MICRONEEDLING

Collagen induction therapy (CIT) is an aesthetic medical procedure that involves repeatedly puncturing the skin with tiny, sterile needles (microneedling the skin) in order to induce endogenous production of cutaneous collagen.

CIT is often referred to as "microneedling" or "skin needling" in media and literature, however it is important to distinguish CIT from other contexts in which microneedling devices are used on the skin, e.g. transdermal drug delivery, vaccination, etc.

The Eclipse MicroPen™ is a revolutionary cordless dermal micro-needling device used by skincare professionals across the globe. Eclipse MicroPen™ has several advantages over previous generation anti-aging devices such as lasers and dermal needle rollers. Dermatologists and aesthetic practitioners choose the Eclipse MicroPen™ for the following reasons:

• Safety First. The Eclipse MicroPen™ is inherently safer than other products, such as dermal rollers. It utilizes sterile single-use surgical grade disposable cartridge tips. The unique features of the Turbo Safety Cartridge™ ensure the MicroPen™ delivers greater efficiency and superior clinical results while maintaining the highest level of safety for both tha patient and provider. It is also safe for most skin types, which means it is a great procedure for almost everyone!
• Faster is Better. MicroPen’s high-speed motor allows for a more a more efficient yet timely procedure. The rapid pen motion provides a more ​comfortable experience that patients describe as a mild sandpaper-like sensation.
• Customized For You. Each patient has unique skin needs and requirements. The variable pen position feature allows MicroPen™ professionals to customize a treatment for best clinical results.
• Consistent Results. Safety and control features lead to predictable, consistent results. Compared to lasers and dermal rollers, MicroPen™ is able to deliver reliable and improved outcomes for virtually every patient.

A topical gel is applied to clean skin. In most cases your practitioner will use a hydrating hyaluronic acid (HA) gel. This is a soothing product that helps the MicroPen™ glide across your skin creating superficial micro-injuries designed to ultimately improve your skin condition upon re-epithelialization

As the MicroPen™ is applied to the skin, hundreds of superficial micro-channels are created every few seconds. Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) can stimulate the skin’s natural ability to heal itself.  As a result, new collagen and elastin produce softer, firmer skin and can reduce the appearance of wrinkles, acne scars and textural issues.
