Also known as microneedling, collagen induction therapy (CIT) is a minimally-invasive treatment that helps stimulate existing collagen and elastin. It is a great rejuvenating treatment for a number of skin conditions. Here are a few reasons why you should give it a try!
Your Skin Repairs Itself!
The tiny punctures from the Dermal Pen’s microneedles encourage your body to produce new collagen and elastin to generate new skin cells to repair your skin. The treated skin looks more youthful as it becomes thicker and plumper. CIT can also be used on all skin types.
CIT Can Be Used Anywhere on Your Body
Collagen induction therapy is primarily used on the face. But it can also be used on other parts of your body. If you have stretch marks on your abdomen or thighs, CIT can help minimize their appearance.
Reduce Appearance of Common Signs of Aging
By stimulating your body’s natural collagen production, CIT can reduce the appearance of:
- Fine lines
- Wrinkles
- Skin laxity
- Age/sun spots
- Large pores
CIT can also be used to repair skin that has been scarred by acne and some other types of scarring.
A Natural and Gradual Healing Process
Some patients may see noticeable results after their first CIT treatment. However, it could take between four to eight weeks to see visible signs of skin regeneration. To achieve optimum results, a program of two to five treatments spaced 2-3 months apart may be recommended.
