Microneedling is a quick, non-surgical treatment aimed at stimulating the body’s own collagen production. The micro-injuries trigger a natural process of repair, increasing the production of collagen and elastin, and visibly improving a wide range of skin concerns. By penetrating the skin's surface using those revolutionary 16 tiny needles, a healing response is initiated to create both structural and cosmetic improvements.
The process for collagen production begins five days following each treatment and continues slowly over time, reaching its peak about twelve weeks post-treatment.*
At Keraderm Medispa, we use the Dermapen 4, which glides over the skin creating millions of fine, vertical fractional channels up to 104% faster than other microneedling pens. These channels can carry up to 80% more topical nutrients deeper into the skin.
Microneedling can also be combined with other treatments, such as a chemical peel (as a preparation treatment), or following one of our combined treatments, such as PRP or Exosomes.
