MICRO NEEDLING BELFAST / COLLAGEN INDUCTION THERAPY
Also known as the Gold Facial or Vampire Facial!
Micro Needling is all the rage in skin care and for good reason. The process involves sweeping a pen affixed with mini needles to create tiny wounds. These wounds are miniscule and only skin-deep, but your body responds with fight or flight alarm, sending in healing factors of extra oxygenated blood, loaded with hormones and nutrients that boost skin strength, radiance, and health.
No one wants to look older than they are. But premature aging that represents as fine lines and wrinkles does just that.
How Does Micro needling Work
Micro needling for Lines and wrinkles
The tiny injuries from a micro needling session boost collagen and elastin production to fight lines and wrinkles.
Collagen and elastin are compounds in your skin that add structure and strength, lending a youthful quality. The wound-healing mechanisms also stimulate your body to produce new skin cells, making lines less apparent.
Benefits
Micro needling for Acne/Scars/Sun Damage
Super effective in addressing acne and other scars on the skin. Cannot be used on Keloid scars. Effective in reducing the appearance of sun damage, particularly hyperpigmentation and age spots. The stimulation of new collagen and skin cells can reinvigorate your look and even out your skin tone.
Micro needling for Anti-Aging
As we age, skin loses its elasticity, so it appears lax. Aging skin may also look dull and lack a lustrous glow.
Results
The build up of collagen stimulated from the response of the tiny wounds can improve structure to fight sagging. Following a session, you experience a radiant, fresh glow.
Micro Needling makes your skin glow after just one treatment and continues to boost the appearance of your complexion for months afterwards. The appearance quality and texture of the skin will be improved, minimizing wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, open pores and rosacea.
What can I expect after Micro needling?
Most people need a course of 3 treatments, usually about 3 weeks to 8 weeks apart. So, it may take 3 months to 6 months to see full results. Following your course, you might need the procedure once a year for maintenance.
In the days after Micro needling treatment, you might notice that your skin burns or feels tight. Some people also have dry, flaking skin that improves with moisturizer.
