What is Microneedling?

Microneedling, or collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive procedure that uses microscopic needles to create thousands of controlled micro-injuries. These channels prompt the body’s natural healing response, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin—the two essential proteins responsible for skin strength and elasticity.
