Give Your Skin
A Firm, Healthy
& Smooth Texture

 

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is increasingly in demand for skin repair. 

Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries that stimulate your body’s natural wound healing process, resulting in the effective remodeling of scar tissue, while keeping the overall structure of the skin intact.

 

The Procedure

Details

 

What Microneedling treats

Acne scarring       Fine lines and wrinkles
Loose skin             Skin texture
Pore size                Brown spots
Stretch marks       Pigment issues

Procedure time

Up to 60 minutes 

Recovery time 

Most of the recovery from microneedling happens 1-2 days after  treatment. You will continue to see improvements in your skin for up to two months following the procedure. 

 

Results

As soon as the deepest layers of your skin are penetrated by the needles, “micro-wounds” are created. This triggers your body's wound healing processes to heal your micro wounds immediately. However, the most dramatic results will not be visible until four to six weeks after treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

What Microneedling Treatments Do We Offer?

At BOYD we offer microneedling treatment through our unique skin MicroNeedle, the only FDA approved SkinPen from Bellus.

What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a minimally-invasive skin rejuvenation procedure that helps minimize signs of aging, stimulates the absorption of skincare products, and reduces the appearance of scars or stretch marks. Our top of the line devices cause controlled micro-injuries stimulating your body’s natural wound healing process, while keeping the overall structure of the skin intact.

Am I a Good Candidate for Microneedling?

We suggest microneedling for patients concerned with fine lines, wrinkles, large pores, irregular texture, or facial scarring.

What does the Microneedling Procedure Entail?

In order to trigger the body’s natural skin remodeling process, microneedling is done to increase epidermal thickness, stimulate the extracellular matrix, and reduce inflammation. Translation: Microneedles fool your body into sending more restorative collagens and elastin than the area needs. Revealing a more youthful glow, better absorption of products, and elimination of scars or stretchmarks.

What Will My Microneedling Results Be?

The microneedling process will reveal clearer, more even-toned skin, with lightened or entirely faded scars. On average, collagen induction requires at least 3 treatments, while scar reduction requires between 3 and 6 treatments. The number of treatments needed depends on individual cases.
