Addressing Signs of Aging with Micro-Needling in Chicago, IL

Lines and wrinkles can appear on the skin for a range of reasons. Some people develop noticeable blemishes as the result of environmental factors, stress, and the natural aging process. Sun damage is a very common culprit as well. If you are dealing with the common signs of aging on your skin, you may be able to dramatically improve the overall tone and balance of your complexion through micro-needling at our med spa in Chicago.

What is Micro-Needling?

Micro-needling is one of several popular cosmetic procedures that are designed to promote skin renewal. Countless studies have shown that affecting the surface of the skin in a certain way will invariably trigger the body’s natural healing response. Thus, in addition to removing damaged skin cells, this non-surgical treatment will encourage the proliferation of new and healthier skin cells. As these new cells replace the old ones, the skin will begin to look brighter, healthier, and much more even in overall tone.

Improve Your Skin Texture While Evening Out Your Skin Tone

Micro-needling treatments are effective for limiting the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, clearing up recent breakouts of blackheads and whiteheads, unclogging the pores, and diminishing the size of enlarged pores. Best of all, not only does micro-needling encourage the proliferation of new and healthier skin cells, but it can also create increases in collagenesis, or the body’s natural production of skin-supporting collagen. As such, these treatments often result in more supple and youthful-looking skin overall.

Are You a Good Candidate?

While micro-needling can be incredibly effective for minimizing the appearance of aging, these treatments are not the best solution for everyone. That’s why it’s so important to schedule a consultation with us in Chicago so that our team can determine whether or not the treatment is right for you. The best candidates for micro-needling procedures have conditions that micro-needling can treat. They also have realistic expectations regarding the treatment and the results.

You can learn more information about your candidacy for micro-needling during a consultation at aFresh® Med Spa & Plastic Surgery in Chicago. Contact our office today to schedule an appointment and get started!
