Microneedling, or Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), involves using a tool with tiny needles at the end that make little holes or needle pricks in the top layers of skin. This procedure breaks down old tissue and triggers the production of new elastin and collagen for healthier skin. Micro-needling is proven to diminish the look of surgery and acne scars

Microneedling is a very simple, safe, effective, and minimally invasive therapeutic technique. It was initially introduced for skin rejuvenation, however, now it is being used for a very wide range of indications including acne scar, acne, post-traumatic/burn scar, alopecia, skin rejuvenation, hyperhidrosis, stretch marks, and much more.

In addition to stimulating the body to produce new collagen and elastin, microneedling can also provide a means of getting therapeutic products through the skin barrier, where they can work more efficiently.

Microneedling uses 12 small (33 gauge) needles to create micro channels in the skin that stimulate the cells response to injury. Normal healing begins the moment of tissue injury. Blood components spill into the injury, causing platelets to encounter the cellular matrix. This triggers the release of clotting factors, growth factors, and several kinds of collagen fibers. Phagocytosis occurs when neutrophils enter the area and remove foreign material, bacteria, and damaged tissue. Microneedling is not recommended for people with skin cancer, pregnant women, open lesions, a compromised immune system, on anticoagulants or blood thinners, or severe rosacea. Microneedling can help with the treatment of fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, and stretch marks This treatment minimizes pore size and improve the skin texture and tone. It is also known to be highly effective with melasma (pregnancy mask) as it does not use heat to risk post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
