Are you still wondering about micro dermal needling? Nik at Mojo Beauty is here to share the many benefits of and why just about everyone can benefit from micro dermal needling treatments.

What is amazing about micro dermal needling is the fact that the epidermis is preserved, improved and thickened over time. There is no significant downtime and the treatment also encourages normal cell-to-cell communication which encourages the skins health to better receive the nutrients from treatments and products used. Micro dermal needling also damages and removes lesser functioning skin cells which are replaced by newer, better functioning cells that ultimately improve the function and complexion. Nik at Mojo Beauty will explain the procedure and how it works at your appointment.

Hyperpigmentation & Sun Spots

You may know that micro-needling, or collagen induction therapy, also increases, stimulates and remodels the collagen. A micro-injury is created in the skin during the treatment, and when this injury occurs, it reboots the cellular function of the skin. By rebooting the cellular function, it can create a lot of other benefits. For example, if the body’s melanocytes (melanin-forming cells) are over-producing or under-producing pigment, needling can normalise this and thus reduce or improve pigment in the skin. The treatment also removes skin cells that contain melanin deposits and therefore brightens and evens out the skin tone.

Acne and other Scars

Clinical studies demonstrate that micro dermal needling has also been effective on acne scars, stretch marks and surgical scarring, as the needling mechanically breaks down the scar tissue. It increases the platelet growth factors which attracts white blood cells into the wound, releasing anti-inflammatory growth factors by the immune system promoting healing and scar reduction. Scars will smooth out and the area will be plumped up.

Elasticity of the Skin

In addition to the synthesis of new collagen, micro dermal needling also synthesizes the ‘stretchy’ protein found in connective tissue within the skin, which we know as elastin. This will allow our skin to “snap” back into place when it is tugged at instead of sagging.

Broken Capillaries and Rosacea

Micro dermal needling is also incredibly beneficial in the treatment of rosacea and broken capillaries in the skin.  Dermal needling thickens the dermis of the skin over time and stimulates angiogenesis which produces stronger vessel walls and connective tissue that supports the vessels for improved blood flow. In time, this will lessen the appearance of the vessels under the skin and reduce redness in the skin for an even-toned appearance.

Less Costly and Safer than other Semi Invasive Treatments

Lastly, clinical studies have proven that dermal needling treatments can be more effective than other skin rejuvenation treatments like laser resurfacing, dermabrasion, and chemical peels. It is just as effective as non-ablative treatments like IPL, CO2 laser, and Fraxel in stimulating collagen and elastin production and is more affordable! What is even better, it is safe for all skin types because there is no risk of melanocyte (darkening of the skin) heat injury!

Get Ready to Transform Your Skin

Dermal needling is safe and benefits all skin tones, all parts of the body, and can be done on those in their 20’s and beyond! Recovery time is short and the benefits continue to improve for up to three months after the treatment.
