Percutaneous Collagen Induction Therapy, or microneedling, applies the principle of direct dermal stimulation to reactivate the production of endogenous collagen. Microneedling makes a series of tiny holes, as a hand-held roller is rolled over the affected area. It can be administered in combination with other medical products depending on the condition being treated.
The excellent results obtained with this technique have revolutionized the treatment of many challenging conditions without the need for surgery.
Stretch marks
At last there is an effective treatment for one of our worst enemies: stretch marks. Until very recently, it seemed that there was no solution for these unsightly blemishes; but now, using Percutaneous Collagen Induction Therapy, at our aesthetic medicine centre in Barcelona we are able to reduce their intensity by around 70%.
Cellulitis
Cellulite is produced by the combination of sagging skin and the accumulation of water, fat and toxins. Using Collagen Induction Therapy at our Maresme centre, we can activate the collagen and tighten the skin in the affected areas. The smoothening of the skin is noticeable from the very first session.
In most cases, as well as applying the collagen induction technique in the area with cellulitis, we carry out a general treatment to help eliminate liquids and waste.
Sagging skin
As we grow older, the skin becomes distended; significant weight loss can cause sagging, as the skin loses its ability to retract spontaneously with the loss of body volume. Collagen Induction Therapy at our Barcelona centre helps to recover body tone and is an effective therapeutic option in patients who do not want to undergo surgery.
Wrinkles and loose facial skin
Did you know that the skin’s collagen content decreases by 1% per year? Over the years, this disappearance of elastin and collagen in the skin leads to the appearance of wrinkles as the facial contour loses its shape and firmness. Collagen Induction Therapy at our Barcelona centre stimulates the production of collagen and elastin by the skin cells, favouring their natural process of repair and helping to recover the contour and tone of your face.
Scars
Collagen Induction Therapy effectively reduces the appearance of scars by increasing the proportion of collagen fibres.
Dark spots
Collagen Induction Therapy offers an ideal solution for dark spots on the skin, by helping to regulate the production of melanin.
Hair loss
Percutaneous Collagen Induction Therapy increases the absorption of products applied to the scalp, optimizing their effectiveness and favouring their penetration.
