While most of us are witnessing sudden changes in our skin lately, we wonder what can be done to get back our lost glow. Instead of trying on a lot of chemicals for glow, experts have revealed that skin micro-needling can be an option we all must check out. This is a derma-roller procedure that involves using small needles to prick the skin which needs the treatment. Through this, new collagen and skin tissues get produced and that gives you smoother and firmer skin. With us still getting to know the process better, here are some of the FAQs answered that will help you go forward with it.
Is micro-needling a good option to treat acne scars?
Microneedling helps individuals to revive their beauty through natural healing responses. The micro-injuries caused on the skin helps new and better tissue development and even cases of acute acne and scars can be cured.
Can youthful skin be achieved with this?
Studies have revealed that there have been positive changes in individuals who have undergone the treatment. 4 micro-needling sessions a month apart from each other has reported a 400% increase in collagen and elastin production and deposition. All of these happened within 6 months. As a result of this, the skin aging was slowed and skin texture and suppleness was rejuvenated. With this treatment, people have observed occurrences of age reversal, reduction in wrinkles, and fine lines.
What skin conditions can micro-needling treat?
Besides improving the skin texture, this treatment is also known to cure issues like hyperpigmentation, old acne, sun damage, or even age spots. The number of treatments depends on the skin condition you are currently in. If the cases are more severe, Intense Pulse Light (IPL) Photofacial treatment is combined with it. Not only face, but this treatment can cure skin issues on other parts of the body as well.
Is the treatment painful?
You won’t feel the pain while you are treated. The areas will be numbed before the needles are pricked. Some individuals fall asleep during the process. If you are not getting numbed properly, you will be undergoing multiple numbing every 15 minutes.
How many treatments are needed?
