MICRONEEDLING
​

Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation procedure, where a device with tiny needles is used to puncture the skin and induce collagen production.  It can be effectively used to treat acne scarring, pigmentation, uneven skin tone, and fine lines and wrinkles.

​ 
The 'micro-punctures' can be done on all areas of the face and neck including thin skin under the eyes to activate collagen and elastin. Treatments can tighten skin, improve elasticity, and reduce the appearance of scars and sun spots.  It also increases the absorption of applied product, allowing your cells to receive the vitamins and nutrients they need for optimal health.  


A topical numbing cream is applied so that the treatment is painless, and a short downtime of 48 hours is generally expected. Microneedling is offered exclusively at ND Skin and includes a vitamin mask with custom serums.  Contraindications include active/cystic acne, pregnancy, and autoimmune conditions.
