What Can Microneedling Do for Your Skin?
Although microneedling has been around for many years, it has gained popularity in recent years due to the plethora of benefits it offers for the skin.
The process is minimally invasive and works by triggering collagen production, thereby helping rejuvenate and improve the skin. During the treatment, a device with tiny needles is used to puncture holes in the skin, which triggers the body’s natural healing process.
The Reduction of Sebum Production
Improving the Look of the Skin
For people considering microneedling treatment in Toronto, it is important to understand what the treatment can do for your skin. For patients who are looking to reverse or prevent the visible signs of aging such as wrinkles and fine lines, microneedling can help. By triggering the production of collagen and elastin, which improve skin elasticity, the look of wrinkles can be reduced. This results in a fresher, more rejuvenated appearance.
Many patients interested in microneedling treatments in Toronto want to reduce the appearance of blemishes and acne scars that give the skin an uneven tone. Because micro-needling breaks down old tissue and boosts collagen and elastic production, it is an effective treatment for reducing the appearance of scars as well. Furthermore, with its unique ability to stimulate collagen growth, sun damage and discoloration can also be reversed. Since collagen production is one of the most vital ways to improve the look of skin, micro needling can also often address hyperpigmentation issues that come with melasma.
In addition to treating acne scars, there has also been a link between microneedling treatment and reducing acne itself. Research indicates that microneedling tends to result in a reduction of sebum production, which makes the skin less oily and acne-prone.
Skin-Enhancing Experience
Safety and Effectiveness of the Procedure
Many women develop stretch marks following pregnancy or as a result of weight gain or loss. Stretch marks are typically very difficult to get rid of with topical medications and products.
Microneedling has been proven as an effective means to diminish the appearance of stretch marks, making it a popular choice among women.
Microneedling can also reduce the size of pores. When the needles puncture the skin and collagen production is boosted around the pores, the pores appear shrunken or closed. Many patients opting for microneedling treatment in Toronto are surprised to learn that the treatment can also reduce blackheads. The controlled trauma caused by the pinpricks tends to cause the positive side effect of dislodging blackheads during the procedure.
Typically, microneedling treatment in Toronto is safe and effective for all skin types. However, to formulate a treatment plan tailored to your skincare goals, it is important to consult an experienced doctor or plastic surgeon.
