Microneedling
What is Micro needling?
Micro needling is an aesthetic procedure that stimulates collagen production. It is performed with a handheld device that has fine needles on its tip. The needles create multiple, tiny wounds on the surface of the skin that boosts collagen production by triggering the body’s ability to repair and regrow the skin cells after the micro-damage. During the treatment, the scar tissue gets broken down and the skin becomes smooth and glowing.
