Surgical Needling / Medical Needling for Skin Tightening
Surgical needling is a form of treatment which leads to a permanent improvement in skin quality and a clearly visible lift of your skin. In the process of surgical needling, also known as medical needling, percutaneous collagen induction therapy or the microneedle method, small injuries (microlesions) are inflicted on the skin under carefully controlled pressure using a roller equipped with numerous needles. These needles provide a stimulus for the skin cells without destroying them.
Surgical Needling or Medical Needling stimulates specific receptors to increase the release of growth factors for the regeneration of collagen fibers and hyaluronic acid, which are responsible for the elasticity and firmness of connective tissue. This intentional controlled injury to the skin does not compromise its protective function, as the top layer of skin reseals itself within a few minutes. Following the surgical needling treatment, the skin is significantly more receptive to skincare products that further stimulate collagen production and thus provide long-lasting support for the tightening effect.
In many cases, it makes good sense to combine surgical needling with treatment with botulinal toxin, hyaluronic acid or a thread lift.
