Benefits of microneedling

Microneedling has gained popularity for its growing list of benefits. It is said to rejuvenate and plump the skin with minimal discomfort and downtime, and it can be adjusted to fit each person’s needs.

Microneedling can improve:

• the appearance of scars, including acne scars, fine lines, and wrinkles
• enlarged pores
• the appearance of hyperpigmentation, or dark spots
• uneven skin tone
• skin elasticity
• the appearance of stretch marks
• hair growth in people with alopecia
