Until recently Microneedling was fairly pricey and required you to visit a doctor; however Micro-Needling has now become a familiar practice in most normal house holds. The skin roller is a simple device with lots of gama sterilized tiny needles which, {when rolled over the skin}, gently part 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

Collagen and elastin are the main elements in the occurance of stretch marks, the primary cause of the development of skin problems such as stretch marks and wrinkles is a lack of collagen and elastin in the skin, when this is replaced the skin returns to its original smooth and firm state. When an injury occurs, such as a puncture, the skin heals itself enough to stay healthy; but unfortunately the skin doesnâ€™t heal to a satisfactory level.

For scarring, striae and Wrinkles to be removed, it is essential for the skin to have reason to begin healing itself producing more collagen and elastin, microneedling achieves this by carefully seperating the pores of the epidermis giving the impression of the skin being damaged and needing to be repaired. regular Microneedling will ensure your skin continues to heal itself until it is completely healed.

Is Skin Needling the best option?

In compasison to other therapies, Skin Needling is much more cost effective and better then therapies such as only using creams because the skin takes in only a tiny percentage of creams applied, however when applied within an hour of using the skin roller the creams are absorbed a lot better as the pores are open.

Microneedling can be used to reduce an array of skin conditions; Stretch marks, Cellulite, Wrinkles, pitted skin, acne scars, surgery scars, scars, crowâ€™s feet etc
