Inspired by acupuncture and mesotherapy, micro needling (also known as Collagen Induction Therapy or CIT for short) is a natural, non-invasive, affordable, safe, and highly effective treatment solution. It reverses damage and improves the quality of your skin by stimulating collagen production and cell regeneration and helps break down scar tissue.

The amazing thing about micro needling is that you don’t need to “go under the knife” to achieve profound results. At SkinGlow, we use the innovative and ground-breaking micro needling technology whichimproves overall skin health and is suitable for all skin types. This safe and effective treatment is a heat-free alternative to invasive lasers, requires no injectables and delivers incredible long-term results. It only takes 30-60 minutes per treatment in our clinic and requires very little downtime for healing afterwards. Micro needling has the ability to tighten, lift, and rejuvenate your skin in only 6-8 weeks!

What can micro needling do for you?  

Decrease the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

Collagen and elastin are largely responsible for your skin’s strength and elasticity. Over time, the collagen and elastin in your skin breaks down, leading to wrinkles that give the appearance of aging. Micro needling works not only to minimize these signs of ageing, but also prevents future fine lines and wrinkles from making their debut on your skin.

Even out skin tone and texture and reduce scarring

The breaking down of scar tissue and stimulation of elastin and collagen through micro needling helps smooth out your skin’s appearance and reduce visible scarring. This includes repairing acne scars and stretch marks!

Minimize enlarged pores

As mentioned before, micro needling causes the stimulation of collagen. The increase in collagen causes the skin to plump up in and around your pores, resulting in the minimization (and possible disappearance!) of visible pores.

Get rid of pigmentation, redness due to rosacea, and sun damage

The stimulating properties of micro needling treatment cause the release of natural growth factor which encourages cell regeneration. In addition to promoting collagen and elastin production, this action causes cell turnover and healing, which reduces skin pigmentation and redness.
