What Is Collagen Induction Therapy? 5 Ways Microneedling Rejuvenates Your Skin

January 1, 2021 by Joe Amaral

You want a treatment that will improve your skin, but you don’t want to do anything invasive. You may be wondering if there is such a treatment, and we have good news: there is. At Pristine Med Spa in Ridgecrest, CA, we offer collagen induction therapy, also known as microneedling, as a way to induce collagen production, rejuvenate the skin, and improve your overall appearance.

What Is Collagen Induction Therapy? 5 Ways Microneedling Rejuvenates Your Skin

Collagen induction therapy is the technical term for microneedling treatments. Collagen induction involves the stimulation of collagen production through the creation of tiny channels in the skin. These tiny channels are micro-injuries and the skin responds to them by flooding the area with collagen and elastin and in effect, rejuvenates the skin.

1. It Increases Collagen and Elastin Production

The aging process is responsible for the decrease in collagen and elastin production within the body. Collagen maintains plump and voluminous skin, while elastin keeps it pliable and able to move well. When elastin and collagen diminish, the skin suffers and the signs of aging are more evident on the skin. Microneedling can rejuvenate the skin by increasing collagen and elastin production and restoring youthful skin.

During this treatment, the skin responds to the tiny injuries and is forced to create new collagen to heal the area. This treatment also forces the body into healing mode, which results in collagen production, which leads to glowing and rejuvenated skin. Since the aging process decreases collagen and elastin production, the body needs to be forced to increase it from an outside source, and that’s exactly what this treatment does.

2. It Treats Fine Lines and Wrinkles

If you think there isn’t a way to treat fine lines and wrinkles other than using Botox, you’ll be happy to know that you are wrong. Microneedling is an effective, non-invasive treatment that will improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines gradually. When you undergo multiple treatment sessions, you’ll see a continuous reduction in the appearance of those fine lines and wrinkles and will experience rejuvenated, youthful skin.

3. It Helps Your Products Work Better

Another way that microneedling rejuvenates the skin is by creating micro-channels to open up the skin. When you apply your nutrient-rich products to your skin post-treatment, you automatically increase the effectiveness of your products. This will result in an overall improved skin tone, texture, and appearance.

4. It Makes Your Skin Glow

While you may experience a little redness immediately after your treatment, you can rest assured that it will go away very shortly and that the envy-worthy glow will appear soon after. Microneedling rejuvenates the skin, resulting in glowing, youthful skin fortified by collagen and elastin.

5. It Reduces Acne Scars

If you are unhappy with the appearance of your skin because you have visible acne scars on your face, microneedling can help reduce the appearance of those scars. When the needles penetrate the skin, they pierce below the scar tissue, past the epidermis to the dermis, stimulating collagen production.
Collagen production increases in that area and pushes up against the scar from the inside out, making it less visible. If you’ve lived with acne scars long enough, once you see them begin to fade, you will experience a skin rejuvenation like none other.

What Areas Does It Treat?

This treatment is an effective way to rejuvenate the skin in many different areas of the body. It can be used on the face, the hands, the neck, and other areas where you want to experience skin rejuvenation.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

The total number of treatments necessary to see the best results varies from person to person. If you simply want to rejuvenate your skin, you will see results from one treatment but will see continuous results from several sessions. If you are trying to treat problematic skin conditions like acne scars, you may need more than one treatment for optimal results.

Am I a Candidate?

If you are looking for a minimally invasive way to rejuvenate your skin and increase collagen and elastin production, with no downtime, then you are most likely a candidate for this treatment. During an initial consultation with our skincare experts, we will review your health history, discuss your concerns, and determine whether or not this treatment is best suited to meet your goals.

Factors That Exclude You From This Treatment

Some conditions temporarily exclude you from this treatment including:
  • You are pregnant or nursing
  • You are using Accutane, or have used it within the past 90 days
  • You have a skin infection or are experiencing herpes symptoms in the area you wish to have treated
  • You have had radiation treatment on your skin within the past 12 months
  • You have open wounds or cuts in the area of treatment
