Microneedling Atlanta

Hi, this is Dr Kelley. I'd like to tell you a little bit about Microneedling and why we offer this procedure at our office. Microneedling is the use of a device to push product deep into the skin. The epidermis is meant to be a barrier that is protective of our bodies. When products applied into the epidermis, it is very difficult for them to penetrate and in order for them to be true change in the skin, the product does need to get down to the dermis. Microneedling options include manual stamps, dermal rollers and also delivery systems. We have used all of them in our office and we've found the most effective way to deliver the products with microneedling is to use an automated microneedling pen. The pen has multiple needles. The needles are able to penetrate. We are able to adjust the depth of penetration according to the area of the face. For example, the skin underneath the eyes is thinner than the skin on the cheeks. So there is an adjustment in the depth. The actual needle can help with stimulating collagen and then the products that we put on top are being push into the layers in the skin also can help with the pigment, help with tightening, help with acne scars. Some examples of products that can be used with the microneedling device include growth factors, Platelet rich plasma (PRP), vitamin C, products that help with reducing hyper pigmentation and other products that help with hydrating the skin. Microneedling is a great tool to be able to deliver active ingredient to the deeper areas of the skin in order to really affect change in the skin. We'd like to talk to you some more if you have any questions about Microneedling or any of our other procedures.
