Digital Microneedling
Digital Microneedling is a more controlled version of a roller microneedling treatment. It creates thousands of microchannels that stimulate your body’s natural wound healing process, while minimising cellular damage. This rejuvenates your skin from the inside out. The result is effective remodelling of scar tissue, while keeping the overall structure of the skin intact.
CONDITIONS THAT BENEFIT FROM DIGITAL MICRONEEDLING:
Acne scarring, fine lines & wrinkles, keloid scarring, large open pores, scarring, stretch marks.
This treatment can be carried out all over the face and body.
There are three phases to the wound-repair process:
- Phase I: Inflammation. Piercing the skin triggers your immune system to cleanse the wound, remove debris, increase blood flow and begin to create new tissue.
- Phase II: Proliferation. The wound is rebuilt with new granulation cells, which are part of the extracellular matrix. Additionally, a new network of blood vessels develops.
- Phase III: Remodelling. The wound is replaced with new dermal tissues and blood vessels.
