What is Collagen Induction Therapy?

Collagen Induction Therapy, or CIT, utilizes micro surgical titanium steel needles to penetrate the skin creating micro openings in the top layer of the skin, thus stimulating the lower layers to produce more collagen and elastin without major damage or pain. Just as you have to stress muscle fibers to build more muscle, this stress on the lower layers of skin will stimulate the body to self-repair with more structural support!

The micro-trauma to the skin created by the needle tips activates blood to the treated site (erythema/redness & in some cases pinpoint bleeding) which release natural growth factors and in return creates the cellular matrix.

Fibroblast cells work to replace collagen fibers of the skin and begin to repair.
The cell renewal is stimulated and the skin starts making more collagen and elastin.

Ingredients such as Mesenchymal Stem Cytokines & High-Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid are be applied to the skin as glide during the treatment.

Results from CIT are cumulative and will continue to build for months even after the treatment has been performed!
