🌸 Facial Micro-Needling: Your Path to Radiant, Renewed Skin

Facial micro-needling—also known as collagen induction therapy—is a minimally invasive treatment that can transform your skin’s texture, appearance, and tone, addressing a broad range of concerns:

What Micro-Needling Treats

• Wrinkles & fine lines
• Acne, chicken pox & surgical scars
• Sun damage & aging skin
• Laugh lines & rough texture
• Stretch marks

By creating tiny, controlled micro-injuries, micro-needling stimulates collagen and elastin production, promoting your body’s natural healing for smoother, more radiant skin.

How It Works

A licensed practitioner uses a sterile microneedling device (pen or roller) to make micro-channels in the skin. These micro-injuries:

1. Trigger collagen and elastin formation
2. Enhance absorption of topicals (vitamin C, peptides)
3. Stimulate growth factors for hair and skin renewal

Studies show that 3–6 sessions spaced every 4–8 weeks can:

• Reduce fine lines and wrinkles
• Fade acne, chicken pox, surgical, and stretch mark scars
• Improve texture and tone, including rough or sun-damaged skin
