Microneedling Treatment
Why have a Microneedling treatment?
If you would like to improve the appearance of scars, pigmentation or give your skin a boost then you may benefit from this treatment. Microneedling devices work by harnessing your body’s innate ability to regrow and repair skin as a response to micro-injuries. By creating tiny channels in your skin, we can stimulate your skin to create collagen and elastin. This will improve your skin’s health, tone and texture. Here at The Glow Medispa, we use the Raffine Microneedling System to create proven results.
How does Microneedling work?
Microneedling devices work by creating tiny micro-injuries in your skin. As the needles enter your skin, they create miniscule channels for cosmeceutical products to be drawn deeper into the dermis. This boosts your skin’s hydration.
At the same time, your body will respond to these micro-injuries by creating collagen and elastin to heal them. Studies show that the micro-channels close by themselves within 10 to 15 minutes, leaving no visible injuries. But this is enough time for your body’s natural healing response to kick in. In the days and weeks after the treatment, this increase in collagen and elastin will help to improve your skin’s texture, tone and colour.
How soon will I see results?
You may begin to notice changes to your skin approximately a week after your treatment. But the full results will be evident after six to eight weeks.
How long should the results last?
You should see the results from your skin-needling treatment for months afterwards. You may need a course of several treatments to best address problems such as acne scarring or hyperpigmentation. We will discuss this with you at your initial consultation. Every person is different.
After your initial treatment sessions are complete, you may want to book a top-up treatment every six months to maintain your results.
