Microneedling
Microneedling, also referred to as percutaneous collagen induction (PCI), is a non-surgical facial treatment that utilizes ultra-fine sterile needles to create tiny punctures in the skin. This process stimulates a natural healing response, fostering collagen production and enhancing overall skin quality.
The Candela Exceed device offers unparalleled versatility, being the first dual-indicated, FDA-cleared medical microneedling system for treating both facial wrinkles and acne scars. Each session with the Exceed device delivers powerful results with minimal downtime.
Before the treatment:
Discontinue anticoagulant therapy, aspirin, or high doses of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) a minimum of 14 days prior to treatment.
Discontinue topical retinoids or other skin irritants at least 3 to 5 days before treatment. Use a sunblock of SPF 30 or higher.
Avoid prolonged or excessive sun exposure.
How does Exceed Microneedling work?
Our bodies possess innate processes that respond to injury by generating new cells and extracellular materials, such as elastin and collagen, to heal. The Candela Exceed medical device harnesses this natural mechanism by creating hundreds of temporary micro-sized openings in the skin with its finely-tuned microneedling pen. These openings are achieved using the Exceed's disposable needle cartridge, without the need for thermal energy or chemicals.
Benefits and Considerations:
Visible improvement in skin texture and tone, with noticeable changes as early as one week post-treatment.
Side effects akin to a mild sunburn, such as redness, tenderness, and swelling, are typically transient.
Healing times, discomfort, and treatment outcomes can vary among individuals.
