The Benefits of Microneedling with Wrinkle Injections
When fine lines start appearing and you’re wanting to refresh the look of your skin, anti wrinkle injections are one of the most popular treatments for achieving the results you want. But did you know that pairing them with microneedling can increase your results even better?
At our clinic in Bellshill, we’re big believers in bespoke treatment plans that suit your skin, your goals and your lifestyle. More and more people today are choosing to combine microneedling with wrinkle-relaxing injections. Combining these two treatments get rid of fine lines, boost collagen production and give the skin a refreshed and more youthful look. Let’s look at why these two treatments complement each other so well.
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling, known as collagen induction therapy, is a treatment that uses little needles to pierce the skin. This procedure starts the body’s natural healing process, enabling collagen and elastin production.
It’s a great treatment for improving skin texture, tone and elasticity as well as being suitable for most skin types. A lot of people are very fond of microneedling for its ability to soften acne scarring, minimise pore size, and give the skin a smoother, brighter appearance.
What can Wrinkle Injections Do?
Wrinkle injections, also known as botulinum toxins are made to soften certain muscles in the face, reducing the appearance of fine lines caused by the expressions we make.
These are most likely used on the forehead, around the eyes and in-between the eyebrows. They don’t affect the skin’s surface directly, which is why using them with a skin-focused treatment like microneedling makes a lot of sense.
How the Combination Works
Microneedling and anti wrinkle injections have their own advantages but when brought together, they provide a more enhanced skin rejuvenation technique.
- Targeting Different Layers: Anti wrinkle injections work on the muscles underneath the skin, while microneedling smooths over the skin’s surface. When used together, they take on both the cause and the visibility of wrinkles.
- Boosting Collagen: Microneedling maintains long-term collagen production, which helps prolong the results of your injections and improves overall skin health.
- Natural-Looking Results:
Using both of these treatments doesn’t freeze your facial features or overfill your face. Instead, it leaves you looking more refreshed, rested and have a more glowing appearance.
What is the Best Timing?
We would recommend spacing these the treatments out slightly. Microneedling can cause sensitive skin for a moment of time, so we’d usually suggest having this treatment first then book yourself in for anti-wrinkle injections around two weeks later. This gives your skin time to heal and ensures both treatments work to their full potential.
Is It Right For You?
If you’re searching for a treatment plan that radiates your natural beauty and provides long term skin health benefits, this combination could be ideal for you, offering visible results without looking obvious.
