Microneedling

Micro needling, also known as collagen induction therapy, involves the use of a small device called a micro roller or derma roller that contains fine needles. This device is rolled over the skin, creating controlled micro-injuries that stimulate the body's natural healing response and collagen production.

The history of micro needling can be traced back thousands of years to ancient Chinese and Egyptian civilizations, where various forms of dermal needling were used for therapeutic purposes. In modern times, micro needling has gained popularity as a cosmetic procedure for facial rejuvenation and addressing skin concerns.

The Benefits of Microneedling include:

Improved skin texture and tone: Micro needling promotes the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential proteins for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. This can help improve the overall texture and tone of the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven pigmentation.
Enhanced product absorption: The micro-channels created by the needles allow skincare products to penetrate deeper into the skin, increasing their effectiveness. This can optimize the benefits of serums, moisturizers, and other skincare formulations.
Reduced pore size: Micro needling can help minimize the appearance of enlarged pores by stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin.
Scar reduction: Micro needling has been shown to be effective in reducing the appearance of scars, including acne scars and surgical scars. It encourages collagen remodeling, leading to smoother and more even skin.

When used in conjunction with Facial Acupuncture, micro needling can complement the benefits of acupuncture by further stimulating collagen production and promoting skin rejuvenation. The combination of micro needling and acupuncture can enhance the overall results, providing a synergistic effect. Acupuncture targets the body's energy flow and balance, while micro needling works on a cellular level to improve the skin's structure and appearance. Together, they can address both the internal and external aspects of facial health and rejuvenation.
