Microneedling is a treatment when you’re looking to address things like fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and stretch marks in Pembroke Pines. It encourages your body to boost its production of collagen. The result – firm and toned skin on your face and neck.
Did you know that this treatment has been a trend in aesthetic medicine? By stimulating the natural healing mechanisms of your skin, it diminishes the fine lines of expression as well as stimulates the collagen and elastin to give a refreshing firmness and hydration to your face.
This is a minimally invasive treatment and one of the most powerful ways to combat aging. It stimulates the growth of collagen and elastin, which is the key to healthy new skin, significantly reducing fine lines, spots, and wrinkles.
You might be wondering if microneedling is different from collagen induction therapy (CIT)? Microneedling is not different from CIT. Microneedling is also known as skin needling, collagen induction therapy (CIT), and percutaneous collagen induction (PCI).
Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), also known as microneedling, is a new and innovative skin facial rejuvenation procedure taking the beauty industry by storm. It is a minimally-invasive, non-surgical procedure for skin rejuvenation that involves the use of a microneedling device to reduce fine lines and deep wrinkles, treat hyperpigmentation, age spots, acne scars, stretch marks, hair loss and leads to improved volume, strength, resiliency, smoother texture and a brighter complexion to create healthier, more youthful-looking skin.
The results speak for themselves. And best of all, it is safe and effective for all skin types, nearly painless, fast, and with minimal downtime.
If you’re experiencing the problems that come with age, such as deep wrinkles, stretch marks, or acne scars, Pembroke Pines has Olam Med Spa’s microneedling as your long-lasting solution.
Let’s look at how it benefits the skin. This is the body’s largest and most essential organ; which is always changing. We continuously shed the outer layers of our skin and in turn, it gets replaced by inner cells that move up toward the surface.
Skin is composed of two primary layers: the epidermis and the dermis.
The epidermis is the outermost protective layer; the dermis, commonly known as the “true skin,” is the most important layer since it is home to the essential functioning components of the skin. This layer is primarily responsible for producing collagen and elastin.
Microneedling dramatically increases the amount of healthy collagen or elastin in the skin. During the process of microneedling, small micro-channels are created in the skin to activate the body’s natural healing response. This starts the regeneration cycle of the skin leading to the release of growth factors within the deeper layers of the skin. As a result, collagen and elastin production is accelerated to heal the wounds, which in turn build new layers of healthy skin cells.
Anybody who wants to improve their skin is an excellent candidate for this procedure. Microneedling is safe and effective for all skin colors and types.
No. A numbing agent is applied prior to the procedure for 15 to 20 minutes to relieve any potential discomfort.
Our sessions for microneedling in Pembroke Pines typically take about 45-60 minutes, including the numbing process, and depending on the size of the area needing treatment. In certain cases you will require multiple sessions, which are generally spaced 2-3 weeks apart, to achieve optimal results.
Microneedling is not different from CIT. Microneedling is also known as skin needling, collagen induction therapy (CIT), and percutaneous collagen induction (PCI).
In most cases, clients will experience post-procedure redness, which could last 2-3 days, depending on the skin condition and depth treated. After about 12-24 hours makeup can be worn that will easily cover any pinkness in the skin. You will have some dry flaking skin a couple days after the treatment.
At Olam Med Spa, we use the PiXel8-RF device for the microneedling process. The PiXel8-RF device is the latest technology for successful microneedling. It was designed to combat all signs of aging, with immediate results. It makes use of bi-polar RF energy with minimally invasive micro-needles to help tighten skin and encourage your skin’s natural collagen production. Heat is driven deep into the skin’s layers to remodel collagen and also improve the elastin cells’ ability to regenerate. What you are left with is smoother, firmer, and blemish-free skin.
The PiXel8-RF device is unique because your medical provider can adjust the amount of energy delivered to your skin. The micro-needles can be adjusted as well, anywhere from .5mm to 3.5mm. The micro-needles used will depend on your skin’s requirements. Our medical professionals will judge what will best suit your skin. In addition to all this, our device makes use of a special design for hemostasis and tissue coagulation that help in treating wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, and stretch marks in Pembroke Pines.
Microneedling can be the ideal choice of treatment if your skin has lost its firmness, and/or you notice the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It is also an effective form of therapy for open pores.
