Skin Micro Stimulating: What the Treatment Involves
Skin micro stimulating is a non-surgical treatment that uses microneedling to create very small channels in the skin. At Ashbury Cosmetic, the treatment is combined with the topical application of an exosome solution.
The procedure may be considered by people seeking to address the appearance of fine lines, uneven texture, acne scarring, sun-related changes, or general skin condition. Suitability and expected outcomes vary, so an individual consultation is required before treatment.
What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling uses a handheld device fitted with fine, sterile needles. The device is moved across the selected area to create controlled microchannels in the skin.
These microchannels trigger the skin’s normal response to minor injury. The treatment is commonly used in cosmetic practice as part of programs focused on skin texture and the appearance of certain skin concerns.
The depth and settings used during treatment should be selected according to the treatment area, skin type, medical history, and individual needs.
What Are Exosomes?
Exosomes are very small particles that carry substances between cells. Ashbury Cosmetic’s treatment page describes its topical exosome solution as containing components such as growth factors, peptides, amino acids, and forms of hyaluronic acid.
During skin micro stimulating, the solution is applied after microneedling has created the small channels in the skin. This combination is referred to as exosome microneedling.
The ingredients used, how the product is regulated, and whether it is appropriate for a particular patient should be discussed during the consultation.
What Skin Concerns May Be Discussed?
Skin micro stimulating may be discussed as an option for concerns involving the appearance of:
- Fine lines
- Uneven skin texture
- Acne scarring
- Sun-related skin changes
- Dull or uneven-looking skin
- General skin condition
The procedure may not remove these concerns completely. The level of change varies between patients, and more than one treatment may be recommended.
Maintenance treatments may also be discussed depending on the patient’s skin, treatment plan, and response.
Who May Not Be Suitable?
Treatment may need to be delayed or avoided for people with certain health or skin conditions.
It is important to tell the practitioner about:
- Active skin infections or rashes
- Cold sores
- Eczema, psoriasis, or other skin conditions
- A history of raised or keloid scarring
- Bleeding or clotting conditions
- Medicines that affect bleeding
- Diabetes
- Immune system conditions
- Recent use of certain acne medicines
- Allergies or sensitivities
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Recent cosmetic or medical skin procedures
This list is not complete. Suitability must be assessed individually.
