FAQ
Microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy) is a non-surgical and non-ablative procedure used to treat various skin conditions such as aging, scarring, hyperpigmentation, cellulite, and hair loss.
The microneedling treatment is done using the Eclipse Micropen by EVO. This automated microneedling tool is innovative to the world of medical aesthetics. Microneedling tools are made up of small needles that gently puncture the skin to create small, controlled wounds. These small wounds are unnoticeable, but the skin recognizes the need to heal itself, triggering the production of collagen. The increase of collagen production helps smooth out scars, fine lines, wrinkles, etc.
