THE TRUTH ABOUT MICRONEEDLING
By: Tysen Julian For more beauty tips please visit: Tysen Julian’s!Beauty and Skincare Website !
Microneedling is hot these days and for good reason: It stimulates
collagen to give you better-looking skin on every level. Whether done at
home or by a professional, there’s still a lot out there that’s not that cut
and dry. That’s why we decided to set the record straight on these
misconceptions.
Myth: What your doctor uses on your skin is exactly the same as what you can use yourself at home.
Fact: This couldn’t be further from the truth. Doctors
always have access to stronger medical grade versions that
aren’t safe and acceptable for at home use. If you have
microneedling done at your doctor’s office, expect to get
the state-of-the-art new radiofrequency microneedling or
microneedling pens; at home you can only get microneedle
rollers.
Myth: Microneedling Hurts
Fact: While microneedling does create a controlled injury in the
skin to incite collagen production and does it by creating
microscopic holes, the holes it creates are so tiny that they can’t be
seen by the naked eye. You may notice more of a red or pink flush
to the skin, which will dissipate soon afterwards, and potentially
some bleeding. No need to worry, it’s totally normal. Plus, makeup
can easily cover up anything that you don’t want exposed.
Myth: The treatment can’t be done around the eyes or lips.
Fact: Thanks to advancements in both science and skin
care, microneedling can safely be done in these areas as
long as the right device is used. Companies like Environ,
which manufacture microneedling tools, have specially
designed rollers that can be used on the upper eyelid, close
to the eyelashes of the lower lid, the areas on the side of the
nose and the upper lip.
Myth: The only benefit you’ll get from microneedling is an anti-aging one.
Fact: Sure, the treatment works on an anti-aging level to
create smoother skin but it has been shown to be effective
in correcting acne marks, too. The microneedles stimulate
collagen production to help with scarring—when retinoids
and other collagen stimulating topicals are applied to the
skin after a treatment they are able to penetrate better for
more improvement.
