The compound applied to the skin is hyaluronic acid moisturizes the skin, restores its internal environment and helps maintain natural functions in the skin. Vitamins and inorganic salts improve microcirculation, cellular respiration, and nutrient exchange. It also contains amino acids which are the building blocks for synthesis of protein structures inside existing cells, as well as for creation of new cells. DMAE also stimulates the activity of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts, promoting growth of new cells.
What Can I Expect Post A Microneedling Treatment?
The inflammatory reaction of the skin is extremely short and fades significantly within hours from redness to pinkish that may last for 12 to 48 hours. In order to reduce visible redness, we recommend hyaluronic acid after the procedure, and to protect the skin with zinc based sunblock. The use of mineral makeup is recommended after procedure.
