Microneedling with Rejuvapen NXT in Seattle-Tacoma
As we age, the internal structure of our collagen and elastin deteriorates. Unfortunately, this creates a visible difference in the way our skin looks and feels. Reactivate your collagen and elastin with microneedling. Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, produces healthier, evenly textured, youthful-looking skin.
Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure involving tiny needles to make small channels in the skin. With these open channels, we infuse growth factors such as peptides, exosomes, or PRP into the skin. The needling creates a trauma response to the skin, and as the body works to heal the skin, collagen and elastin is stimulated.
Microneedling is effective at treating:
- Acne Scars
- Fine Lines
- Wrinkles
- Enlarged Pores
- Stretch Marks
- Skin Texture
- Skin Tone
Benefits Include:
- Collagen Production: Microneedling promotes the production of collagen and elastin, which can improve skin texture and firmness.
- Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Helps to diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leading to a more youthful look.
- Improves Scars: Effective for treating acne scars and other types of scarring by encouraging skin regeneration.
- Reduces Pore Size: Can help decrease the appearance of enlarged pores.
- Enhances Skin Absorption: Increases the effectiveness of topical treatments applied after the procedure, allowing them to penetrate deeper into the skin.
Downtime is minimal, but patients may experience redness, swelling, or slight pinpoint bleeding, similar to a mild sunburn, which usually fades within a few days.
It’s important to avoid sun exposure, heavy exercise, and harsh skincare products for a few days following the treatment
Microneedling is suitable for most skin types, but it is essential to consult with a qualified professional to assess individual needs and potential contraindications.
Multiple sessions are often recommended for optimal results, typically spaced about four to six weeks apart.
Overall, microneedling is an effective treatment for improving skin texture, tone, and overall appearance, making it a popular choice in aesthetic skincare.
