Microneedling
What is Microneedling?
Microneedling is an advanced rejuvenation treatment that works by creating multiple superficial wounds to the face to release growth factors that stimulate fibroblasts enhancing collagen and elastin production. It is a safe and effective method of scar revision, improving the appearance of pigmentation, rosacea, anti-aging, hair loss and stretch marks.
At Jas Sanghera Aesthetics and skin clinic this treatment includes a luxurious hydrating bubble mask and can also be combined with a chemical skin peel or LED light therapy.
