Microneedling Auckland
Microneedling is a procedure that uses small needles to get into the skin. This helps with generating new collagen and skin tissue for better and healthier skin.
The process of rolling tiny needles over your face sounds terrifying, but this ultimate advanced technology offers a safe, precise and reliable procedure and provides outstanding results.
It promotes natural collagen and elastin production which helps in ageing by lifting, tightening and rejuvenating the skin. It also helps with the improvement of skin texture and keeps the skin smooth and blemish-free for a long period of time.
Dermapen 4™
Dermapen 4 is the latest micro-needling technology on the market. The technique of the Dermapen 4 that our therapists use is a cross-hatch pattern over your face. This distributes microscopic punctures to the top layers of the skin – a few millimetres deep depending on the treatment, using very small needles. This treatment stimulates the healing and repairing of the skin.
It triggers an inflammatory natural wound healing response in the skin which builds up renewal, repair, and rejuvenation and as well as collagen production resulting in fresh, new collagen and elastin, and a rejuvenated and more youthful skin.
