Microneedling and Nanoneedling
Micro needling
- Microneedling Therapy also called Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), and Percutaneous (through the skin) Collagen Induction (PCI), is a minimally invasive skin-rejuvenation procedure that involves the use of the MD Needle Pen.
- The mechanical action of the pen allows the needles to puncture the skin and create a controlled injury at a specific depth. Each puncture creates a channel that triggers the bodies natural healing process to fill these micro wounds by producing new collagen and elastin in the papillary dermis. In addition, new capillaries are formed for improved blood supply.
- With Microneedling, the top layer of the skin is parted without being damaged, leaving the skin intact. It does not “burn” your skin like peels or more invasive lasers. The needle penetration depth can be adjusted from 0.25mm to 2.50mm into the skin depending on the area of the body and the skin condition being treated. Using skin needling consistently will trigger the bodies repair process until the desired level of skin rejuvenation is achieved.
- Microneedling results in the production of new collagen and elastin, improvement in skin tone and texture, firmness as well as reduction in scars, pore size, and stretch marks.

- Microneedling of the scalp to promote hair growth is a procedure that is increasing in popularity and could prove particularly beneficial for those suffering from progressive types of hair loss such as androgenic alopecia (male pattern baldness) which affects both men and women.
- The stimulation of collagen and elastin helps improve blood circulation in the scalp, delivering essential nutrients and oxygen to the hair follicles. This, in turn, encourages the revitalization of weakened or dormant hair follicles, promoting hair regrowth and reducing hair thinning or loss.
- One of the key reasons why microneedling is effective in combating hair loss is its ability to stimulate the WNT-pathway. This pathway, which begins to decline in men as early as 24 years of age, plays a crucial role in cell-to-cell communication, facilitating nutrient transmission and manufacturing between cells. As this pathway shrinks, it limits the signals between cells, leading to a reduced supply chain of vital nutrients. Microneedling can help expand the WNT-Pathway, thereby reestablishing the connection between cellular powerhouses and receptors. This treatment can be performed as a standalone procedure or in combination with medications and regenerative therapies.
- At Skinolgy+ we use professional serums especially designed to enhance and boost the microneedling effect on hair growth. We combine the microneedling therapy with light therapy. We also add a high potency herbal serum to take-home as well as a traditional Chinese herbal formula. The maintenance "Home-Work" requires minimal effort.

Microneedling Combination Procedures
- Microneedling can be used in combination with Hyaluronic Acid and other serums to hydrate and heal the skin.
- The micro-channels created by the needles allow for deeper penetrations of topical serums for more effective results. This procedure can increase the skins ability to utilize the nutrients by up to 3,000 %.
- Combination of microneedling with our gentle but powerful peelings is a perfect way to optimize and enhance the healing and rejuvenating effects. The Celestetic Professional peels 2.0 we use are especially designed to be used prior to the microneedling procedure.
- Beyond the wonderful effects of microneedling. here at Skinology+ we also offer treatments for Acne, Rosacea, Alopecia and other dermatological disorders. We also offer treatments reducing scar tissue disturbance. Scars from portals, surgery and injuries can cause a physiological and energetic disturbance field.Using our powerful peels and microneedling serums can significantly reduce the appearance of scars as well as neutralizing the anatomical and energetic disturbances.
- Microneedling is done once a month. We combine this procedure with nanoneedling (can be applied 1-2 times a week) to boost and enhance the insertion of the serums into the skin. This will result in quicker results. We recommend this combination at the beginning of your journey.
Nano needling
- Nano-needling works a little different. It does use the same type of oscillating motion to treat the skin but the cartridge encompasses 81 silicone tips.
- These microscopic hair-like cones separate the cells within the epidermis to allow active products to be pushed into the skin. Nano needling only affects the epidermis, treating within the upper .15 mm of the skin.
- The benefits of this serum infusion treatment include pigmentation reduction, increased cell turnover, skin rejuvenation and an immediate glow with no downtime. This treatment can be done weekly to exfoliate the skin.
- We can apply nanoneedling once or twice a week. This will boost the effects of the microneedling, or, be used as a stand-alone treatment modality (for very sensitive clients).
- Nanoneedling can be used directly on the affected skin and scars in order to insert the serum directly into the area of concern. (microneedling is not applied on raised or infected skin).
