Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that involves using a device called a microneedle roller or a microneedling pen to create tiny punctures in the skin. These punctures, also known as micro-injuries, stimulate the body’s natural healing response, leading to the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins that are essential for healthy, youthful-looking skin.
Microneedling is primarily used for improving the appearance of the skin and treating various skin concerns, including:
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Scars
- Hyperpigmentation
- Uneven skin texture
- Stretch marks
