Micro-needling results in the natural response to skin wounding, even though the wound is minute and mainly subcutaneous. A single needle prick would cause an invisible response. However, when thousands or tens of thousands of fine pricks are placed together, one gets a “field effect.” This, therefore, promotes the regular post-traumatic release of growth factors and infiltration of fibroblasts. This automatic reaction produces a surge of activity that inevitably leads to fibroblasts being instructed to produce more collagen and elastin.
