Skin Needling System / 0,3 & 0,5 mm

How the needling system works?

Needling systems are used for a treatment process called micro-needling or skin-needling. It is a form of collagen induction therapy, quickly gaining popularity in the USA, UK and Europe. Skin needling systems are already hugely popular in parts of Asia where it has been practiced for some years. Unlike other treatments for acne scars, stretch marks and wrinkles, skin needling system do not damage the skin or remove the epidermis layer.

How needling system Works?

Although there are no outward signs of damage, one single micro needle causes a tiny wound in the skin. You cannot see it or feel it as the damage is on a minute scale. Despite the minuscule nature of the wound, the body still acts to heal itself in its own natural way. The post traumatic response of the skin is to produce collagen and elastin – two of the key building blocks of skin. As there has been no removal or “real” damage to existing collagen, the new formation of it simply adds to existing levels. Imagine now that on a typical roller, there are 192 needles. If, when using the skin needling system the skin is rolled six times (back and forth in three directions), these are over a thousand needle entries, all of which will act to stimulate new collagen fibers. It is not difficult to see that over time, this will act to massively increase the thickness, suppleness and general condition of the skin in these areas.

Other micro needling benefits

In addition to stimulating collagen growth, micro needling also creates channels through which any substance applied to the skin surface (know as topical application) can be absorbed far more easily. It is, after all, the skin’s job to keep things out and piercing this shield works well in breaking down that barrier for a limited time. What this means is that any topical application used actually reaches the areas it is intended for. Studies suggest that using a skin needling system in this way can boost the effectiveness of topical treatment by several hundred percent. Be very careful to use only sterilized products, free of preservatives and chemicals! The nutrients or active ingredients are allowed to reach the lower levels of the skin layers.
