Is microneedling the best treatment for wrinkles?

03 Dec

Since virtually the beginning of recorded history, mankind has searched for ways to fight visible signs of aging. From Cleopatra’s milk and rose petal baths to modern day lasers, we simply want to have fewer wrinkles, and glowing complexions with refined skin texture. Is microneedling the best treatment for this? The experts at EsthetixMD Spa & Laser Center in Bend, OR explain.

Collagen induction therapy

Collagen is the primary structural protein in skin. It is largely responsible for the thickness, elasticity, and tautness of youthful skin. Our bodies produce less collagen as we age. At the same time, cumulative sun exposure and other environmental factors break down existing collagen. Skin becomes thinner, dryer, dull, and lax, sagging into wrinkles and folds.

Microneedling is also known as collagen induction therapy or CIT. Hair fine needles penetrate the skin at a carefully controlled depth. These microscopic columns into the dermis stimulate the body’s natural healing processes, chiefly the production of fresh collagen.

Benefits of microneedling

Takes less than an hour.
No anesthesia is needed.
Skin is temporarily pink, but there is no downtime.
Improvement becomes apparent over the course of several weeks, as collagen builds.
A series of microneedling treatments addresses fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, and acne scarring.
Periodic re-treatment maintains fresh, radiant skin.

Comprehensive care

The EsthetixMD Spa & Laser Center never takes a “one size fits all” approach. The process begins with an unhurried consultation to understand your concerns and goals, followed by a thorough examination of your skin. Then we create a customized strategy for wrinkles and overall skin rejuvenation. Perhaps one of the biggest advantages of microneedling is how well it integrates with other treatments. CIT nicely complements Botox and injectable fillers, and extends the benefits of laser therapies and even cosmetic surgery.

I can’t say enough good things about EsthetixMD. I came in for a Madonna Eye Lift and Coolpeel combo. I felt so safe and protected entering the building. My provider, Allison was so sweet, professional and amazing. Allison prepped me on what to expect during and after. I was provided post care and given skin care options. I am absolutely delighted with the results. I’ve already booked another! Thank you EsthetixMD!

This staff is amazing! They bent over backwards to make my experience comfortable and professional. They were warm, caring and accommodating. Allison is not only caring but she dials you in on the best possible solution for your skin. The front office staff is the same way. I can not recommend them enough. They go the extra mile.

I see Dr. Covey for dermal filler and Botox. She is brilliant, she educates me all the way through the treatment, she does her best to minimize any pain, and I always look and feel terrific afterwards. The clinic is professional, and staff is very pleasant. Check in and out is easy. I would recommend the clinic to anyone who wants beautiful skin, expert treatment and loving care. Also, the range of treatments available for face and body is impressive.

Ultra Femme 360 does what it claims. Don’t be afraid to try it. Yes it is an investment but it is worth it. Allison is very professional and makes the awkwardness just go away. If you are wondering what to expect while in the room it’s similar to a well women visit only the benefits are outstanding. Instead of feeling like I need to treat myself to a nice lunch and glass of wine after going through the whole pap experience I am planning a date night.

“Love working with Nicholas! He introduced the PFD patch for laser tattoo removal which allows for multiple laser passes instead of only one pass. It’s incredible how much the new patch will speed up removing my tattoos!”
