What is Microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, it involves using a specialised device known as a microneedling pen. This pen is equipped with fine needles to create thousands of minuscule, controlled punctures in the skin’s top layer. This treatment triggers your body’s natural healing process, boosting cell renewal and increasing collagen and elastin production. This aids in effectively rejuvenating the skin from the inside out.
