How it works is the needles penetrate at various lengths that your Esthetician will choose suiting your skin concerns. The needles penetrate the epidermis layer of your skin, keeping intact making micro injuries into the dermis layer of your skin where lays the collagen and elastin. The needles poke the collagen stimulating it to produce new and healthier collagen and elastin in your skin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How do you know if you are a candidate for micro needling? Here are skin concerns that Micro needling helps improve: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Can be performed on all Fitz Patrick skin types,\nit is blind to color. <\/li><li>It\u2019s great for filling in fine lines and\nwrinkles <\/li><li>Acne scarring<\/li><li>Scarring <\/li><li>Hyperpigmentation<\/li><li>Mending together stretch marks <\/li><li>Evening out skin tone <\/li><li>&nbsp;Improving\nskin texture <\/li><li>&nbsp;Minimizing\nenlarged pores <\/li><li>Maintain beautiful, healthy &nbsp;skin <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What to expect the Micro needling treatment to be like? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>The Esthetician will start by addressing your\nskin concerns and what you are hoping to achieve with Micro needling. <\/li><li>Than your Esthetician will cleanse your skin and\napply a topical numbing cream, 5% lidocane. <\/li><li>After about 20 to 25 minutes the numbing cream\nwill be removed and your skin will be cleansed again. <\/li><li>Before starting the Micro needling the\nEsthetician will apply a human growth factor serum to your skin. <\/li><li>A human growth factor is something that our bodies\nnaturally produces and choose specifically to benefit your skin. The human\ngrowth factor gives the needles some slip to glide over your skin easily but is\nalso needled in your skin to help give it an instant boost of hydration,\nplumpness, a tightening effect also aid in healing your skin.<\/li><li>Your esthetician will make a \u201chashtag\u201d motion\nall of the skin penetrating the needles and the human growth factors into the\nskin. <\/li><li>&nbsp;After treating\nthe treatment area the Esthetician will apply more human growth factor serum to\nyour skin and also sunscreen.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Thinking of 12 needles poking your skin you\u2019re probably\nthinking, ouch! No way. The topical numbing cream the Esthetician applied\nbefore we start treatment will keep you numb throughout your entire treatment\nmaking it almost painless, but very tolerable. The pen also has a vibration\neffect, and it\u2019s said \u201capply vibration to the skin first it takes the pain\naway.\u201d The \u201cspiciest\u201d areas to be treated are the forehead, lip and chin area,\nI always treat those areas first knowing you are the numbest at the very\nbeginning of your treatment.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Post treatment instructions: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>You may have redness to your skin that will last\nup to 24 hours<\/li><li>For the next 24 hours post treatment your skin\nis soaking in everything through the microscopic injuries we have caused to\nyour skin.<\/li><li>&nbsp;We\nrecommend you stay away from occlusive creams and stick to serums. <\/li><li>Be very complaint with your sunscreen so you are\nnot reversing the work we have just done. <\/li><li>Try to avoid makeup as best you can for the next\n24 hours but if needed, wear mineral makeup. <\/li><li>Your skin just received a manual exfoliation so\nit may feel dry and tight sort of like a sunburn feeling for the next couple of\ndays, keep it hydrated.<\/li><li>All in all just be gentle with your skin. <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Products to use post treatment: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Sente Daily Soothing Cleanser <\/li><li>SkinMedica TNS Recovery Complex <\/li><li>SkinMedica HA5 <\/li><li>Sente Dermal Repair <\/li><li>PCA Weightless Protection <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf you loved you micro needling experience and\nare excited to see what results it has to offer you, we recommend you to get a\nseries of 4 treatments, coming in every 4 to 6 weeks to get your optimal\nresults.
