Microneedling
Microneedling is a safe and very effective treatment where we use a device to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin; which stimulates the wound healing process. By creating these injuries our body responds by producing collagen, elastin and turning over new skin cells. Microneedling has the ability to treat a wide variety of skin concerns such as reducing acne scarring, pore size, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone, and the list goes on.
