Benefits Of Microneedling Your Lips
By ALEXANDRIA TAYLOR
More Collagen Production
The skin on lips is thinner and doesn’t have a lot of the tissue that produces collage, but microneedling leaves behind tiny wounds that prompt the production of collagen to heal them. More collagen means lips that look more youthful and pouty.
Plump Your Lips
Since microneedling creates tissue that is dense in collagen, it makes your lips look fuller. For some, the non-invasive nature of microneedling could make it a great alternative to lip fillers, which inject collagen directly into the lips.
Help Hydrate
While microneedling may not address dry lips on its own, it can help make your lips more hydrated when used with hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid can be found in products like serums, and microneedling allows the product to be deeply absorbed into the skin.
You Can Do It At Home
To perform microneedling at home, you need the right tools; for a roller, don’t use needles that are larger than 0.25 millimeters. Whether you use a dermal roller or a pen, don't apply too much pressure, and keep your tools clean to prevent infection.
Reduce Lines And Wrinkles
When microneedling, you can also target the area around your lips to get rid of the fine lines and wrinkles that age your lips and face. To take on these lines, you should opt for microneedling done by a professional over a few months for the best results.
