Uncovering the Benefits of Microneedling for Glowing Skin

At West End Medical Aesthetics, we believe that everyone deserves radiant, luscious, glowing skin, no matter their age or lifestyle. One of our secret weapons for achieving this is a little something called microneedling. This minimally invasive treatment has emerged as one of the most sought-after skincare procedures, leaving many intrigued by its benefits.


In this blog post, we’ll take you on a deep dive into the world of microneedling, helping you understand how it can reveal your skin’s natural glow.


What is Microneedling?


Microneedling, also performed using the advanced Eclipse MicroPen, is a skin rejuvenation procedure that uses tiny, sterile needles to puncture the skin. This controlled skin injury triggers the body's wound-healing process, stimulating collagen and elastin production, the proteins that keep your skin tight, youthful, and glowing.


The Benefits of Microneedling


Improved Skin Texture and Tone:


The immediate proliferation of collagen and elastin after a microneedling treatment aids in diminishing fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars while improving the skin's texture, tone, and overall complexion. The result is smoother, firmer and extraordinarily younger-looking skin.


Improved Product Absorption:


By creating microchannels in the skin, microneedling enhances the absorption and efficacy of topical skincare products, making them penetrate more deeply and work more effectively.


Scars and Stretch Marks Reduction:


By promoting the growth of new skin cells and removing dead ones, microneedling can significantly reduce the appearance of scars, including acne scars and stretch marks.


What to Expect During and After a Microneedling Treatment?


During a microneedling session at West End Medical Aesthetics, our skilled practitioners will first cleanse and numb your skin before the procedure. The entire process typically takes about 60 minutes, including the numbing time.


Post-treatment, your skin may appear slightly pink or red, similar to a mild sunburn, but this usually subsides within a few hours. You may also experience some mild swelling or sensitivity for a few days post-treatment.


Remember to protect your skin from the sun as it will be particularly sensitive. But don't worry, within a week, you'll begin to notice improved skin texture and a glowing complexion.


Why Should You Opt for Microneedling at West End Medical Aesthetics?
