Microneedling
Microneedling
Microneedling” is what many call “collagen induction therapy,” or the “vampire facial”, credited to the Kardashians. The SavvyDerm Skin Clinic uses a microneedling device called the SkinPen® to activate the skin’s natural healing process and stimulate collagen and elastin production. The SkinPen penetrates the skin’s surface, triggering a natural immune response to disinfect, remove debris, increase blood flow, and activate the creation of new tissue. The micro-channels created are rebuilt with new collagen and elastin. Increased collagen and elastin improve skin quality, visibly reducing facial acne scars and neck wrinkles, leaving skin more smooth, radiant, and younger-looking.
