Did you know that our skin is the body’s largest organ? Yet we often forget to treat it beyond surface level. Our face especially, has much thinner skin than the rest of our body which is why professional treatments are highly recommended to promote cell turnover ensuring you maintain a plump, healthy appearance. One of the ways you can achieve this at LuxBodi is with our skin-needling treatment.
Skin-needling is a non-invasive treatment that improves the appearance of a range of skin concerns; from acne scars, to pigmentation, to fine lines, by stimulating the production of collagen. With this treatment, you can achieve an improvement in skin texture, an even skin tone, as well as a natural healthy glow.
Here are 3 skin concerns that skin-needling can help to combat:
- Fine Lines & Wrinkles
As we age, it is inevitable that our skin’s collagen naturally degrades. With reduced collagen and elastin, this is when fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging of skin becomes more noticeable. By targeting the deeper layers of skin, skin-needling not only stimulates more collagen and elastin, but it also encourages cell turnover allowing for healthy new cells to form and diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Throughout the years, the speed at which our skin cells turnover gets slower and slower, which is why wrinkles stick around and become more prominent.
- Scarring
Whether you have acne scarring, surgery scarring, or scars caused by an accident, skin-needling can help to reduce their appearance. During the treatment as new collagen and elastin is produced, the scarred tissue is restructured with new skin cells. The result of this process allows for less defined scarred edges, as well as a softened, smoother texture.
- Sun Damage and Pigmentation
Naturally boosting the production of collagen is a highly effective way to reverse sun damage and hyperpigmentation of the skin. Thanks to skin-needling’s natural abilities to repair and restore skin, discoloration can be treated within several sessions. Skin-needling requires no downtime, so there’s no need to take time off work. While you may experience some reddening of the treatment area, your skin should return to normal within 24-48 hours after your session.
If you’re looking to improve the texture of your skin, even your skin tone or reduce visible signs of aging, skin-needling may be for you! We recommend booking in for a FREE consultation at your local LuxBodi clinic to achieve that refreshed, healthy glow.
