Skin Needling-Safely And Effectively Get Rid Of Fine Lines And Wrinkles
What is Automated Micro-Needling?
Automated Micro-Needling (also known as Collagen Induction Therapy) has similar results to laser, chemical peels and other Dermabrasion but with the less damage to the epidermis. This is a new innovation in aesthetic medicine for the treatment of fine lines, acne scars and improvement of the skin’s overall appearance. During this procedure, tiny needles are used to create controlled micro-intrusion into the skin in order to produce collagen and elastin. The skin’s repair process results in a thicker dermis with the appearance of softer wrinkles. Eclipse Micropen ™ also creates superficial micro-channels, which allow topical gels, creams and serums to be absorbed more effectively into the skin.
- Wrinkling and fine lines
- Increase in collagen
- Acne scarring
- Uneven skin texture
- Follicular scarring (‘enlarged pores’)
- Skin rejuvenation – anti ageing
- Surgical scars on the face and body
- Large scars such as C-Section scars
- Accidental and traumatic scars
The benefits of micro needling are a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, younger-looking skin with fewer signs of aging. Eclipse Micropen ™ also has a positive effect on hyper-pigmentation as well as on hypo-pigmentation, acne scars, traumatic scars and stretch marks and generally creates a fresher appearance or glow to the skin.
Eclipse Micropen ™ can be used on all parts of the body;
Face, Forehead, between eyes and nose, smiles lines side of eyes, upper lip, marionette lines, chin, cheek acne zone, nasolabial folds, neck, body
A sterile needle-tip containing 12 tiny micro-needles is attached to the Eclipse Micropen ™. Your skincare professional will apply a thin layer of topical gel to your skin and select the appropriate treatment depth based on your unique needs. Next, in a single motion, the pen will be gently pressed against the skin while simultaneously gliding in one direction until the entire treatment area has been covered.
The feeling associated with the Eclipse Micropen ™ is similar to light sandpaper being moved across the skin. While some areas are more sensitive than others, the speed of the reciprocating needle tip reduces discomfort while the applied hydrating gel also makes the treatment more tolerable.
The procedure takes 15-30 minutes depending on the size of the area treated.
Immediately after the treatment you will notice a bright redness to the skin.
The total healing time depends on the depth of needles used and the number of overlapping passes your skincare professional performs. On average, patients are red up to 2 to 4 days. Some patients heal completely in as little as 24 hours. Utilizing the Eclipse Skin Revive System ™, or other quality skincare products, provided by your skincare provider, can help to speed up the healing process.
Patients notice an immediate “glow” to their skin. Visible changes to the skin develop over the course of several days and weeks. Results continue to improve up to 6 months after the treatment as collagen production continues.
Some patients only require a single treatment, once per year to achieve optimal results. However, it is recommended for most patients to receive a series of 2-3 treatments spaced about 6-8 weeks apart. For patients with deep wrinkles, advanced photo-aging, stretch marks or acne scars it is recommended to receive 6-8 sessions at 6-week intervals.
