Microneedling

Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure where thin needles puncture the skin’s top layer to stimulate collagen and elastin production, promoting firmer and more even skin. While commonly used on the face, it can also treat aging or blemished skin on other body areas. Typically, three sessions are needed for optimal results, and it is most effective for thinning hair rather than regrowth.

Using Collagen Induction Therapy with microneedling enhances results by stimulating collagen and elastin production.
