The Benefits of Skin Needling

Collagen Induction Therapy is a procedure which often requires a trip to a specialist. However, Needling of the skin is a variety of collagen induction therapy which can be carried out in your own home by yourself, in your own time; this helps to smooth out wrinkles, improves scarring and reduces the appearance of stretch marks.

a common factor of scars, wrinkles, stretch marks and uneven skin is a lack of collagen. Micro needling encourages collagen production in the skin, which helps to reduce and even remove them.

Micro-needling (skin needling) is a process carried out using a roller that is covered with lots of tiny needles. These needles puncture the upper layer of skin and tenderly separate the pores of the skin. This method has 2 main advantages; it actively encourages collagen creation at the same time as allowing creams applied to the skin to be absorbed more effectively through the upper layer (epidermis) of skin. Skin needling (micro needling) creates a very tiny trauma which lasts for about an hour and doesn’t cause the skin any real harm such as bleeding in the treated area in the way that laser therapy or microdermabrasion do.

The microscopic punctures (which are often just the opening of the pores of your skin) caused by the skin micro-needling, encourage collagen production in the dermis layer and it creates the right environment for collagen and elastin formation. These key factors help the skin to cosmetically mend.

There are several alternatives to Micro-Needling, and a lot of these require visits to a specialist. These include laser therapy and Micro-Dermabrasion. Using a skin roller at home is generally much cheaper.
