What is Micro Needling?

Being pricked by needles may sound strange, but that’s the concept behind this cosmetic process. Micro needling is a method that uses a device with very thin, sharp needle tips to make punctures on the skin. These micro-injuries don’t leave scars. However, this induces collagen (the elastic fibers that make skin tight, youthful, and smooth) production as the skin rejuvenates the small pricks, and we call this method’ Dermal remodeling’.

Three to five bi-monthly treatments per skin condition are recommended to get the desired results. Through a series of sessions, micro needling can increase elastic fibers and make the epidermis (outer layer of skin) tauter and thicker, which naturally thins with age.

How is the Treatment of Micro Needling Performed?

The idea of needles piercing your face can bring an ouch factor by itself. But you don’t need to worry. The treatment begins by cleansing your face. Then topical numbing cream is gently applied. Once that takes a good 20 minutes to show its effects. Your dermatologist will use a serum that promotes skin repair and healing.

A micro needling pen is then pressed back and forth all over your face. At this point, the main goal is to needle in the serum. Once the procedure is completed, another layer of serum is applied, and a mask helps seal everything in. Expect to at least spend an hour or two from start to finish.

You might see your skin red and patched after the treatment, but it is for a short duration. A refreshing and hydrating skin is coming your way!

What Conditions can be Healed through the Magic of Micro Needling?

You are wrong if you think that micro needling is just exclusive to the face. Micro needling is used to improve the appearance for:

  • Acne scars
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Large skin pores

On the body, micro needling can be used for similar benefits. The most popular treatment areas are the front and back of the thighs, buttocks, and abdomen. As it is most commonly employed to treat:

  • Scarring
  • Stretch marks
  • Uneven skin tones
  • Sun damage

The depths of needles range from 0.25 millimeters to 2.5 millimeters in professional micro needling. The depth depends upon the thickness of the targeted area. Body parts require deeper penetration than the face.

Are you Confused about being the Right Candidate for the Treatment?

Micro-needling is considered one of the safest compared to laser and other rejuvenation treatments. It is suitable for all skin types and tones because it doesn’t damage the epidermis. While getting treated by the dermatologist, it is safe to get it done on the fragile body parts such as the neck, back of your hands, and around the eyes.

But there are a few things that might cause hindrance. The best candidate for collagen induction therapy is:

  • Anyone who hasn’t used Isotretinoin (Accutane) in the past three months.
  • Doesn’t have any open wounds, abrasions, or cuts on the skin.
  • One who hasn’t had skin irradiation treatment in the past 12 months
  • Anyone who is not suffering from any intense skin infection.
  • The best candidate is also one who is neither pregnant nor nursing
  • Anyone who doesn’t have Herpes simplex and does not have a history of poor wound healing.

Individuals using blood thinning medicines and diabetes are recommended to avoid this process. They have low healing capability and a risk of blood loss.

What to Expect after Micro Needling Treatment?

The temporary side effects of the process include redness, swelling, and skin flaking. This lasts only for a day or two. Most people return to their normal skincare and makeup-wearing routine the following day. However, it is advised to use sunscreen or avoid going outdoors in intense daylight.

The best part about this process is that it has no downtime. The results will be visible right after the treatment, and as soon as collagen production flourishes, you will feel fresher. It makes your skin look plump and radiant for at least six months. The dermatologist may advise you for further sessions.

Can you do Micro Needling at Home?

You can find the tools for micro needling ranging from 100$ to 200$. They work manually and don’t serve the purpose of skin remodeling. It is also not recommended by dermatologists as they cannot penetrate deeply, and due to lack of sterilization, it may cause skin infections.

You should consult good dermatologists near you. They will use the tool depth appropriately per your needs– shorter depth ones for under the eyes, nose, and foreheads and the longer depth needles for cheeks, neck, and other body parts.
