What is Microneedling and Mesotherapy?

Microneedling is a procedure used to target different skin conditions in a minimally invasive way. Microneedling causes tiny injuries on the epidermis and dermis layer of the skin by irrigating and triggering the healing response. The small micro wounds close after a short time and trigger the bodies healing through stimulating your skin cells which causes new skin to form . The result is a thicker more youthful skin by producing fibroblasts and growth promoting properties.

New collagen, elastin and GAGS (Glycosaminoglycans) form reducing the appearance of rhytids, hyper pigmentation, scarring, dull skin land leaves a brighter, clearer complexion. In-between skin layers there is stretchy tissue (elastin) held together with collagen and a liquid (GAGS). It is vital for all 3 to be triggered together for optimal results. Microneedling is only ever done on skin types 1-3 and only sometimes on skin type 4 in the Fitzpatrick Scale.

Mesotherapy is a procedure that is a very effective alternative to micro dermabrasion. Microdermabrasion sloughs off 20% of dead skin cells. Mesotherapy takes 75% of the stratum corneum. It will repair very superficial injuries to the stratum corneum in a controlled way. Mesotherapy also acts as an aid in accelerating the effects of skincare products. It stimulates epidermal growth and is a much deeper exfoliation than a traditional scrub or micro facial. This treatment requires less downtime than the microneedling.

Mesotherapy is safe to perform on all skin types 1-6 on the Fitzpatrick Scale.
