Medical microneedling is a technique used specifically for percutaneous collagen induction therapy, which is an alternative method for treating wrinkles and scar tissue through the effective stimulation of collagen production from within the skin layers without the usual destruction of the skin’s epidermal barrier.

Medical microneedling works by creating microscopic holes in the skin that heal in just a few hours. These controlled micro-injuries instigate a series of changes, setting off the body’s natural healing response for the production of new collagen and elastin fibers from within the skin, resulting in tighter, smoother, and plumped up skin in the treated areas.

This process has two major benefits. It effectively stimulates your body’s natural healing process which in turn boosts collagen and elastin formation to plump, fill, firm, and tighten skin; as well as providing a clear channel for topical products of PRF to be absorbed more effectively through the top layer of skin.

• Fine lines and deep wrinkles around eyes, mouth, and forehead can be softened.
• Deep lines and crepe-like texture across the face can be firmed.
• Coarse, sun-damaged skin can be smoothed.
• Acne, burn, and surgical scars can be. improved
• Stretch marks can be minimized
• Pore size can be reduced

Despite all the benefits of using medical microneedling, it cannot be used for all patients and must be avoided by those with:

• Active skin infections
• Skin cancer
• Warts
• Anticoagulants in the blood
• Uncontrolled diabetes
• Hepatitis
• HIV
• History of keloid formation
