Paramedical Solutions and Camouflage

Skin Needling is accomplished by inserting a sterile needle grouping into the epidermal layer (dead skin cells) of tissue to create a slight superficial wound which signals the brain to initiate natural healing process and simultaneously stimulates the dermis layer (living layer of skin). Dermis then starts cell regeneration and stimulates fibroblasts to make and direct collagen & elastin to the injured site for repair, thus plumping up the injured area and creating a softer, subtler appearance of wrinkles, acne scars and other depressed areas.

This is a gradual process that permanently removes or diminishes scars and stretch marks and improves the skin's elasticity. Gradually, new or fresh skin replaces the scar or any irregularity on the surface of the skin and you will see improved texture. This procedure has been exceptionally successful when performed on patients with scarring from burns.

Each session of the procedure can safely remove as much as 0.5 mm of the scar tissue. Multiple sessions are required for deeper scars. Typically, repeated sessions are spaced four weeks apart and results are usually visible in 8-12 weeks. The skin appears to have pink to red-like “nail scratches” for a few (2-3) days after each needling application, depending on the severity of the treated area. Mineral makeup may be used on the face 72 hours after application.
