Facial & Skin Needling For Lines, Wrinkles and Scar Remodeling

Skin Needling, Line & Wrinkle Remodeling, or more commonly called MCA (multi trepanic collagen actuation); is a process that is similar to cosmetic pigment implantation, but without using the pigments. A “dry needle” is applied in the line/wrinkle to draw a light “bloodline”. The body perceives this as trauma to the area and its response is to repair and heal.

Facial & Skin Needling stimulate collagen production in the affected area plumping it up and improving the appearance of lines and wrinkles. This is especially exciting for the mouth and eye areas and can be used in addition to epidermal peels, laser facial rejuvenation, facelifts, fat grafting and injectibles when more softening of finer lines in these areas is desired.

Scars from breast surgery, browlifts, facelifts, and hair transplantation can be visibly improved. Needling the scar stimulates the re-coloration of white scars by bringing new blood supply to the area. Softening and remodeling of the scar can often minimize the need for Corrective Pigment Camouflage.

Simply put, the principle of needling creates a wound, which heals in three phases: inflammation, proliferation, and tissue remodeling. Healing takes from 3-7 days. Most people see results almost immediately, and keep seeing results through the tissue remodeling process during the healing period and weeks to follow. There are no guarantees with needling. Some client’s improvements are seen quickly while others even with multiple treatments, there is only a slight improvement.

Men and women alike can benefit form this procedure; results vary with each individual depending on the area, depth of the depressed tissue, and condition of the skin and how the individual heals. Clients experience a new appearance that translates into increased self-confidence and esteem.
