Hundreds of tiny needles puncturing your skin might sound like medieval torture, but microneedling in Parker may be the best thing that ever happened to your skin. The process creates minute punctures on the surface of the skin. This triggers the body to produce collagen and elastin. The result is a dramatic improvement in the texture and firmness of the skin. The process also reduces the visual effect of tiny facial imperfections such as scars, wrinkles, and stretch marks.
Microneedling is also known at The Studio Med Spa as collagen induction therapy. Small needles make hundreds of tiny punctures in the top layer of the skin, the epidermis. The treatment employs a derma roller. The device is akin to a small paint roller, but rather than surfaced with fabric, the device is surfaced with tiny needles. The minute injuries to the skin stimulate the wound healing process. This, in turn, results in an increase in the production of elastin and collagen that reverses, as well as prevents, the signs of premature aging. Dermatologists have found that it takes only a few sessions to have a noticeable impact on the appearance and texture of the skin. Microneedling is a preferred method as it uses the natural healing ability of the body.
Microdermabrasion in Parker is another minimally invasive procedure used to renew skin tone and texture. Rather than puncture the skin surface, microdermabrasion gently abrades or sands away the outer layer of skin. There is very little preparation. Before the procedure, the technician will tell you to avoid exposure to the sun or the use of tanning lotions for about a week. The in-office procedure takes about an hour. There is no need to use anesthesia or a numbing agent as the procedure is virtually painless. The USFDA first approved microdermabrasion in 1996. Since then, many thousands of people have been delighted with the results.
