Microneedling, also called collagen induction therapy, has become increasingly widespread among people who want to improve the look of their skin without invasive treatments. The practice of microneedling dates back to the mid-1990s, but it has expanded significantly in recent years, thanks to the introduction of new technologies and its exploding trendiness on social media.
What Is Microneedling?
Essentially, microneedling is the insertion of very fine, short needles into the surface of the skin to create hundreds of microscopic punctures, which kick the skin’s natural healing process into high gear to improve skin texture, reduce the size of pores and minimize the appearance of wrinkles and scars.
The micro-injuries created during microneedling result in a higher cell turnover and increased collagen and elastin production, which both reverse and prevent the signs of aging. Because of the treatment’s ability to activate the generation of new skin cells, just a few sessions of microneedling will noticeably reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
The latest microneedling technology uses radiofrequency (RF) to help stimulate collagen in the skin. The RF emitted from the needles stimulates your body’s natural collagen production by penetrating even more deeply into the skin, which causes it to contract. RF microneedling has become an enormously popular alternative to injectable treatments for creating youthful skin.
Benefits of RF Microneedling
RF microneedling is a cutting-edge technique that results in an immediately improved appearance. Here are some of the reasons people are relying on microneedling to maintain youthful-looking skin.
- Tightens skin – The older you are, the less collagen and elastin your body produces. RF microneedling boosts collagen in the body, which gives the skin a tighter, more youthful appearance. Tighter skin also helps reduce lines and wrinkles and helps you look naturally rejuvenated.
- Versatile – RF microneedling is safe and effective for all skin types and tones, and isn’t just exclusive for your face and neck – it can be used on any part of your body where you want the benefits of non-surgical firming, toning and tightening.
- Reduces lines and wrinkles – People who are struggling with unwanted lines and wrinkles that make them look older are often delighted by the effects of RF microneedling. It is both quicker and more affordable than many other types of cosmetic treatment, and leads to a noticeably younger appearance immediately.
- Turns back the clock on sun-damaged skin – Collagen’s benefits to your skin go beyond merely reducing wrinkles. By stimulating collagen growth with microneedling, you can also reverse years of sun damage, including discoloration and sun spots.
- Minimizes scarring – RF microneedling is also the most effective way to treat different types of scarring, especially acne scars. Many people find RF microneedling targets the skin on a deeper level and repairs it in a way that is far superior to other treatments.
- No downtime – Because RF microneedling is minimally invasive, you won’t need to take any time away from your daily activities to recover. In fact, many of our patients even get the procedure on their lunch hour and are able to return to work immediately afterward.
- Makes your beauty products more effective – One of microneedling’s biggest benefits is that it greatly improves your skin’s ability to absorb topical treatments such as creams, lotions and serums more efficiently, allowing you to obtain the full benefits. The reason is that microneedling creates thousands of invisible holes that act like tiny channels, allowing skin care products to penetrate more deeply into your skin.
