Skin Needling
Skin needling or micro-needling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation procedure that helps minimize and soften the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and acne scars. It is safe on all skin types including skin of colour. This treatment has no social downtime and is a relatively comfortable and safe procedure. All skin needling treatments at Delta Dermatology are performed by a registered nurse.
The micro-needling device causes controlled micro-injuries that stimulate your body’s natural wound healing process. The micro-injuries trigger the release of cytokines and growth factors that lead to remodelling of collagen and elastin. The treatment involves creating hundreds of tiny micro-channels in the skin with minimal damage to the epidermis.
This treatment is usually undertaken once every 3 weeks with a total of 6 - 12 treatments depending on your condition and response.
