Micro-needling
Micro-needling serves as a precision-engineered delivery system, creating temporary micro-channels in the epidermis to bypass the skin’s natural barrier. When paired with mesotherapy or exosomes, this synergistic approach allows for the direct infusion of potent bio-actives - such as hyaluronic acid, vitamins, or signalling vesicles - into the deeper dermal layers where they can most effectively stimulate cellular repair and collagen synthesis.
What is micro-needling?
Natural Face Aesthetics recommends the Derma FNS® micro-needling device when it comes to micro-needling. The Derma FNS® uses a specially designed and patented micro-needling device, each single use cartridge contains 12 ultra-fine sterile needles that are simply injected into the skin. This leads to a series of small punctures some surface bleeding. We work closely with SkinMed who distribute the Derma FNS®. We regularly use this pen as part of the Enerpeel protocols to boost treatments post acne, on deep pigmentation and also on lines wrinkles and stretch marks.
The small channels created by the needles are like wounds. Just as every wound sets the healing process of the body into motion, these injuries also stimulate the collagen formation process of the skin. Micro-needling the skin is a way of reminding the body to restart the collagen and elastin production process, which then leads to the formation of a new layer of skin which is thicker and smoother than before.
