Unlock Your Skin's Potential
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive technique that harnesses your body’s natural healing factors to produce new collagen and elastin for optimal skin health and appearance. Using a pen-shaped device with fine, tiny needles, microscopic injuries are created in the epidermis and dermis. These small wounds (microchannels) stimulate your skin’s natural defense, leading to quick healing and vibrant, glowing skin over time.
At Evolving and Emerging U, we utilize the Collagen PIN to penetrate the skin layers and stimulate collagen production, effectively reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and pigmentation. Microneedling is an excellent alternative to other anti-aging procedures like injections and surgery, with few side effects and minimal downtime.
It can be used all over the body, not just on the face. If you have age spots on your décolletage, stretch marks on your stomach, or drooping skin on your arms, it’s no problem for microneedling.
Microneedling is ideal for those with acne scars, sun damage, fine lines or wrinkles, and other skin imperfections such as: uneven skin tone, rough skin texture, large pores and under eye dark circles or puffiness
Preparation for microneedling involves avoiding retinoid treatments and treatments for auto-immune diseases for 24 hours prior to your treatment as well as direct sun exposure for that time. The other step to prepare for microneedling is to wash your face and arrive for your treatment with no makeup.
Prior to the procedure, a numbing cream is applied to minimize or eliminate any discomfort. Then the numbing cream is wiped off after 30 minutes, then a hydrating gel is applied to the face before the treatment to reduce any potential pain or discomfort. Microneedling is not generally painful, although it may involve some discomfort. Most patients describe the sensation as that of having light sandpaper rubbed across their face.
Microneedling itself takes about 15-30 minutes to complete. If you count the skin preparation and post-treatment process, the entire treatment may take up to 60-90 minutes.
The downtime following microneedling is little to no downtime. Your skin will appear slightly pink to red like a mild sunburn for about 72 hours. It is recommended to stay out of the sun and use a high SPF sunblock. You can resume your daily activities immediately.
Some people will see dramatic results after a single treatment, while others may require multiple sessions to see optimal results. On average, you will need 2-3 treatments, every four weeks, although this can vary depending on individual skin condition.
