Skin needling works by creating tiny micro injuries in the skin, which triggers the skin’s natural healing process.Michal also talks about why she is careful about what is used during skin needling, what happens to the skin after treatment, and why it’s important to let your skin do its job rather than trying to stop the healing process.If you’ve ever wondered what skin needling actually does and why it can be such a powerful treatment, have a listen.🎙️ Beauty Bites Unfiltered📍 Beauty & Brow, Penrith NSW
