Medical needling stimulates new collagen production in the skin to help smooth wrinkles. Although well established for treatment of acne scarring, needling wrinkles is relatively new.
Skin needling does not work for all kinds of wrinkles, nor replace anti wrinkle injections, however it is a useful adjunct treatment that gives superior results to traditional therapies for some types of wrinkles.
The types of wrinkles the are best treated with facial needling.
Medical needling is best used in place of other resurfacing therapies.
Previously chemical peels or laser resurfacing were considered the treatment of choice for resurfacing of wrinkled, aged skin from sundamage. However these have considerable downtime and associated risks and can give an un-natural hypopigmented skin colour after treatment.
Though the results of facial needling for wrinkles is not as dramatic, it works to progressively improve skin health by increasing the quality and quanity of collagen in your skin. Medical needling is safe, with little down and gives a very natural healthy glow to the complextion as it smooths and progressively softens wrinkles.
Medical needling for wrinkles is affordable.
Facial needling involves rolling a medical roller over the skin to create pin point entrance wounds that seal and heal quickly. Unlike laser resurfacing and chemical peels there is no risk of scarring, does not cause pigment changes, and is very affordable. A full facial needling will cost $330-$440 compared to cost of around $3000 for laser resurfacing.
