Microneedling in Gig Harbor, WA

microneedling

Microneedling is an aesthetic treatment that uses fine needles to create microscopic punctures in the skin. It is used to improve the appearance of wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, and other skin imperfections. By creating tiny wounds, microneedling encourages the body's natural healing processes which can lead to improved collagen production for a more even complexion.  

At Apollo Health, our microneedling treatments are designed to provide maximum results with minimal discomfort. We use a sterile, single-use cartridge that creates microscopic punctures while delivering serum deep into the skin tissue. This helps to increase collagen production and smooth fine lines while also stimulating the growth of new blood vessels. The result is a healthier, more youthful complexion.

One of the major benefits of microneedling is that it can be used safely on almost any skin type and texture, including sensitive skin. It's a great way to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, scars, age spots, sun damage, and other signs of aging without resorting to aggressive treatments like chemical peels or laser resurfacing. In addition, it can help to reduce the appearance of large pores and improve overall skin tone and texture.
