Microneedling in Albuquerque, NM
Microneedling in Albuquerque, NM
Microneedling, a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation procedure, involves using a device like the Vistapen® to make tiny punctures in the skin’s top layer. This stimulates the body’s natural wound-healing mechanisms, increasing collagen production and cell turnover. Microneedling effectively treats various areas, including the face, neck, and décolletage. It suits individuals seeking to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines and scars, and enhance skin firmness. Typically, results become noticeable after a few weeks, with improvements continuing over several months. The longevity of the results varies but can last several months and be maintained with regular treatments.
