What Is Microneedle?

Microneedle is a specially-designed hyaluronic acid filler that is infused with all-natural antioxidants, vitamins, amino acids and minerals. When injected into the skin, Microneedle will encourage the regrowth of collagen, lighten dark spots, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

• Boost the production of collagen
• Increase volume to reduce superficial lines and wrinkles
• Rehydrate dull and dry skin
• Lift and tone to help reverse the effects of pollutants, smoking and aging
• The boost of antioxidants will help combat photo aging, damage caused from prolonged sun exposure.

How Does Microneedle Work?

The use of Microneedle is part of a complete treatment known as Mesotherapy which is gaining popularity in the USA, but is very well known and sought after in France. Treatments will consist of six sessions, all of which include a series of micro injections administered mid-way into the skin. Each treatment will be scheduled two weeks apart; some patients may need to continue up to six months.

Microneedle is more commonly used to treat signs of aging that appear on the face; however, Microneedle can also safely treat areas on the hands, neck and chest.

Are There Conditions In Which Microneedle Should Not Be Used?

Yes, patients that experience any of the following:

• Active Skin Disorders: such as cold sores, herpes, eczema, etc.
• Known allergies to Lidocaine or other topical anesthetic or similar numbing agents
• Pregnant or breast feeding
• Diabetic or insulin dependent
• Suffer from kidney, liver or heart disease
• Taking medications including the use of aspirin and ibuprofen to control a bleeding disorder

Please consult a medical professional about any medication or prescriptions that you may be taking as they may interfere with the results of this treatment.

What Can I Expect Post Treatment?

Many patients will experience slight redness and mild swelling which may take up to 12 hours to subside. It is advised that the area(s) treated should avoid heat/sunlight for at least 8 hours. Most patients will see immediate results after their first treatment, while others may require a booster treatment after 6 months. To prolong the long lasting effects of Microneedle, you should apply sunscreen to treated areas to protect against UVA and UVB rays.
