Overview

Micro-Needling Treatment for Stretch Marks
 

Medical Micro-Needling, also referred to as Collagen Induction Therapy, is a break through remedy for the treatment of wrinkles and pigmentation, scars (including burn scars, acne scars and surgical scars) and stretch marks. This revolutionary celebrity treatment popular with Angelina Jolie and Demi Moore, has now been made available at Therapie clinics throughout Ireland.

Clinical studies have shown that micro needling produces channels in dermis which sufficiently stimulate the body’s natural defenses to repair and produce concentrated amounts of collagen and proteins to the treated areas of skin. This results in the skins thickness being increased by up to 80% smoothing scars, visibly reducing stretch marks and erasing wrinkles.

FAQ's

What areas can be treated with Micro-Needling?

Stretch Marks – Acne Scars – Burn Scars – Wrinkles – Pigmentation – Skin resurfacing

The treatment introduces fine needles into the skin to create microscopic channels. In doing so the dermis is encouraged to produce new collagen and elastin which generates new skin cells to repair itself. The skin then becomes thicker, plumper and more youthful. Serums that are applied to the skin afterwards are also up to 1000 more effective as the pores on the skin are opened and the product is absorbed deeper into the skin.

Q. Is there any down time and does it hurt?

A. There is very little down time, your skin will look and feel mildly sunburnt for about 24 hours after the treatment and could start to flake slightly the next day. This is a normal reaction and results will become visible from 1 week after your treatment. We use numbing cream on sensitive areas like the face so there is no pain involved in the treatment.

Q. Are there any side effects?

A. Some immediate side effects include redness, flaking, mild irritation on the treated areas but all of these effects subside within 24-72 hours and can vary from person to person.

Q. How many treatments will I need? how long do the treatments take?

A. To see significant results, we recommend a course of 4-6 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart.

Q. How much does it cost?

A. It starts from just €199 per treatment.
