What is? Microneedling

Microneedling is performed with a special pen that has a sterile cartridge with multiple tiny needles that penetrate skin. The concept of microneedling is to create controlled environment of small injuries on the top layer of the skin, to signal our body the need to repair and activating natural healing processes. By activating our own growth factors, platelets and white blood cells to rush and start healing process, our body starts producing extra collagen and elastin within dermis and epidermis, therefore making our skin stronger, erasing small lines and increasing cell turnover. The benefits are enormous, especially when our microneedling treatment specialists in Centennial use specialized products such as Growth Factors, Antioxidants, Peptides and Vitamins.
