About
Microneedling is a powerful, minimally invasive treatment that triggers the skin’s natural healing process, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin.
The microneedling device makes tiny micro-injuries in the skin that trigger the body to produce collagen fibers and elastin. These fibers heal the wounds and provide a much-needed support system for aged and damaged skin.
This Treatment Address
Dr. Baker recommends microneedling for:
- Fine lines
- Superficial scars, such as those caused by acne
- Stretch marks
- Irregular pigmentation
- Lax skin
- Large pores
- Age spots and brown spots
- Rough texture
Benefits
By creating tiny micro-injuries in the skin’s surface, microneedling stimulates collagen and elastin production, which are essential for maintaining youthful, healthy skin.
Here are some more advantages you can enjoy with microneedling:
- Boosts collagen production, which promotes the skin’s natural repair process for firmer, more resilient skin
- Improves skin texture and tone to help smooth out uneven texture, diminish the appearance of scars, and even out skin tone
- Reduces the appearance of wrinkles and minimizes the look of fine lines and wrinkles, making skin appear younger and more refreshed
- Minimally invasive with little downtime for significant results without the need for more invasive procedures, allowing you to return to your daily routine quickly
- Enhances absorption of skincare products via the micro-channels created during microneedling to improve the skin’s ability to absorb serums and other topical treatments
Candidates
Microneedling is a good option for most skin types that have superficial flaws. The procedure can be performed on women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
These women often opt for microneedling stretch marks in combination with their facial rejuvenation treatments.
