What is MICRO NEEDLING?

Automated Micro-Needling (also known as Epidermal Collagen Induction Therapy or ECIT) is a new inno­vation in aesthetic medicine for the treatment of the appearance of fine lines. acne scars and the improvement of the skin's texture. tone and color.

During this procedure. the MicroPen is used to create controlled

micro-injuries to the skin in order to aid in the production of collagen and elastin. The skin's re­pair process results in a thicker epidermis with a softer appearance of wrinkles.

The MicroPen also creates micro-channels which allow topical gels. creams and serums to be absorbed more effectively, enhancing the effects in deeper layers of the skin.
