Abstract
In this method, after preparing the skin for micro needling, small incisions are made on the skin and collagen production in the skin layers is stimulated with minor damage. The specialist uses a pen-like device to perform this treatment. This device creates small scratches in the layers of the skin and heals the skin. The size of the needles of this device is so small that you probably won't notice the wounds after the work is done. Before starting work, the specialist uses an anesthetic on the skin. You have to wait about 30 minutes for complete anesthesia. This treatment takes from 10 to 30 minutes. Today, 2 types of micro needling devices are available. These devices have improved over the years. The head of this device has many needles that penetrate the layers of the skin by moving on the face. With the introduction of the micro needling needle, the skin gradually tightens and its pores are closed. The more severe the skin damage, the more sessions this device should be used. This device does not exfoliate and the thickness of the skin does not change. No synthetic materials are used in this method. It is only the needles of the machine that make the change.
