Improve Product Absorption And Skin Texture With Microneedling

Lakeside Aesthetics provides microneedling for our clients. Using micro, medical grade, sanitised steel needles to puncture the skin, microneedling encourages natural healing, revealing smoother skin which absorbs product more easily.

A Non-Invasive Approach To Collagen Induction

Microneedling is an effective therapeutic technique that is widely recognised as simple and safe. Collagen induction therapy works by puncturing the skin in a controlled fashion with miniature fine needles. This encourages the skin’s natural healing process and the result is often smoother skin which absorbs product better and provides a smooth surface for the application of makeup.

This approach is used to improve the appearance of scars by many medical practitioners and is considered safe and effective. You’ll need regular treatments for the best results.

Treating Acne Scars, Pockmarks, and Rosacea

Collagen induction therapy is an effective treatment that promotes the growth of new collagen in your skin. This protein is responsible for skin elasticity and wound healing.

This procedure lasts between 10 to 20 minutes, and depending on the area treated, you can quickly see results after multiple sittings.

What To Expect At Your Microneedling Appointment

Here is what you should expect if you decide to go forward with this procedure.

First, your aesthetician will clean the target area with an antiseptic or saline treatment. They will then stretch the area with one hand and perpendicularly roll a dermaroller in a horizontal, oblique, and vertical direction with the other hand.

The rolling is applied 5 times in each direction. This beauty therapy method is safe for most skin types and requires minimal recovery downtime. Microneedling results are usually seen over a longer period because new collagen continues to be laid down 3-6 months after your treatment has stopped.

We recommend that you consult a dermatologist before trying microneedling if you are pregnant, suffer from rosacea, have eczema, or any conditions that will easily irritate your skin.
