Microneedling has become a fad in skin care. It creates tiny wounds; we will use a pen or a wand with microneedles. Although these wounds are only skin-deep, your body will respond with an alarm and send healing factors to boost skin strength, radiance and health.
Microneedling instantly makes your skin glow and can be continued for many months. Microneedling has many benefits.
10 benefits of microneedling
1. Reduces wrinkles and lines
Nobody wants to appear older than they already are. Premature ageing, which manifests as wrinkles and fine lines, is a sign of premature age. Microneedling sessions boost collagen and elastin production, which can help fight wrinkles and lines.
Your skin's collagen and elastin compounds add structure and strength to your skin, giving it a youthful appearance. Your body's wound-healing mechanisms stimulate the production of new skin cells. This makes forehead wrinkles, fine lines, and crow’s feet less noticeable.
2. Scar treatment
Microneedling stimulates collagen production and elastin formation, making it super-effective in treating acne scars. Keloid scars, also known as raised scars, are the only scar that can be treated.
3. Sun damage
The appearance of sunburns, especially hyperpigmentation, and age spots can be reduced by microneedling. Microneedling can help to improve your skin tone and reduce the appearance of a brownish, blotchy complexion.
4. Anti-ageing
Ageing is more than wrinkles and discolouration. Your skin becomes less elastic as you age, making it appear looser. The appearance of ageing skin can also make it duller and less radiant. This can be changed by microneedling.
Skin structure can be improved by the build up of collagen due to tiny wounds. You will notice a radiant glow 24 hours after your session.
5. Shrinks pores
Microneedling is a technique that involves drilling holes into your skin. However, it does not increase the size or shape of your pores. It makes your pores look smaller. The collagen in your pores will shrink when stimulated.
6. Enhances the effectiveness of topical creams
After microneedling, it is a great time to use anti-ageing creams, moisturisers and other top-quality treatments to improve skin appearance and health. Micro-holes can receive creams, serums and gels faster and more profound than when applied frequently.
7. Combat stretch marks
You can use microneedling anywhere on your body. It effectively reduces stretch marks that appear after periods of rapid growth, such as during pregnancy.
8. Rosacea reduction
Microneedling can treat rosacea's ruddiness or thickening skin. This skin condition can lead to a rapid breakdown of collagen. Micro-needling can stimulate collagen growth to replace and offset this loss. Your skin will appear less irritated and inflamed.
9. Acne improvements
Microneedling can improve topical acne treatments' efficacy due to the increased delivery of top-of-the-line applications. Signature Skin Care can provide regular microneedling treatments to help clear your skin.
10. Laser and intensive peels have fewer side effects
The effects of microneedling are similar to chemical and laser peel treatments, but without downtime, Micro-needling can give you a radiant complexion within 24 hours. However, laser resurfacing may take up to 10 days. After a medium or intense peel, your complexion will take 14-21 days to recover.
