fraction of the cost of comparable treatments and with minimal or zero downtime
Micro needle produces comparable results to ”ablative techniques” such as lasers, dermabrasion and deep chemical peels, but is much less invasive and does not require the removal of skin surface. As a result, healing time is shorter and there is no post-treatments sensitivity to UV light.
Micro needling produces better results that other “non-ablative” techniques with virtually no pain or post-treatments discomfort.

HOW DOES MICRO NEEDLING WORK?
The concept of skin needling (also known as Collagen Induction Therapy CIT) is based on the skin’s natural ability to repair itself whenever it encounters physical damage such as cuts, burns or other abrasions. Immediately after an injury occurs to the skin, the body removes the damaged collagen, elastin and other structures which are then replaced by new components. Skin needling allows for controlled induction of the skin’s self-repair mechanism by creating micro-injuries which trigger new collagen synthesis, yet does not pose the risk of permanent scarring. As a result, new collagen and elastin is formed to reduce wrinkle depth, increase skin elasticity, improve the appearance of scars and other skin flaws, the skin is smoother, firmer and younger looking.
WHAT RESULTS CAN I EXPECT?
Visible signs of skin rejuvenation are usually seen after just 2-6 weeks following the treatment and continue to improve for up to a year or more
It is recommended a minimum course of 3 micro – needling treatments at 6 weeks intervals to achieve optimum results.

IS MICRO NEEDLING SAFE?
Yes. It has been a safe cosmetic procedure in existance for more than 25 years. Unlike more aggressive (ablative) treatments such as lasers or deep peels, the epidermis stays intact with skin needling. This means much faster healing time and minimizes any risk of scarring and hyperpigmentation. It is also important you select trained practitioner who uses professional dermaroller or dermapen, natural serums and creams during the treatment.

Titanium dermal roller Medic 8 or dermal pen, which will be used for your treatment has several unique differences to other rollers for dermatological use:
- Titanium needle composition. Rather than being made from stainless steel, like many other brands, the needles are manufactures from titanium. Other needles can be blunt more readily, whereas titanium provides a much finer edge that lasts longer and prevents excess irritation caused by blunted needles.
- Manufactures in EU. Many of dermal rollers available on the market today are manufactures in China and Korea are very cheap and unfortunately don’t meet the same standards as the EU. The Medic8 dermal roller are manufactures specifically and precision engineered in Sweden.
- Gold plated titanium needles help inhibit microbial growth and maintain sterility. Also gold-plated titanium protects the body from nickel exposure.
