Medical-Grade Microneedling
What is Medical-Grade Microneedling?
Medical-Grade Microneedling is an aesthetic procedure using a controlled depth device to create thousands of microscopic channels in the dermis. This controlled trauma signals the skin to enter its repair cycle, generating new, fresh tissue to replace damaged areas. It is designed to safely treat complex issues like deep scarring, wrinkles, and texture irregularities.
Areas That Can Be Treated With Medical-Grade Microneedling:
Face: For overall rejuvenation, texture, and firmness.
Neck and Décolletage: To tighten skin and reduce fine lines and crepey texture.
Scars: Effective on atrophic acne scars, surgical scars, and injury scars.
Stretch Marks (Striae): Can improve the appearance and texture of both new and old stretch marks.
Hands: To improve skin thickness and reduce visible signs of aging.
How Can Medical-Grade Microneedling Transform Your Skin?
Microneedling is one of the most versatile treatments for improving overall skin quality and specific concerns:
Minimizing the appearance of scars (acne scars, surgical scars).
Reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
Improving skin texture and firmness (skin tightening).
Diminishing the visibility of large pores.
Evening out skin tone and reducing hyperpigmentation.
Increasing the absorption and efficacy of skincare products.
The Nurse Reine Specialized Process:
At Luníc, we ensure your Microneedling experience is both comfortable and effective:
Pre-Treatment Comfort: A topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area to ensure a comfortable experience, especially when treating deeper concerns.
Targeted Depth: Nurse Reine uses a professional device to precisely control the depth of the needles (from superficial to deeper dermal levels), customizing the treatment for different areas of your face or body and addressing specific concerns like deep scars or fine lines.
Serums Infusion: The micro-channels created by the needles significantly enhance the penetration of specialized serums (such as Hyaluronic Acid or PRP/PRF if requested), maximizing the rejuvenating effects.
