Bethany did a lovely micro-needling treatment with our latest XCELLARIS PRO TWIST machine for one of our lovely patients today here at Health Counts Aesthetic & Skin Laser Clinic. Finished off with a super hydrating face mask rich with hyaluronic acid to plump and smooth, promoting the preservation and improvement of the skins own firmness as well as optimal moisture balance.
Within a micro-needling procedure thousands of controlled micro channels are created in the skin to stimulate the wound healing process. This allows the skin to regenerate and repair, which results into a smoother, brighter and healthier looking complexion.
From the age of 18, our skin's collagen production decreases 1% per year, reducing to a staggering 30% by the time we reach 48 years of age. In women, a further 30% of collagen is lost in the first 5 years of menopause.
Microneedling is suitable for all skin types, ranging from 1- 6 on the Fitzpatrick scale and can dramatically improve a variety of skin ailments such as:
+ Fine lines & wrinkles
+ Aged & sun damaged skin
+ Impaired texture & tone
+ Acne scars
+ Atrophic scars
+ Hypertrophic scar
+ Striae (stretch marks)
