What to Expect After Micro-Needling Sessions?

Micro-needling is also known as collagen induction therapy or CIT and it is a highly proven skin rejuvenation procedure. The therapy found in use today is the result of extensive research and development and today you can get the services from the comfort of your home. You will be taken with professional care regimes to defend against infections and here are what you can expect from these therapies.

Does this work?

Various and extensive research has revealed that this process works best for 80% of problems in skin issues. The various skin problems that can be probably treated are:

  • Signs of aging on the skin
  • Stretch marks
  • Acne scars
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Scars from injuries

This process is effective because the micro-needling stimulates the production of collagen and elastin under your skin surface. During the therapy, there are hundreds of micro-injuries performed under the skin and with the skin’s recovery, collagen production is boosted. The skin plumps up and the injuries are hardly noticed. A new gush of blood reaches those areas and signs of hyperpigmentation are cured.

How are the adverse effects lowered?

  • The cosmetologist explains what you can expect from this procedure.
  • Your skin will be thoroughly checked for active issues.
  • Your skin is then thoroughly cleansed.
  • A numbing agent is applied all over.
  • Small needles are used to target delicate skin areas.
  • The needle pricks will leave a slightly bloody appearance.

What to expect after the treatment?

  • You will be advised to maintain highly sterile conditions.
  • There might be redness or bruising arising due to the needling process.
  • Collagen production also might trigger slight inflammation.
  • Skin needs a good time to recover.

Is it safe to exercise after the procedure?

Avoiding high heated ambiences or heat liberating situations is what is ideally advised. These procedures are going to make your skin a bit sensitive. The salt in sweat might trigger inflammation and you might be left in discomfort. Any workout or strenuous activities must be avoided within these days following the treatment. You might also want to cancel all the pre-booked saunas or steam bath sessions for the sake of your skin’s health. Going out in the sun or undergoing extremely cold compresses are also something you should take note of.
