Microneedling

Microneedling increases the production of collagen and other healing factors by causing cotrolled trauma to the skin. Collagen is an essential protein that helps keep the skin looking youthful, with a firm, smooth, brighter and stretchy texture. 

Ageing causes the decline of collagen in the skin, contributing to wrinkles and other signs of ageing. Skin can also lose collagen due to injuries, such as acne scarring, stretch marks, or other scars.

It is important to realise that microneedling is not a quick fix, as it involves the growth of new skin. It can take several months for a person to see the full results of the procedure.

It’s also used in certain anti-aging procedures, such as anti wrinkle, pigmentation and sun spots.

The technique involves using multiple tiny, sterile needles to puncture the skin and cause controlled physical trauma. This controlled trauma prompts the derma, a deeper layer of skin, to rebuild.

Microneedling at Laurie K Aesthetics is far more effective than at-home rollers. Laurie uses devices made by scientists for professionals following high quality training, achieving optimum treatment results

Treatment time:

You may need at least 3-4 procedures as an initial booster over approximately 12 weeks for the best results, and then a maintenance of 1 treatment session every 8-12 weeks.
