Dermaspark® Collagen-Induction

Collagen-Induction, also known as collagen-induction therapy, is a semi-invasive procedure that has been used effectively for decades. This treatment can help treat wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, hyperpigmentation, age spots, acne, rosacea, and pore size.

The results? A total rejuvenation of the skin with improved tone and texture.

Collagen-Induction involves a hand-held device consisting of tiny surgical-grade needles designed to puncture the skin. The needles create small holes in the skin’s surface. Much like pixel laser resurfacing, Collagen-Induction works by activating our skin’s natural healing abilities. New cells are created at a rapid rate and collagen production is increased to “heal” the small injuries to the skin, thereby smoothing and toning the overall appearance.

Collagen-Induction can be uncomfortable, but it is not painful. The sensation is similar to a quick sting or small bug bite.

A topical numbing cream can be applied to the skin to ease discomfort. Hyaluronic acid serum may also be applied to help the Collagen-Induction device glide over the skin. A typical Collagen-Induction session lasts approximately 60 minutes.

Results are seen after a few days with full results after two weeks, and most patients require three to six treatments administered once a month, depending on the area treated and the results you are trying to achieve.

Collagen-Induction treatments are for all skin types and can be used on all parts of the body: face, neck, décolleté, arms, hands, legs, abdomen and back. Our trained Collagen-Induction skincare professional will customize the treatment for your unique skin conditions and needs.

Collagen-Induction typically requires 3 to 6 treatments 6 weeks apart.

Before the treatment, we use a topical numbing cream to minimize discomfort. During the treatment, you will feel a vibration and a slight prickling sensation but overall, the treatment should be comfortable. Immediately after the treatment, your skin can feel warm and sensitive to the touch, similar to a mild sunburn.

You will start to see visible results a few days after treatments, with full results still visible a few months after you have completed your treatment plan.

Downtime is minimal however we recommend avoiding makeup for 1-2 days after your treatment. Skin will feel tight and dry, therefore a hydrating serum and SPF should be applied frequently.
