Unlock the Secret to Radiant Skin with Microneedling and Mesotherapy Infusions
Posted by Trudy Petith on 16th Jul 2024
At About Face, we believe in offering treatments that deliver real results, and we’re excited to share the benefits of two of our most popular skin therapies: micro needling and mesotherapy infusions. Let’s dive into how these treatments can rejuvenate your skin and the clinical backing that supports their efficacy.
The Comfortable Treatment Experience
First, let’s talk about the experience of the treatment. Both microneedling and mesotherapy infusions are performed using the same TGA-approved medical-grade pen. The procedure is comfortable with minimal discomfort, thanks to the speed of the device, which operates faster than the body’s pain receptors can react. Clients often liken the sensation to that of microdermabrasion, ensuring a pleasant experience. The aim is not to make the skin bleed but to create a gentle flushing, signaling that your body’s natural response is in action.
These treatments are especially effective for improving skin texture and addressing those small, superficial lines that other treatments might miss. They work wonders on fine lines and overall skin smoothness, providing a noticeable difference in your skin’s appearance.
Microneedling: Boost Your Collagen Naturally
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment that uses fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin. This process stimulates your skin’s natural healing response, leading to increased collagen and elastin production—essential proteins for youthful, firm skin.
Clinical studies have shown that microneedling can boost collagen production by up to 400% after just four sessions. According to a study published in the Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery, participants experienced significant increases in collagen and elastin, resulting in smoother, firmer skin (Majid, 2009).
How It Works:
Tiny Needles: The Toskani Med micro needling device creates micro-injuries in the skin.
Natural Healing: These injuries trigger your skin’s repair process.
Collagen Production: This process boosts the production of collagen and elastin, essential for healthy, youthful skin.
Mesotherapy Infusions: Deep Skin Nourishment
After micro needling, we enhance the treatment by infusing TGA injectable-grade serums directly into the skin. This technique involves microinjections of vitamins, enzymes, hormones, and plant extracts to rejuvenate and tighten the skin, targeting the middle layer (mesoderm) to deliver nourishing substances where they are needed most.
Benefits of Mesotherapy:
Hydration: Deeply hydrates and nourishes the skin.
Brightening: Helps to lighten pigmentation and even skin tone.
Firming: Improves skin elasticity and firmness.
How It Works:
Microinjections: Using fine needles, beneficial substances are injected into the mesoderm after microneedling.
Nourishment: Delivers active ingredients directly to the skin cells.
Rejuvenation: Promotes cell regeneration and improves overall skin health.
We understand that skincare decisions are important, and we want to provide you with the information you need to make the best choices for your skin.
