Simple, yet powerful, micro-needling uses sterile needles to create micro-injuries in the skin’s topmost layer. These minute holes encourage the body’s normal wound-healing procedure by causing the creation of collagen and elastin, two vital proteins necessary for preserving the strength and flexibility of the skin. As a result, acne scars can gradually look substantially less noticeable. At Skincell Clinic, micro-needling gets performed with advanced equipment with minimal side effects and pain.
Micro-needling offers versatility in treating various acne scars types, like icepick, rolling, and boxcar scars. Moreover, it effectively targets specific scar types and is suitable for all skin types. The process is quick, and numbing lotions are applied before the therapy to reduce discomfort. Usually, the healing process lasts only a few days, with only minor redness and swelling. Patients can resume their regular activities quickly. The sessions at regular intervals improve acne scar texture and appearance over time. Even though scars might not entirely disappear, they can greatly reduce their visibility and produce a smoother, more even complexion.
