Surgical needling for a skin lift

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.

With the method of surgical needling, certain receptors are stimulated in such a way that more growth factors for the formation of new collagen fibers and hyaluronic acid are released, which are responsible for the elasticity and strength of the connective tissue. Deliberately injuring the skin does not impair its protective function, as the top layer of skin closes itself again after a few minutes. After the surgical needling treatment, the skin is much more receptive to care products, which also stimulate collagen formation and thus sustainably support the tightening effect.

With surgical needling, the quality of extensive scars, e.g. after burns or scalding, can also be improved markedly.

In many cases, it makes good sense to combine surgical needling with treatment with botulinal toxin, hyaluronic acid or a thread lift.

INDICATION: loss of elasticity and contour, ‘strawberry chin’, wan and tired skin, irregular or large-pored skin, acne scars, scars from burns, stretchmarks (‘pregnancy stretchmarks’), crumpled or thin skin, skin blotches, smoker’s skin, cellulitis

TREATMENT: micro-needle roller, skin stimulation cocktails

RESULT: Just one day after the treatment, the skin already looks firmer. Even the smallest creases can be seen to be much less deep. During the course of a few weeks the wrinkles become flatter and fine creases vanish.

DURATION OF TREATMENT: usually, treatment course over 12 weeks (6 sessions at fortnightly intervals)

PRESENTABILITY, RETURN TO WORK: usually immediate

POSSIBLE COMPLICATIONS: tried and tested treatment with low side effect rate – in isolated cases there may be minor external side effects (e.g. reddening, inflammation)

DURABILITY: approx. 12 months
