Micro-needling refers to punctures made briefly in the skin with tiny micro needles.
Micro-needling refers to punctures made briefly in the skin with tiny micro needles. The micro pores that are formed in this process close back up within a few minutes. The clinical procedure of micro needling is called Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT).
The medical dermaroller treats stretch marks and scars from ACNE. It can be used to fill in wrinkles and scars and improve poor circulation in scars-improving their pale colouring. Skin becomes tighter and smoother, pigment disorders like Melasma (Hyper Pigmentation) and age spots can be reduced (visibly).
The medical dermaroller’s tiny micro-needles create very small perforations in the skin. The skin registers these perforations as an injury which triggers growth agents: Type III Collagen Fibres and Elastin Fibres.
The advantages in comparison to ‘ablative’ treatments is obvious: unlike lasers, dermabrasion or skin peels which can make the skin thinner and thus weaken its protective function. Dermaroller Treatments stimulate the building of new layers of tissue and is carried out after the application of an anaesthetic cream which is used to minimise discomfort.
