Microneedling
Microneedling is a popular way to stimulate collagen (it is actually referred to by some as “collagen induction therapy”).
One of the reasons microneedling is so popular is that it is associated with minimal downtime and is safe to use on almost all skin types.
Microneedling can be used to treat fine lines, enlarged pores, acne scars, and surgical scars.
What is microneedling?
Microneedling involves the use of a needle-containing device that creates microscopic puncture wounds on the skin. The skin then heals with new collagen and elastin, which creates the improvements that we see with microneedling.
What is microneedling used for?
The greatest advantage of microneedling is that it is safe to use on almost all skin types. Microneedling is primarily used for:
Dull texture
