Micro-Needling
Sat ,28/11/2009Until recently Micro Needling was rather expensive and required frequent trips to see a specialist; however Micro-Needling has now become a frequent aspect of daily life in many average house holds. The Derma Roller is a simple device with lots of gama sterilized microscopic needles which, as they are rolled over the epidermis, gently separate the pores of the epidermis and set off the healing process increasing the production of collagen and elastin.
Collagen is essential for skin to heal to a cosmetic level
Collagen and elastin are the main aspects in the compilation of stretch marks, the primary cause of the development of skin conditions including stretch marks and scarring is there is a lack of collagen and elastin in the skin, when this is replaced the skin returns to its original state. When an injury occurs, such as a puncture, the skin repairs itself enough to stay healthy; however the skin doesn’t heal to a satisfactory level.
For scarring, striae and facial wrinkles to be removed, the skin needs to think that there is reason to begin healing and produce more collagen and elastin, using a Derma roller achieves this by opening the pores of the top layer of skin giving the illusion of the skin being damaged and in need of repair. regular Micro-Needling will make sure that you skin heals itself to a cosmetic level.
Is Micro-Needling the best option?
In compasison to other therapies, Micro Needling is much economic and more effective then therapies such as just using creams because the skin absorbes only a small percentage of creams applied, however when applied within an hour of using the Derma-Roller the creams are absorbed much better as the pores are open.
Skin Needling is used to treat a range of skin conditions; Stretch marks, Cellulite, Wrinkles, pitted skin, acne scars, surgery scars, scars, crow’s feet etc
