Microneedling

微針療法

Public Education

Description 描述:
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves creating tiny punctures in the skin using fine needles. This process stimulates the body's natural wound healing processes, resulting in cell turnover and increased collagen and elastin production. Microneedling is performed using a device called a dermaroller or a pen-like tool with tiny needles at the tip.

There are several types of microneedling:

Traditional Microneedling: Uses a roller or pen device with fine needles.
Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling: Combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy for enhanced results.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) Microneedling: Combines microneedling with the application of PRP derived from the patient's own blood.

微針療法，也稱為膠原蛋白誘導療法，是一種微創美容程序，使用細小針頭在皮膚上創造微小穿刺。這個過程刺激身體的自然傷口癒合過程，導致細胞更新和增加膠原蛋白和彈性蛋白的產生。微針療法使用稱為滾針或帶有微小針頭的筆狀工具進行。

微針療法有幾種類型：

傳統微針療法：使用帶有細針的滾筒或筆狀設備。
射頻微針療法：將微針療法與射頻能量相結合，以增強效果。
PRP（富血小板血漿）微針療法：將微針療法與患者自身血液衍生的PRP應用相結合。
