Microneedling

Microneedling utilizes our body’s natural healing process by increasing collagen production which smooths and tightens the skin. Collagen is one of the main building blocks of your skin. This essential protein gives structure and support to your skin which gives it a firm and smooth appearance. Aging, smoking, sun exposure, acne scarring, and other injuries to the skin causes loss of collagen which results in thinning and sagging of the skin. Microneedling can be used to target acne scars, fine lines, age spots, large pores, and uneven skin tone.

Microneedling Procedure

Before the procedure begins, a numbing cream will be applied to the skin to ensure a comfortable experience. During the procedure, the practitioner will use a microneedling wand to create microtears in the skin, causing physical trauma to the skin which prompts rejuvenation and new skin cell growth. This encourages your skin to produce more collagen-rich tissue and appear more bright, smooth, and supple.
We also offer topicals to infuse with the microneedling process to give you extra benefits of rejuvenation.

Knowledge Card

What is Microneedling and how does it work at Redefine by Z MediSpa?

Increasing collagen and elastin production internally as well as helping the skin absorb essential vitamins and nutrients during the process of application is the purpose of our microneedling and PRP treatments. Elastin and collagen fibers are the healthy building blocks of tight, evenly textured skin. Microneedling is done using a hand-held device with 12 or more microneedles at the tip; these microneedles make tiny punctures in the skin in an evenly spaced manner. Natural healing processes are activated once these micro-channels are made in the skin.

As we apply microneedling to the skin and infuse your body’s own supply of nutrients and additional growth factors, we implement our platelet-rich plasma as a thin layer on the skin so that the plasma can fill in these micro-channels and begin to work its magic. Platelet-rich plasma is derived from your own blood drawn before your microneedling treatment and centrifuged to separate your red blood cells from their white counterparts. Certain white blood cells contain the body’s natural growth and strengthening factors, which when applied to the newly broken skin can help increase circulation and reduce scabbing or bleeding after the procedure along with promoting firmer, smoother skin. Using this all-natural, nutrient-filled serum is a revolutionary technique.
