Micro-Needling

Micro-needling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that has gained popularity in recent years. Promising results are shown to improve skin texture and appearance for dermatological conditions Lee et al. (2019). This procedure involves the use of a medical-grade device with fine needles that create controlled micro-injuries on the skin. Which then will have a stimulating effect on the body’s natural wound-healing process by promoting collagen production. Microneedling has been used to address various skin concerns, such as acne scars, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone Smith et al. (2020). Additional research is being conducted on the treatment of microneedling and alopecia. Furthermore, numerous serums are used to enhance the effects of microneedling concerning its mechanisms of action, clinical applications, efficacy, and safety profile based on current research and academic sources.
