Microneedle-Based Energy Treatment in Singapore
A dermatological procedure that combines mechanical and thermal energy to support skin renewal
This treatment involves the use of fine needles combined with heat-based energy to reach deeper layers of the skin. It is offered as a non-surgical option for individuals seeking support for certain skin texture, tone, or firmness concerns. All treatments are provided in a medical setting by a registered dermatologist.
What Does This Treatment Involve?
This procedure combines two components:
- Microneedling: A device is used to create controlled micro-injuries in the outer layer of the skin.
- Energy Delivery: Thermal energy is introduced into deeper layers via the microchannels, which may assist with structural support in the skin.
Together, these mechanisms may help support collagen production and overall skin renewal over time.
What Conditions May Be Considered for This Treatment?
This treatment may be considered for:
- Mild skin laxity
- Fine lines or surface irregularities
- Acne-related scarring
- Enlarged pores
- Stretch marks
- General texture changes
It is commonly used on the face and neck but may also be applied to other areas as clinically appropriate.
