This home device will jumpstart your skins natural rejuvenation processes, it is cost effective and very simple to use.
How does it work
When you glide the device over your face it creates micro wounds to the surface of the your skin. This triggers your body’s natural wound healing response, removing damaged cells and fibres replacing it with newer more healthier ones. Your skin will feel slightly prickly, flushed and warm which is a natural and healthy response, your skin is being very stimulated. When you see the improvement in your skin it will be worth it.
To get a better understanding it is good to know how your skin rejuvenates.
Stages of wound healing
Preventing too much blood loss - Blood vessels narrow and constrict around the wound, blood begins to clot and a scab develops. Your body naturally creates a “blood glue” to hold the plug in place allowing the wound to heal without any nasties getting in.
Defending and cleaning the area- Once the the wound is contained, the blood flow increases to the area. Nutrient rich blood and white blood cells defend and rebuild. White blood cells also send out signals calling for growth factors to repair the area. It may look red and inflamed and very warm to touch. This is all positive it means your body is in fight and protect mode.
Repairing and healing - This is the stage we really want to focus on, especially when you are micro rolling or skin needling. Oxygen rich blood cells increase to create new fresh tissue. Collagen and elastin production increased, dead cells sloughed away and fresh plump cells resulting in healthy glowing skin. It also builds your skins durability and provides a friendly environment for your acid mantle.
