Microneedling

In an effort to overcome the aging or scar problems, a skin stimulator (so-called "microneedle roller") has been proposed and used. The skin stimulator is provided with sharp needles, which stimulate the skin and form micro-channels in the skin, thus supplying nutritive elements, such as vitamin or peptide required to produce collagen, to the dermis and epidermis of the skin and making the collagen be efficiently produced in the dermis. This type of treatment is entitled microneedling treatment.

Microneedling treatment is attaining popularity as an alternative to skin resurfacing treatment such as laser or chemical peels for the patients not suitable for laser treatment or wishing to have a less invasive procedure with fewer risks.

When choosing a proper treatment modality for skin rejuvena-tion, it is important to have a balance between the degree of injury (downtime) and the outcome (best result).

Microneedling treatment is very well-balanced technique which has the minimum downtime and a visible long-lasting effect.

MECHANISM OF MICRONEEDLING

Natural Collagen Induction

Microneedling results in the natural response to wounding of the skin, even though the wound is minute and mainly subcutaneous. A single needle prick through the skin would cause an invisible response. When the needle penetrates into the skin, this injury, minute as it might seem, causes some localized damage and bleeding by rupturing fine blood vessels. Platelets are automatically released and the normal process of inflammation commences, even though the wound is miniscule. A completely different picture emerges when thousands or tens of thousands of fine pricks are placed close to each other and one gets a field effect, because the bleeding is virtually confluent.

This promotes the normal post-traumatic release of growth factors and infiltration of fibroblasts. This reaction is automatic and produces a surge of activity that inevitably leads to the fibroblasts being "instructed" to produce more collagen and elastin.
