Microneedling for hyperpigmentation in Charlotte
Microneedling is a type of treatment used by Charlotte, NC dermatologists to treat many skin concerns. It can help eliminate wrinkles, reduce the appearance of scars and stretch marks, and even help treat hyperpigmentation.
Hyperpigmentation occurs when the pigment producing cells of the skin start to produce too much pigment. This can cause tan, brown, or gray patches on people’s skin. These skin patches can leave people feeling self conscious and impact their self esteem. One way to get rid of these spots is to use microneedling using Rejuvapen.
How it works
Microneedling can sound a little scary, after all, it has the word needle in it. But, this treatment is relatively pain free and quick. Here’s how it works.
The team at Dermatology Specialists of Charlotte use Rejuvapen to perform microneedling treatments. This pen utilizes precisely spaced micro needles in a small cartridge. These needles are rolled over the skin, creating micro perforations into the skin’s top layers. This triggers your skin to start repairing itself by producing collagen and elastin, which are what gives skin it’s firmness and elasticity. It is also something people start to lose as they age.
Charlotte, NC residents shouldn’t try to get rid of brown spots on their own. Instead, reach out to the team at Dermatology Specialists of Charlotte. We will work with you to find the underlying cause of your hyperpigmentation, such as sun exposure or an allergic reaction, and treat it. We will work with you to see if microneedling can help reduce the spot’s appearance and help you keep your skin looking its best going forward.
As microneedling encourages your skin to heal, it becomes firmer. This causes fine lines to disappear, brown spots to fade away, pores to become smaller, and your skin’s condition to improve.
