Microneedling uses a hand roller needle called a derma roller, or a more sophisticated automated device to create multiple small skin lesions.
Microneedling may help with issues like:
- Acne
- Hair loss (also called alopecia)
- Dark spots or patches on your skin (hyperpigmentation)
- Large pores
- Reduced skin elasticity
- Scars
- Stretch marks
- Sun damage
- Fine lines and wrinkles
What is the procedure like?
- The procedure usually takes 10-20 minutes, depending on how big the area is. Most people need 4-6 treatments to see a difference.
Post-treatment care tips
- Make sure you wash your skin and keep it clean.
- Ensure the pillowcase you use is fresh and clean.
- Avoid dust and pets near your skin.
- Two days after the treatment, use plenty of moisturizers and a simple sunscreen
