Microneedle Therapy involves numerous fine needles directly piercing through the epidermis and to the site in the dermis needing improvement. The needles are evenly rolled back and forth to induce growth factor production and stimulate collagen proliferation. In no time, the microneedle rollers will have produced over 200,000 fine channels. Different active ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid, EGF growth factor, and other medical-grade skincare products, are imported if needed. The microneedle rollers then pierce through the tiny skin pores for instant absorption.
Since microneedle rollers are a type of mild therapy with low invasiveness, people can return to their workplace soon after treatment. It is not only an immediate and affordable treatment choice, but it is also the only commercially available Fraxel laser treatment method and filling cosmetic surgery. Microneedle technology has very few side effects and is safe and reliable, thus making it the best anti-aging care therapy.
♦Efficacy
1.Microneedle rollers can quickly stimulate the dermis and the collagen in the subcutaneous tissue, as well as the recovery mechanism of fibroblast, collagen, and elastin proliferation.
2.Minimally-invasive repair causes platelets to release a skin growth factor for skin tissue repair, specifically through a deep and minimally-invasive process that causes minimum bleeding, thus whitening and repairing the skin, removing stretch marks and scars, reducing pores, lightening fine lines and stretch marks, and restoring youthful, firm, and delicate skin.
3.After the microneedle rollers are stimulated, the skin will achieve the ideal result of tightened and improved facial skin tissue, while the microneedles will stimulate the dermal layer to promote collagen proliferation through the skin’s self-healing ability, thus increasing the skin’s epidermal thickness by 8%.
♦Who need
1.To reduce fine lines, induce collagen proliferation, treat cellulites, enhance skin elasticity and thickness, and treat scars and stretch marks; to improve fine lines around eyes, dark circles around the eyes, and tighten and improve facial skin tissue.
2.To improve skin problems, whiten the skin, reduce stains, and eliminate dull and sallow skin as well as uneven pigmentation.
3.To treat baldness.
4.To perform home care.
5.To effective deliver nutrients and enhance the degree of skin absorption.
♦The time varies according to scope of treatment.
The time varies according to scope of treatment. Each session (preoperative and postoperative) is about 60-90 minutes. Therapy sessions are usually conducted once every 2-3 weeks, 6-10 sessions in total.
The doctor will provide recommendations according to the skin condition of individuals after an assessment.

Q:Is microneedle lift therapy painful?
A:Before treatment: First apply local anesthesia and begin treatment after the treatment site has been numbed. The needle is very small and enters vertically into and out of the skin, and thus the pain is not obvious. There may only be slight tingling in more sensitive parts, but the sensation is generally acceptable.
Q:How many microneedle therapy sessions do I need to see improvement?
A:2-6 therapy sessions are usually required, but the number will depend on age, skin condition, sequelae of different parts, and other factors. First consult a professional doctor to devise the best treatment plan.
Q:What is postoperative care for microneedle therapy?
A:Do not be in contact with water within four hours on the first day of treatment. Sunscreen and strengthened moisturizing will do the rest, just like all other therapies.
Q:If I undergo only one microneedle treatment, will obvious results be seen?
A:Microneedle treatment involves the use of micnimally-invsive fine needles that stimulate collagen regeneration. Hence, multiple sessions will bring more obvious results. The recommended basic therapy package contains at least 4-6 sessions. During treatment intervals, acid skin resurfacing or other light therapies may be supplemented. Depending on the skin improvement result, evaluate whether further therapy is needed.
Q:Am I at risk for scars after microneedle therapy?
A:After completing therapy, please strengthen moisturizing and sunscreen before going out with makeup on. Some people may experience slight skin peeling and whiteheads/blackheads 3-5 days after treatment. After the peeling has been completed, the skin will become delicate and smooth. As long as you do not have a physical constitution prone to keloids, scarring is not likely.
