Improve your skin with microneedling at our skin clinic
If you have been thinking about improving the appearance of your skin then you need to speak to us at Skin Studio UK and find out about the treatments and procedures that we have to offer at our skin clinic Surrey. We are here to help you understand your skin and find a treatment or a set of treatments that work for you. You can visit our website and find out what we have to offer. One of our most popular treatments at the skin clinic Surrey is microneedling. Microneedling is used as a cosmetic treatment and is a minimally invasive procedure that uses very tiny sterile needles to repeatedly puncture the skin over and over again with the goal of inducing collagen production. Microneedling is a controlled micro injury of the skin which initiates a wound healing process. As part of wound healing, our skin produces new collagen and this helps treat aesthetic imperfections of the skin, such as fine lines, wrinkles, scarring, irregular skin tone or texture. It can also be used to reduce the appearance of stretch marks.
Microneedling is also known as collagen induction therapy. There are different types of microneedling devices on the market, however the best method of microneedling is having it carried out at our skin clinic Surrey. Microneedling at home could cause infections or scarring, whilst professional microneedling treatment has a much lower risk and we will tailor the treatment to meet your individual needs.
How does microneedling work?
To make the procedure as comfortable as possible you will be given a topical numbing cream which means you will not feel the needles rather a slight vibrating sensation. The device itself is a little cylinder that has multiple needles projecting out from it, which is rolled up and down and across the skin to induce micro injuries in your target areas. We can change how fast the device is working, as well as how deep the needles are penetrating according to your individual requirements and the level of damage or ageing of the skin. Different areas of the face require different depths of needles and the treatment will be tailored accordingly to achieve best results.
We are also pleased to offer radiofrequency microneedling at our clinic. This combines radiofrequency energy with microneedling. This involves puncturing the skin with the microneedles, but also delivering heat at the same time for better results.
By improving collagen and elastin production, microneedling is highly efficient at improving the appearance of your skin. If your skin is dull or uneven then microneedling can help achieve a youthful glow. If you are troubled by enlarged pores then microneedling can help reduce the size of these pores for an even skin tone. It is also used for patients suffering from certain types of hyperpigmentation such as melasma and there are medical applications for microneedling too. For example it has been shown to improve certain types of hair loss. It is suitable for nearly all skin types and by undergoing a skin assessment or a consultation we can let you know how microneedling can help you achieve youthful, glowing skin very soon.
