What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a simple and non-invasive procedure that uses tiny needles to penetrate the skin and create micro-wounds for the body to develop and stimulate collagen and elastin. 

Microneedling treatment is a great and simple way to allow the body to naturally heal and allow the body to get rid of any skin deformities. Collagen helps the body add volume to the skin and elastin helps the skin generate tissue and proteins needed to rebuild the skin. Usually, there is a lot of blood flow in the area of a wound to heal, in this case, micro-needling creates tiny wounds for the body to send aid and repair to its original state and better than the current deformities that are formed. These deformities can include wrinkles, scarring, acne, and stretch marks.
