Collagen Induction Therapy - CIT (Microneedling)
 

CIT is also known as collagen induction therapy or Microneedling. The pen moves across the skin, needling the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production.

This “damage” to the dermis encourages the body to produce more new collagen and elastin which generates new skin cells to literally “repair” itself, therefore making the skin more plump and youthful looking.

The channels made from the micro-needles allow serums etc to be absorbed more effectively through the top layer of skin. The vitamins will be punched into the skin during the treatment

Your skin will appear to be visibly healed after 24-48 hours but the healing process is continuously happening for some time afterwards. This natural healing process is what makes the treatment so effective.

After a few months, this new collagen will start to shorten. This leads to the slow tightening of the skin.  Over time this healing process will lead to the formation of a thick layer of collagen, healthy elastin and improved blood flow at the initial injury site.

​

CIT is designed to treat various skin conditions such as fine lines and wrinkles, scarring from acne and photo damage, improves skin colour and other skin texture changes.

• Smoothing out and treatment of fine lines and wrinkles.

• Smoothing out of scars, e.g. reduction of scars caused by acne.

• Increasing firmness and elasticity of skin when the skin has lost laxity.

• Rejuvenation of the skin when it has lost lustre and radiance.
