Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin treatment that uses tiny needles to create controlled injuries in the skin. The procedure is also known as percutaneous collagen induction therapy or skin needling. 

Microneedling is used to treat a variety of skin conditions, including: 

• Acne scarring
• Surgical scars
• Wrinkles
• Stretch marks
• Enlarged pores
• Dull skin

The procedure works by stimulating the skin’s natural healing process, which produces more collagen and elastin. These proteins help keep skin firm and smooth. Microneedling can also help thicken the epidermis, which thins with age.
