Microneedling
The Path to Youthful Skin

Microneedling is an innovative skin rejuvenation treatment that I offer at my beauty institute in Basel. This technique uses ultra-fine needles to create controlled micro-lesions in the skin. This process stimulates natural collagen and elastin production, leading to improved skin appearance.

History of Microneedling

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, has its roots in dermatological research of the 1990s. The development of this innovative technique can be summarized as follows:

• 1995: Dr. Desmond Fernandes develops the first microneedling device in South Africa
• Early 2000s: Further development and refinement of the technique
• 2006: Introduction of the electric microneedling pen
• 2010s: Growing popularity in aesthetic medicine worldwide

Since its introduction, microneedling has evolved into a popular treatment method for wrinkles and various skin concerns, continuously improved through new research and technologies.

Application and Process

The microneedling treatment is a relatively simple but precise procedure. Here's a typical sequence:

1. Cleansing and disinfection of the skin
2. Application of local numbing cream (optional)
3. Systematic treatment of the skin with the microneedling device
4. Adjustment of needle depth according to treatment area (0.5 - 2.5 mm)
5. Application of serums or active ingredients
6. Final care and sun protection

The treatment typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. For optimal results, several sessions are usually recommended at intervals of 4-6 weeks.

How It Works and Mechanisms

Microneedling uses the body's natural healing processes to improve skin quality. The mechanism is based on the following principles:

• Stimulation of collagen and elastin production
• Promotion of cell regeneration
• Improvement of blood circulation
• Enhanced absorption of active ingredients

The controlled micro-injuries activate the fibroblasts in the skin, leading to increased production of collagen and elastin. These proteins are essential for skin firmness and elasticity.

Benefits and Results

Microneedling offers numerous benefits for skin health and aesthetics:

• Reduction of fine lines and wrinkles
• Improvement of skin structure and texture
• Reduction of acne scars and hyperpigmentation
• Skin tightening and firming
• Refinement of pores
• Increased effectiveness of skincare products
