WHAT IS SKIN NEEDLING?
Skin Needling is for improving wrinkles and scars it has been popular in other countries and utilized by technicians in the beauty field and even plastic surgeons in the United States, Europe, Canada an South Africa.

Skin needling is based on the old technique of tattooing with out the pigments. The makeup artist or tattoo expert uses the machine on the target areas as if he or she would be doing a tattoo. Needling has some of the same benefits as laser treatments and some d

ermabrasion treatments.
The needling of the skin creates tiny trauma that initiate a natural process of healing which releases natural growth factors and also stimulate the production of collagen. The new collagen fills depressed scars and wrinkles from the bottom up lifting the depression so they are level with the surrounding skin.

Needling is a sophisticated technique which promotes the body's natural production of collagen and melacantis (pigment producing cells).

This process smoothes out scars, wrinkles and can even the tone of some skin discolorations. This non-evasive procedure is long lasting and all natural.

Skin Needling is also known as Needle Abrasion. It has similar results to Laser, Chemical Peels and other Dermabrasion treatments but with less damage to the epidermis. This gives better long-term results as more healthy skin and blood vessels are left intact to promote healing and deposit collagen. Frequent ongoing treatments are still possible, unlike other methods of resurfacing which eventually thin and age the skin due to the destruction of whole layers of epidermis.

Skin Needling creates minimal dermal damage without the removal of the healthy epidermis, which happens with other resurfacing techniques.

Because the epidermis is left intact, the healing period is rapid. The skin DOES NOT experience sun sensitivity, skin color loss, hyper-pigmentation or thinning of the skin. Standard care and cleanliness are all that is required during healing.

Skin Needling can treat sensitive areas that other treatments have to avoid, such as lower eyelids and neck and the back of hands. It can also improve skin texture and softens the fibrous bands to give more flexibility in movement and a more natural blended appearance.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Needling is accomplished through microscopic punctures made to the top layer of the epidermis. This stimulates the body’s natural wound healing by breaking up old collagen strands to produce natural collagen and melanocytes, making smoother skin. Needling tends to simulate the effects of those from laser resurfacing, but without the damage to the epidermis.

HOW LONG DOES IT LAST? Some clients see immediate results from needling, others notice improvement gradually over an 8 week period. Individual results vary as each body’s regeneration will vary. Most clients require multiple sessions to achieve desired results that generally last years.

IS IT SAFE? Needling is safe with stringent cross-contamination standards, and because nothing is injected, allergic reactions and side-effects are non-existent. Needling is a minimally invasive procedure. With rapid healing and simple aftercare, needling is an attractive solution for scars and wrinkles.

SMOOTHEN WRINKLES ON THE FACE Fine, medium, or heavy wrinkles respond well to needling. Natural collagen is produced to fill lines for more smooth skin. The results are very similar to those from lasers. Needling may not completely erase lines, but clients report being told their skin looks years younger.

SCARS FROM ACNE & INJURIESThe pitted scars left from acne, chicken pox, and other injuries can be plumped, giving the skin a more even, smoother texture. Scars from surgery can also benefit from needling. The skin color can be evened out so the differences in tone are more subtle. Works for face and body.

STRETCH MARKS & WHITE SCARS Needling can also activate the production of melanocytes to restore a more even, natural skin tone to white or light scars. This is good for scars that are lighter from injuries, surgeries, and stretch mark. Works on most skin types. UV exposure during healing can improve results.

SCAR RELAXING: Scar tissue that is tight or impairs movement can be softened and relaxed to increase flexibility and movement. Primarily used for burn survivors.
