Stimulate Collagen Production and Improve the Look of Your Skin Today!
Microneedling is one of the most advanced and minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatments available today. It involves the use of small needles to create micro punctures on the skin’s surface. This treatment stimulates collagen production, promoting the skin’s natural healing process and addressing skin conditions such as fine lines, acne scars, wrinkles, and uneven skin texture. AADC offers a traditional microneedling treatment, as well as microneedling with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that involves the use of a tool called a dermaroller or microneedling pen. The device is equipped with small needles that are used to create tiny puncture wounds in the skin. This process is also known as collagen induction therapy because it stimulates the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. Microneedling is used to treat a variety of skin conditions, including fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and stretch marks. The procedure is safe when performed by a trained professional, but it can cause redness, swelling, and discomfort in the skin for a few days afterwards. It is recommended to avoid sun exposure and use a gentle skincare routine during the healing process.
