Microneedling

Every skin care professional would tell you about the many benefits of microneedling. Microneedling is a process of puncturing the skin using tiny sterile needles, causing the deeper layer of the skin called derma to be rebuilt and rejuvenated. Facial microneedling, also known as the vampire facial, helps boost collagen and this is why it is called collagen induction therapy (CIT).
