Why Microchanneling is Your Ultimate Solution for Skin Rejuvenation| LAGOMIA
Lagomia Boutique has partnered with Procell Therapies with the latest technology that effectively addresses a variety of skin concerns and involves minimal to zero downtime. Small punctures, termed "micro-injuries," are produced by vertically pressing onto the skin, forming exact micro-channels rather than sliding or moving across its surface.The stamping technique ensures that no scratching or tearing of the skin occurs.
Unlocking Radiant Skin
In the pursuit of smooth and youthful skin, countless treatments flood the market, promising miracles. However, amidst this sea of options, microchanneling emerges as a standout solution for achieving skin rejuvenation. This article will delve into the benefits of microchanneling, identifying the ideal candidates for this treatment, elucidating why it surpasses traditional methods like microneedling and botox, and providing essential post-care guidance.
Every passing day contributes to both visible and invisible signs of aging. Factors such as sun damage, internal inflammation, exposure to chemicals, and the effects of gravity all contribute to the gradual loss of youthful vitality in your skin. Around the age of 30, we experience a significant decline, losing about 75% of our bone marrow stem cells, and by age 50, this decreases to only 2% compared to a newborn, who starts with 100%. With fewer regenerative stem cells available for repair, the body's ability to heal diminishes, leading to slower and less effective recovery processes and heightened levels of inflammation. Consequently, skin imperfections become more pronounced as we age.
Benefits of Microchanneling:
- Stimulates collagen production, promoting firmer and smoother skin texture.
- Enhances skin elasticity, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Improves skin tone and reduces hyperpigmentation, resulting in a more even complexion.
- Minimizes the size of pores, leading to refined and clearer skin.
- Increases the effectiveness of skincare products by allowing better absorption into the skin.
- Requires minimal downtime, making it a convenient option for busy individuals.
Why Microchanneling Excels Over Microneedling and Botox:
The image above depicts the uniform and superficial stamping from the Procell Therapies device, whereas microneedling and derma rolling induce minor skin injuries to initiate the body's natural healing response, resulting in skin rejuvenation. Microchanneling enhances this process by utilizing a sterile, single-use device. Microchanneling employs shorter needles (0.25 mm to 1.0 mm, typically 0.25 mm to 0.5 mm) compared to microneedling's 2.0 mm needles. These shorter needles target epidermal stem cells, avoiding potential harm to dermal cells. This precise depth control minimizes the risk of permanent damage. Unlike microneedling, which can lead to uncontrolled depths, microchanneling ensures safe treatment at 0.25 mm and 0.5 mm depths. Additionally, microchanneling preserves natural lymphatic drainage, unlike botox, which can disrupt it and cause complications. Microchanneling offers a cost-effective solution, with treatments typically starting at $250, compared to microneedling, which often starts at the higher price point of $400.
Ideal Candidates for Microchanneling:
Microchanneling is suitable for individuals of all skin tones and Fitzpatrick levels. Ideal candidates include:
- Those looking for a non-invasive and low-risk procedure for skin rejuvenation.
- Individuals with mild to moderate skin aging or sun damage.
- Those looking to increase collagen and elastin production within the skin.
- Individuals with rough texture, large pores, superficial acne and dull skin.
- People with busy lifestyles who prefer minimal downtime.
Non-Ideal Candidates for Microchanneling:
- After treatment, refrain from washing your face for the initial 6 hours. Following this period, gently cleanse the treated area with a mild cleanser and apply moisturizer as needed.
- Avoid applying any topical products for at least 90 minutes post-therapy. Expect your skin to appear pink or red for the first 24 to 48 hours.
- Refrain from exfoliation for a minimum of 7 days and avoid direct sunlight for at least 7 days. Use adequate sun protection when outdoors.
- Abstain from swimming or jogging in the rain for 72 hours and refrain from vigorous exercise during this time.
- Do not take anti-inflammatory medication before or after treatment and avoid applying makeup for the initial 6 hours following the procedure.
Post-Care Recommendations:
There is typically no lingering discomfort, and we employ various strategies to minimize any discomfort during the treatment. After the procedure, many individuals experience a sensation of tightness in their skin.
After undergoing microchanneling treatment, it's essential to follow these post-care guidelines to optimize results and ensure proper healing:
- Keep the treated area clean and avoid touching it unnecessarily to prevent infection.
- Apply a gentle moisturizer and sunscreen daily to protect the skin and promote healing.
- Avoid strenuous activities, excessive sun exposure, and sauna or steam room sessions for at least 24-48 hours post-treatment.
- Refrain from using harsh skincare products or exfoliants until the skin has fully recovered.
- Follow up with your skincare provider for any concerns or questions regarding your post-treatment care.
Microchanneling stands as a revolutionary approach to skin rejuvenation, offering unparalleled benefits and safety compared to traditional methods like microneedling and botox. By stimulating collagen production, improving skin texture and tone, and enhancing product absorption, microchanneling empowers individuals to achieve radiant and youthful-looking skin. With its minimal downtime and impressive results, microchanneling is undoubtedly worth considering for anyone seeking to revitalize their skin and unlock their true radiance.
