Microneedling

Five Years Younger Facial Spa is happy to introduce Microneedling collagen induction therapy.

Treatment can be considered a more effective way to do a facial treatment with magical results. “You’re building collagen and thickening the skin, so instead of looking good for a few days after your traditional facial, your skin is smooth and radiant for much longer,” instead of using injectable fillers to repair an indented area, the process kick-starts your body’s own natural collagen production to heal the skin on its own. This is the most incredible resurfacing skin smoothing device, I have ever come across with instant results. My clients are amazed what Microneeding can do on a first time service.

 

Who Should Do It?
It’s great for helping rough skin texture, acne scarring, reduce pore size and because it doesn’t use heat and is totally mechanical, it’s safe for all skin colors and types. “The treatment is wonderful for smoothing out the skin and filling in acne scars, but if you have those small bumps from clogged pores, it can help to clear all of that up as well.” Get ready to rejuvenate skin with improvements of skin tone and texture.

 

What Is It?
Microneedling is a treatment that involves using a tool with 12 super-tiny needles in the very tip, which can be adjusted by your professional between 0.25-0.5 millimeters is the smallest amount, which penetrates the stratum cornea, or the superficial layer of skin,” “You can think of microneedling as collagen induction—or collagen induction therapy, which is another name for it—and the treatment creates micro-punctures from the needles in your skin. Your body treats a small wound the same way as a large wound, and sends fibroblasts to create more collagen in the affected area. We are basically tricking your skin into thinking it has been wounded, but as a result, we’re thickening the skin and improving the texture with this procedure.

 

Does It Hurt?
No, I use a Soft Touch approach 0.25-0.5 to ensure perfect healing process. Afterwards you can expect the skin to be a little pink, and at the very worst, a few tiny punctate scabs that fade in a few days.

How Often Can I Get It Done?
Dramatic acne scarring should plan to do one session per month for 4 to 6 months, after that, you can come in once a year for a touch-up whenever you feel like you need to give your skin a reboot.
