Microneedling treatments such as DermaRoller were a huge seller in 2017 and will continue to be sought after in 2018. Microneedling reduces thinning, sagging skin, and facial wrinkles from the loss of elastin and collagen. This treatment also works wonders at reducing acne scars.
Microneedling, also referred to as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) creates tiny puncture wounds in the top layer of the skin which triggers the body to create new collagen and elastin. These needled channels also allow an increase in permeability that is hundreds of times the usual amount that topical products can penetrate the skin. Depending on the desired result, whether erasing pigmented spots or wrinkles, thickening thin skin, or lessening acne scarring, using the appropriate topical serums and creams following your treatment can accelerate the results dramatically.
That is why we created our DermaMD post Microneedling Repair Kits consisting of 15ml syringes of each Matrixyl 3000, Vitamin C+Resveratrol, Copper and Ultra Shield SPF 30. The 4 syringes are an easy way to keep germs and bacteria out of your post care products and easily push out the perfect amount. Adding these 4 items post treatment will visibly optimize your results.
Matrixyl 3000 is created from the powerful peptides palmitoyl-tripeptide and palmitoyl-oligopeptide. These 2 peptides work synergistically to mimic the appearance of broken down collagen. When your body notices there is broken down collagen in the skin, it responds by making more collagen along with elastin. Adding Matrixyl 3000 to your skin post Microneedling will penetrate deeply to speed up the collagen (thickness of skin) and elastin (elasticity of skin) creation.
Vitamin C+Resveratrol are potent antioxidants. Vitamin C is particularly effective in diminishing the look of fine lines, wrinkles, and helps to improve uneven skin tone and brighten dull skin so it’s more radiant and youthful. When applied topically, vitamin C has been proven to preserve skin’s resiliency so it takes on a firmer feeling and smoother appearance. Like most antioxidants, vitamin C can also calm and help hydrate skin which makes it perfect for post microneedling.
Resveratrol is an unsurpassed antioxidant that provides firming and anti-aging benefits. Applied topically, resveratrol helps protect skin’s surface by keeping out negative environmental influences and brightens a tired-looking complexion. It also has significant skin-calming properties that may help minimize the look of redness after microneedling.
Copper is an important topical cream to use after microneedling. Why? Copper peptides possess anti-inflammatory qualities to treat, heal and hydrate a wide range of skin irritations. It promotes the production of skin-plumping hyaluronic acid and keeps skin firm, soft and flexible, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
The final item in our Microneedling Repair Kit is DermaMD's Ultra Shield SPF 30. If you want to preserve (and even improve) your beautiful self, use DermaMD's SPF 30, no excuses, every day. People with sun damaged skin (which includes all of us) who started using a broad spectrum sunscreen later in life saw a noticeable reduction in every visible sign of aging. No matter your age, daily sunscreen use is the foundation of a brilliant anti-aging skincare routine.
After your microneedling treatment, make sure you get the best results for your money by using our DermaMD Microneedling Repair Kit.
