Aging doesn’t always feel good. With extra candles on the birthday cake comes a loss of collagen and an increase in fine lines. But remember, age also brings balance and wisdom. Hence, we know that there is no better way to stimulate collagen and elastin other than to trigger our body’s own cells into make these! At Skinlogic we use combinations of Dermapen® microneedling, PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) and LED (Light Emitting Diodes) to treat common skin problems like stretch marks, aging, wrinkles, fine lines, hair loss, acne scars, hyperpigmentation and so much more.
DERMAPEN® (Microneedling)
This microneedling device works on the principle that when you hurt yourself, your skin will initiate skin repair by stimulating Growth Factors. This will lead to the generation of new collagen and elastin. In the same way, micro punctures made by Derma pen’s very tiny needles trick the skin into producing collagen and elastin to promote ‘healing’. The effect will be a beautifully rejuvenated skin.
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma)
With PRP therapy, we use Growth Factors from your own blood to stimulate collagen and elastin formation. When PRP is used with Dermapen®, it supercharges microneedling benefits. PRP also addresses under-eye puffiness and dark circles to give you a more youthful, well-rested appearance.
LED (Light Emitting Diode)
Originally this light treatment was developed to improve wound healing. Skin rejuvenation of healthy skin was a happy coincidence. LED works by converting light energy into ATP (adenosine triphosphate). ATP is the fuel that the fibroblast cells use to produce collagen and elastin. Thus, LED gives the fibroblasts a ‘full tank of fuel’ to start producing new collagen and elastin.
