The process of micro needling causes a disruption in the skin layers that activates the wound healing response producing baby collagen (to rebuild the skin which later turns into stronger collagen).

I like to take a holistic approach, so the pre micro-needling preparation may involve taking fish oils or the equivalent and a ABC facial serums (essentially Vitamins A, B and C which have been shown to improve, protect and repair damaged skin. I recommend O’Cosmedics and FDM Cosmeceuticals facial serums. If this treatment is something you may like try please come in and have a chat.
