Microneedling effectively treats certain signs of skin aging related to the general texture of the skin and tonus loss.
WHAT DOES THE TREATMENT CONSIST OF?
The treatment consists of making microperforations on the surface of the skin, using a tiny automatic device that is hand-held and comprising several needles. The technician will go cover the entire treated area to make sure the needles penetrate adequately a serum based on hyaluronic acid which causes the natural reaction of collagen being produced to repair the ‘damaged’ skin. This repair and restore process create new and fresh-looking skin, boosted by a hydration infusion from the collagen. Microneedling is also known as collagen induction treatment.WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER A SESSION?
After a session, it is normal to feel a sensation of heat on the skin, a heat accompanied by slight redness that will subside quickly. A microneedling session shouldn't delay activities. However, it is important to protect your skin from UV rays by applying an elevated sunscreen suitable for your skin type. Our team can advise you on that. Also, as a precautionary measure, you need to avoid applying any cosmetic products the days following a microneedling. Let your skin rest and recovery more quickly. While your skin heals naturally, it will release more collagen and elastin that will help you achieve tremendous results.* At Zena Esthetique, we recommend sun protection clothing to protect the skin from sun exposure at all times.
