Microneedling: An ideal treatment for reducing scars and wrinkles
Let’s start by being honest: we all want perfect, hydrated skin, free of blemishes and wrinkles. After all, the best makeup is healthy, beautiful skin. But life doesn’t always make it easy: over the years, “battle scars” can appear, affecting our self-esteem and confidence. That’s why, on this blog , we always strive to provide recommendations and information so you can choose the beauty products and treatments that best suit your skin’s needs. And today we’ll talk about Microneedling with Dermapen , a minimally invasive way to improve skin quality, stimulate collagen production, and allow active ingredients to penetrate much more deeply. Furthermore, the products introduced into the skin through microneedling can be tailored to individual needs, addressing each specific problem at its root. With Dermapen, the skin increases its absorption of the products applied simultaneously, leading to better results. Simply put, this technique uses the skin’s natural healing process and is virtually painless.
How is Microneedling applied?
After cleansing and preparing the skin, multiple micro-punctures are performed (0.5 to 2.5 mm deep, depending on the area of skin being treated). However, to achieve optimal results, 3 to 5 sessions are usually necessary, with intervals of 7 to 15 days between them. After the treatment, the skin may experience slight redness and local swelling; both of these will disappear within 12 to 24 hours. A small bruise may also appear, which will disappear within 24 to 72 hours.
Benefits of Microneedling for treating the skin
In this way, thanks to the effect that microneedling has on the skin, great results are achieved such as:
- Improves skin texture, reduces the appearance of pores.
- It reduces fine and moderate wrinkles by stimulating collagen and elastin production. You’ll look much younger!
- It reduces scarring from acne, chickenpox, etc.
- It activates the skin’s natural regeneration processes.
In general terms, the micro-lesions produced by microneedles induce a controlled healing process, achieving skin renewal without an open wound. Furthermore, the micro-punctures produce micro-bleeding, which mobilizes platelets and releases growth factors that complement the healing action.
Care after Microneedling treatment
- Avoid direct sun exposure.
- Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures.
- Do not get your skin wet for 2 hours after the session.
