Treatment: Micro-needling

Microneedling is a skin treatment that utilizes fine needles to create tiny channels in the skin. This aids in the production of collagen and elastin, leading to improved texture, firmness, and overall evenness in skin tone. It is commonly used on the face and body to reduce the appearance of scars, wrinkles, stretch marks, hyperpigmentation, and enlarged pores.

Safety concerns

Microneedling is a procedure that involves minimal invasiveness and is generally safe for those in sound health. However, individuals using specific acne medications or women who are pregnant should not undergo this procedure. Common side effects post-treatment include slight redness, swelling, and irritation for a few days; therefore, it is important to only use professional products that are recommended by a skincare provider.
