Are you looking to get gorgeous skin without a painful procedure or much downtime? If so, you may want to consider Oak Dermatology’s Microneedling treatments. Microneedling is a great way to get glowing skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines fast. Microneedling treatments, both safe and minimally invasive, can offer a wide array of benefits for your skin.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a form of skin rejuvenation that helps your body generate new skin cells. This procedure uses multiple small, sterile needles to prick the skin. The skin punctures create trauma, prompting a deeper layer of the skin, the dermis, to rebuild. This method also increases the production of collagen.
What is Collagen?
Collagen is a protein that gives skin its structure. Acne scarring, stretch marks, and aging skin all exhibit damaged or irregular collagen. By boosting the skin’s collagen production, Microneedling can improve texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and increase skin’s firmness and elasticity.
Microneedling Benefits
You may benefit from Microneedling treatments if you suffer from any of the following skin conditions:
- Acne or Acne Scarring
- Enlarged Pores
- Fine Lines or Wrinkles
How Often Will I Need Microneedling Treatments?
Microneedling may require multiple treatments over a period of several months. The best way to figure out the right treatment plan for you is to schedule an appointment with one of our licensed medical estheticians for a cosmetic consultation.
Are there any possible risks with Microneedling Treatments?
Possible risks or temporary side effects that can occur after Microneedling Treatments include:
