Revitalize Your Skin with Collagen Induction Therapy at Aesthetic Dose

Are you tired of dealing with acne scars, fine lines, and dull skin tone? Look no further than Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) at Aesthetic Dose in Southborough, MA. This minimally invasive treatment is designed to stimulate collagen production, leaving you with clearer, tighter, and more radiant skin.

How Collagen Induction Therapy Works

CIT uses a device with ultra-fine needles to create microscopic channels in the skin. This gentle stimulation triggers the production of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins that give skin its strength, elasticity, and firmness. As collagen and elastin levels increase, skin texture improves, and fine lines and wrinkles begin to fade.

Benefits of Collagen Induction Therapy

CIT is a versatile treatment that addresses a range of skin concerns, including:

• Acne scarring
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Dull skin tone and texture
• Loss of collagen and elastin

This treatment is suitable for both men and women with skin types ranging from light to very dark. With minimal downtime and lasting results, CIT is an excellent option for those seeking a non-surgical, non-invasive solution.

What to Expect During Treatment

At Aesthetic Dose, our experienced professionals will guide you through the CIT process. Here's what you can expect:

• A custom treatment developed for you based on a skin assessment and consultation.
• The device will be gently moved across the skin, creating microscopic channels.
• Treatment typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
• Mild redness and swelling may occur, but these effects are temporary and resolve quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is CIT Painful?

A: While individual tolerance may vary, Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) is generally considered a comfortable treatment. To minimize discomfort, a topical anesthetic cream may be applied before the procedure. This cream numbs the skin, reducing any sensation of the microneedling device. Most patients report feeling only a mild stinging or prickling sensation during treatment.

Q: How Many Treatments Are Needed?

A: The number of CIT sessions required varies depending on individual skin concerns and goals. Typically, 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart are recommended. This allows for optimal collagen production and skin rejuvenation. Your provider will assess your skin and create a personalized treatment plan.

Q: What Is the Downtime?

A: One of the benefits of CIT is minimal downtime. Most patients can return to normal activities within 24 hours. You may experience mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity, but these effects are temporary and usually resolve within a few days. Makeup can be applied after 24 hours to conceal any residual redness.

Q: Are Results Permanent?

A: While CIT provides long-lasting results, maintenance treatments may be necessary to sustain optimal skin health. Results can last several months to a year or more, depending on factors such as:

• Individual skin concerns and severity
• Skin care routine and product use
• Lifestyle factors (sun exposure, smoking, etc.)
• Frequency of maintenance treatments

To maintain optimal results, your provider may recommend periodic touch-up treatments or a customized skincare plan.
