As we age our body begins to lose volume, and our skin becomes loose and elastic. This naturally happens as the building blocks of collagen proteins that help keep our cells strong and connected begins to degrade and become weaker over time. In fact, it’s no secret that aging is inevitable, but recent innovations in the world of skin care have made it possible for everyone to maintain youthful skin.One such advancement, and something that everyone can do conveniently at home, is micro needling. In fact, micro needling is becoming more popular day by day and is recommended by beauty gurus and dermatologists across the world.
What is microneedling?
Microneedling, also referred to as collagen induction therapy, involves using super-fine needles to create hundreds of tiny, invisible puncture wounds in the top layer of the skin. These wounds are called micro-injuries, and the micro-injuries that you create with microneedling stimulate the body’s innate wound-healing processes.
How does microneedling work?
Also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) or skin needling, the principle of micro needling is inserting sterile needles into the skin that create micro tunnels ( microchannels or fractional microchannels) in it, and encourage the production of collagen. As with any other treatment involving needles, skin needling can come with a minimal level of discomfort. Sometimes a numbing gel is applied before the procedure to ease the pinching feeling. It's recommended to follow up with several additional procedures a few weeks after the initial one in order to reap the full benefits of micro needling.
The procedure isn’t just for the face area. It can be used on many other areas of the body, including arms, legs, neck, abdomen, back, and hands. The result is improved texture and firmness of the skin wherever the procedure is applied.
How does microneedling with dermapen tighten skin?
During the skin’s healing process, your body produces fresh collagen to replace the damaged collagen, which rejuvenates your skin by increasing your body’s natural production of collagen and elastin. This results in an overall improvement in the texture and tightness of your skin by “filling in the lines,” and removing the wrinkles, scars, and stretch marks that can keep you looking young as you age.
How many microneedling sessions does it take to see tightened skin?
The number of treatments required varies based on two things, the first being the results you want to achieve, and the second being which part of the body treatment is being performed on. Just a few sessions of microneedling will noticeably reduce fine lines, crow’s feet, and deep wrinkles on the forehead. For most wrinkles or stretch marks on the body, depending on the severity, you may need 4 to 8 microneedling treatments to achieve optimal skin-tightening results.
A growing number of men and women are turning towards microneedling due to high levels of satisfaction with this form of treatment. Users continually rank it as one of the safest and healthiest procedures to ensure freshness and youthfulness of the skin!
