About microneedles
Microneedling in its current form started to gain prominence in the late 1990’s when a plastic surgeon described how he treated post surgical scars with a tattoo gun (with the ink removed). Fast forward a few decades and not only are microneedles used for skin antiaging, reducing facial hyperpigmentation and managing acne, but also (in the case of dissolving microneedles) for delivery of medications.
More recently micro needling has been used for the efficient delivery of skincare ingredients. The benefits of delivery ingredients through dissolving microneedles rather than traditional creams or serums include; more efficient delivery of actives to the skin for improved results and also the delivery of large molecular weight active ingredients past the stratum corneum which would otherwise block their absorption by the skin.
