MicroChanneling activates your body’s natural regenerative ability to tighten and lift the skin, stimulating rather than utilising destructive and inflammatory techniques. This means a treatment that is typically well tolerated and has minimal downtime, while encouraging healthy skin by stimulating the rejuvenation cascade for new collagen production.
MicroChanneling can be used to address concerns with ageing such as fine lines and wrinkles, and skin laxity. It is also used to address stretch marks and scars – acne and surgical scars, and pigmentation and textural concerns.
Procell Therapies MicroChanneling gun is used to create targeted micro-channels in the skin, without the dragging action across the skin that can damage the surface of the skin. Procell Therapies Microchannel Delivery Serums are also used in combination with MicroChanneling. These highly concentrated growth factor serums encourage healing and have anti-inflammatory properties, amplifying collagen response and decreasing recovery time.
