Nanoneedling for Lips and Eyes
Nanoneedling is a gentle, non-invasive alternative to microneedling that uses a cartridge with 32 ultra-fine nano needles to stimulate circulation, support collagen production, and enhance product absorption. The result is smoother, brighter, more radiant-looking skin with little to no downtime.
Nanoneedling is especially well suited for delicate areas, including the under-eye area and lips, where a gentle approach is ideal.
How does it work?
The tiny needles create microchannels in the outer layer of the skin (epidermis). These microchannels trigger the skin’s natural healing response, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin.
As collagen and elastin levels increase, the skin becomes firmer and smoother over time, helping to gradually reduce the appearance of scars and wrinkles.
This treatment can be performed on the face, neck, scalp, stomach, thighs, and arms.
Three Phases of the Wound-Repair Process
Phase 1: Inflammation occurs when the skin is pierced, activating the immune system to clean the wound, remove debris, increase blood flow, and begin forming new tissue.
Phase II: Proliferation: The skin begins rebuilding the wound with new granulation tissue, an essential part of the healing process.
Phase III: Remodeling: The wound is renewed with new dermal tissue and blood vessels as the skin continues to heal and strengthen.
The Addition of Acupuncture
Full-body acupuncture and facial microneedling complement each other by working from both the inside and outside: acupuncture helps improve circulation, reduce inflammation, balance stress responses, and support overall body function, while microneedling stimulates collagen and skin renewal directly in the face.
Together, they may enhance healing, improve skin tone and elasticity, reduce tension that contributes to aging, and support a healthier, more radiant appearance more effectively than either treatment alone. They are paired because acupuncture can promote relaxation and systemic recovery, which may help optimize the skin’s response to the controlled repair process triggered by microneedling.
