What Are The Benefits Of Skin Needling?

Skin needling works by stimulating your skin to create more collagen. Collagen is an essential element of skin elasticity and the decrease in the production of collagen as you get older is the reason why you start to get fine lines, wrinkles and your skin starts to sag. The needling allows your skin to not only start to produce more collagen but it allows any products that you apply to be more effective as they can sink deeper into your face for optimum results.


Benefits Of Skin Needling

There are many benefits to skin needling or micro-needling. Because it essentially breaks down your cells to encourage regeneration, you will notice a difference in your skin as it looks tighter, rejuvenated and appears to be more youthful-looking. While you can get it to reduce wrinkles, fine lines and even stretch marks, skin needling also works really well on scars. Whether you have acne scarring or skin trauma that has resulted in keloid or surgical scars, it’s possible that skin needling can improve the appearance of your skin, making it look much more smooth and even out hyperpigmentation that might have occurred during the scarring.

What can you expect

Most people don’t feel pain when they skin needling and pain can be a huge factor that deters people from getting this treatment. However, depending on the clinic you go to, there can be topical numbing agents that can be applied to reduce any discomfort or stinging felt throughout the needling. It’s important to let your beautician or technician know if you are feeling uncomfortable or if you’d like them to stop. There is little to no downtime when it comes to skin needling. It is important to keep out of the sun and don’t apply any peels as your skin would be sensitive and you need to ensure it heals properly. Some people experience a little bit of skin shedding, which is normal and a sign of your skin regenerating.
