Microneedling
Microneedling
Microneedling is a type of collagen induction therapy that triggers the body’s natural healing response, stimulating the production of new collagen and elastin fibres. The result is tighter, more lifted skin.
How does Microneedling work?
Microneedling uses a derma roller or pen device with tiny sterile needles to create microscopic punctures in the skin’s surface. This minimally invasive treatment stimulates the body’s natural healing process, improving skin texture, tightening skin, and reducing the appearance of scars and wrinkles. At Este Dubai, microneedling options include Agnes RF, Exosomes Microneedling (PDRN Salmon DNA), and Morpheus8 for advanced skin rejuvenation.
