Health Benefits Of Microneedling

Reduces Hyperpigmentation And Age Spots

Evidence also indicates microneedling reduces hyperpigmentation and age spots, as it safely penetrates the top layer of skin, causing the old tissues to shed and generating new ones. Hyperpigmentation is the outcome of excessive levels of melanin, the pigments that give the skin its color. When hyperpigmentation occurs, dark patches (age spots) form. Hyperpigmentation can develop as the result of an injury, which can lead to inflammation, thus causing dark spots. Prolonged exposure to the sun is another cause for hyperpigmentation.

A recent evaluation study shows participants saw great improvement in hyperpigmentation following microneedling treatment. The participants possessed dark skin shades, which worsened their condition. Final results were assessed four weeks following initial treatment. A 2015 review revealed melasma patients undergoing microneedling treatment helped reduce the appearance of their dark spots. Treatment was performed using a 1.5-millimeter needle. With that, the participants used a depigmentation formula and tinted sunscreen with an SPF of sixty following the first procedure.
