Microneedling

Also known as collagen induction therapy, microneedling is a skin-renewal treatment designed to stimulate the skin's natural collagen production. It can help improve the appearance of fine lines, uneven texture, enlarged pores and overall skin quality.

                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

   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!

​

A series of 3-6 treatments may be recommended depending on your individual skin goals. Treatments are typically spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
