3D Microneedling

What is 3D Microneedling?

Microneedling is one of the most popular, non-surgical treatments for those who wish to target signs of aging such as wrinkles and fine lines, as well as improve overall skin radiance, texture, firmness and hydration.

Microneedling can also be referred to as collagen induction therapy, as your skin’s natural regeneration processes (which slow down dramatically as we age) are stimulated during the treatment, leading to a natural increase in the collagen content of the skin. Collagen is a critical element in maintaining tight, smooth, healthy and youthful skin.

This treatment is an effective method for anyone looking to reverse the hands of time and combat signs of aging in the neck, chest and face.

Our 3D approach to Microneedling takes results to the next level.

How does 3D Microneedling work?

Microneedling uses a “pen” tipped with 16 tiny, sterile needles that rapidly oscillate while being meticulously run over the surface of the skin. The needles create precise and targeted injuries to the epidermis which subsequently stimulate the body’s natural regeneration processes. During these processes, growth factors are released to the treated area to promote healing and the formation of new, healthy collagen and elastin within the skin, resulting in a rejuvenated appearance.

At The Vanity Lab, we use the innovative DP4 pen, an award-winning piece of technology designed with enough precision to treat even the delicate skin of the eyelids. The needle depth ranges from 0.2 to 3mm, allowing us to tailor your treatment to your specific anatomy and skin concerns. This pen is considered the fastest microneedling device in history, operating at 1400 RPM, leading to a vastly more comfortable experience for patients and superior penetration of topical nutrients deeper into the skin.

Results can be further enhanced by including scientifically proven active trans epidermal solutions as a gliding medium for your treatment. These actives, when combined with microneedling, can reach the layers of your skin where true, lasting and cellular changes take place.

Indications for 3D Microneedling:

• Fine lines & wrinkles
• Sagging skin/loss of elasticity
• Large pores
• Acne
• Pigmentation
• Scars including acne, surgical, burns and stretchmarks
• Dry/Dehydrated skin
• Uneven skin tone and texture
• Dull complexion

How many 3D Microneedling sessions do I need?

At The Vanity Lab, we do not believe in a “one size fits all” approach to skincare. This is why we place such emphasis on the importance of an initial consultation. During this comprehensive consultation, our experts will gain insight into your preferences, concerns, lifestyle, goals and expectations as well as obtain precise and tangible measurements of your skin’s current condition so we can track your progress.

In doing so, they are then able to perfectly curate a bespoke skin health program tailored to your unique needs. Your program will not only include specific recommendations on how many treatments you will require and the ideal time intervals for them but will also include the best medical-grade home care products on the market to enhance and maintain your results

With the above information in mind, and as a very general guideline, patients looking for corrective treatment will require 4 - 8 microneedling sessions at approximately 4-6 week intervals and patients looking for preventive or maintenance treatment will require 1 session every 2-3 months.

When will I see results with 3D Microneedling?

The formation and maturation of the new collagen will take up to 90 days post-treatment. This means that the full results can be expected about 3 months after the treatments. Some patients have reported quicker results and others continue to see improvements for up to a year post-treatment.

Regular 3D Microneedling treatments will maintain skin health, improve skin complexion and promote nourished skin with an all-year-round glow.
