Microneedling
Collagen Stimulation. Skin Rejuvenation. Real Results.
Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT), is one of the most effective treatments for smoothing texture, minimizing scarring, and stimulating your skin’s natural collagen production.
At Andreea Skin Studio, we use SkinPen®, the first FDA-cleared microneedling device, to deliver precise, safe, and professional-grade results. This minimally invasive treatment works by creating thousands of controlled micro-injuries in the skin to trigger a healing response, boosting collagen, elastin, and cell turnover.
The result? Firmer, smoother, healthier-looking skin with visibly improved tone and texture over time.
Note: Microneedling is not performed on first-time clients or clients who have not prepped their skin to studio protocol.
