Walk down any skincare aisle and you’re bound to see products boasting about the benefits of collagen. Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies, and it’s responsible for giving our skin a plump, youthful appearance. Unfortunately, as we age, our bodies produce less and less collagen, leading to wrinkles, fine lines, and other telltale signs of aging.
Enter microneedling. Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses tiny needles to create microscopic holes in the skin. This may sound daunting, but the needles are tiny—so small that they can only be seen with a microscope. Your skin is very good at healing itself, and creating these tiny wounds triggers the body’s natural healing response. The body produces proteins to heal the wounds, which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. As a result, the skin becomes firmer and smoother. In other words, microneedling can help turn back the hands of time by making your skin look and feel younger.
What Microneedling Can Do For Your Skin
Microneedling stimulates an increase in collagen production that leads to a wide variety of improvements in your skin’s appearance. Clinical studies have shown that microneedling can improve the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, dark spots, and stretch marks. It can also improve your skin’s absorption of skincare products by up to 80%. This is because the tiny needles create channels in the skin that allow skincare products to penetrate deeper into the tissues.
The Lookshop offers Scarlet SRF, Morpheus8 face and body, and SkinPen microneedling options, which all treat many skin issues and enhance your skin’s natural look and feel. With microneedling, you can target skin imperfections in as little as three treatments. This breakthrough in skin rejuvenation helps you achieve youthful and healthy-looking skin.
How Does Microneedling Work?
Microneedling is a procedure that uses a specialized device with or without radiofrequency. Small pins are pressed into the desired area of skin at a depth of 0.5 mm to 3 mm. Prior to treatment, the skin is numbed with a topical numbing agent to ensure a comfortable procedure.
Radiofrequency microneedling is a revolutionary development in solutions for the skin.. Releasing radiofrequency energy through tiny pins maximizes the effect of the procedure. These micro-wounds in the skin stimulate the body’s response of producing collagen and skin tissue for firmer, smoother, and more toned skin on the face, neck, chest, and many other parts of the body. Safe and effective for almost all skin types, you will start to notice results within 1-2 weeks after treatment and up to 3-6 months post-procedure based on our targeting and your skin goals.
We can use microneedling on most areas of the face and body; however, it is most commonly used on the face to improve conditions such as acne scars, wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin. At The Lookshop we customize our treatments to the patient’s individualized needs along with adding a post-treatment application of plant-based exosomes to enhance the results and minimize downtime.
