Microneedling

Service Description

Microneedling is also known as a "mini-lift." No wonder, as this gentle treatment is extremely effective against wrinkles and for tightening sagging tissue. During microneedling, specific receptors are stimulated, triggering the release of increased growth factors in the skin. These growth factors, in turn, stimulate the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid in the connective tissue – for greater elasticity and firmness. Microneedling Switzerland - Applications for: - Sagging facial contours - Lines and wrinkles - Enlarged pores - Scars - Double chin - Tired and dull complexion MICRONEEDLING TREATMENT PROCESS Before the treatment, the treatment goal is defined in a personal consultation, and all steps are explained again. Then we can begin – with a gentle cleansing including disinfection. Hyaluronic acid is then applied to your skin. The next step is the actual needling, in which the uppermost layer of skin is treated with tiny needles using the microneedling pen. But don't worry – the treatment isn't painful. A specially cooling fleece mask is applied at the end to soothe the skin and provide it with ample moisture. The microneedling process activates growth factors. Skin cells are stimulated to produce collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. Depending on the treatment goal and skin condition, approximately 3-5 microneedling treatments are needed, spaced 3-6 weeks apart. The first few days after microneedling: • Don't panic if you see redness: Your skin will likely be a little red and perhaps slightly swollen. This is perfectly normal and will subside after about 24 to 48 hours. • Sunscreen is your best friend: Your skin is now particularly sensitive to sunlight. So grab a sunscreen with a high SPF (at least 50) and protect your face from the sun. Even on cloudy days! • Makeup break: Give your skin a few days off from makeup. It needs time to breathe. • No sauna or tanning beds: Heat and steam can irritate your skin. It's best to wait a few days before using a tanning bed or sauna again. • Exercise in moderation: Reduce strenuous activities that cause you to sweat. No exercise.
