Microneedling / Collagen Induction
Highness offers micro-needling, also called collagen induction treatment. Micro-needling helps improve signs of skin damage, lines, wrinkles and scars, uneven skin tones, large pores, etc. The procedure works by making tiny pricks with small sterilized needles. The small wounds urge fibroblasts in the dermis layer of the skin to produce more collagen and elastin; the results being fuller, smoother skin.
Procedure
The area is cleansed and numbing cream is applied. Once the skin is ready, a medical grade micro needling device is used to make tiny pricks into the skin. After the procedure, specialized peptides and growth serums are applied; those help with quick recovery, healing, and stimulation of skin cells. The treatment takes about 30 minutes.
Downtime
There is no downtime post treatment, you may return to normal activities immediately; though the procedure may result in some swelling and redness that usually resolves itself within 24 hours.
Depending on the desired result, it may take multiple treatments to reach your desired goal but glow will be instantaneous. Maintenance is important and recommended monthly to prevent wrinkles and to keep the collagen production going.
