Microneedling

Micro-needling is an innovative treatment providing a solution to fine lines, wrinkles, scars and acne scars as well as improvement to the overall condition skin, tone and texture. It scientifically reduces fine lines, plumps facial volume and fades scarring using a method of introducing controlled trauma to the skin triggering release of growth factors, an increase in collagen production and elasticity in the skin.
The process involves using small needles to create tiny punctures in the skin which triggers the bodies natural wound healing response to renew skin cells, produce collagen and stimulate elastin.

Creating tiny punctures also creates superficial micro-channels, which allows topical serums, and creams to be absorbed more effectively into the skin.
The advanced medical-grade automated micro-needling devices used at Lucy Foster Aesthetics have a much higher success rate than previous generation roller needling. Traditional rollers have a fixed needle length or penetration depth meaning you can’t tailor the treatment to target different thickness of skin tissue like you can with an automated pen device. This will allows your aesthetician to properly address the specific needs of thinner skin on your lower eyelids, crow’s feet, and forehead or thicker skin of your upper lip, décolletage and cheeks.

The automated design also eliminates the ‘drag’ you get with a roller, protecting the new skin cell growth providing quicker healing.
The skin’s repair process results in a thicker dermis with the appearance of softer wrinkles, plumped skin and faded scars.
