Introducing Micro-Needling: Your Ultimate Guide to Collagen Induction Therapy
We are excited that Limoges Beauty in NYC is now offering a range of skincare services, including micro-needling, in addition to our electrolysis practice!
Understanding Micro-Needling
Initially intimidating, micro-needling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), involves using fine, sterile needles to create micro-punctures in the skin’s surface. This controlled injury stimulates collagen and elastin production without harming the epidermis, making it a trusted treatment since 1995.
Applications of Micro-Needling
Micro-needling addresses a variety of cosmetic and health concerns, including acne scars, wrinkles, stretch marks, pigmentation issues, excessive sweating, hair loss, and photodamage. It enhances skin tone, texture, and pore size on both facial and body areas and is suitable for all skin colors and types.
Benefits of Micro-Needling
Micro-needling triggers a wound-healing response, releasing growth factors like PGF, TGF-α, TGF-β, and FGF. This cascade promotes collagen remodeling, improving skin suppleness and glow over time.
Procedure and Recovery
Sessions typically last 10 minutes to an hour, with optional numbing cream for comfort. Post-treatment, expect mild redness, inflammation, or itching, managed with ice packs and sun protection. Visible results develop gradually over three to six months as collagen continues to rebuild.
Advancements in Micro-Needling
Recent advancements in materials and techniques enhance efficacy and safety. Our experts at Limoges Beauty are trained in these innovations to deliver optimal results tailored to your skincare goals.
