How It Works
Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves using a device with very fine needles to puncture the skin. This creates numerous controlled micro-channels which trigger the non-emergency wound healing processes of the skin, resulting in a clearer complexion.

How It Feels
The Twist is the only microneedling system on the market that is equipped with the Active Needle Retrieval Technology (ANR). This means the motor behind the needles not only pushes them into the skin, but actively pulls them out. ( as opposed to other microneedling devices that use passive, spring based needle retrieval

What to Expect After Treatment

During this time it is also advised to avoid hot showers, exercise, saunas & hot tubs.
*Full aftercare instructions will be provided after treatment.

Are The Results Immediate?
You will notice some results days after your first session. However, the healing process is completed after 4-6 weeks and collagen remodeling can linger for months. Most people see the best effect from the treatment after 4-6 weeks. The results are not immediate but definitely worth the wait!
3-6 treatments are recommended for optimal results spaced 4-6 weeks apart. This can vary on each individual
