Facial MMP: microinfusion of medication into the skin

How it works

In MMP, a microneedle device, similar to the one used in micropigmentation, deposits the active ingredient into the dermis as the needles penetrate the skin. This way, the product reaches the depth where it should act, evenly and with less waste than applications on the skin surface.

The treatment combines two effects: the stimulus of the microneedles, which activates collagen production, and the action of the infused ingredients, chosen for each goal. On the face, it is used for rejuvenation and to improve glow, texture and dark spots.

Indications

• Dull skin, texture and poresDull skin, uneven texture and fine lines.
• Dark spots and melasmaWith lightening agents, as support in the treatment of dark spots.
• Acne scarsSuperficial scars and skin irregularities.
• Wrinkles and expression linesFine lines and loss of skin quality.

Treated areas

What a session is like

After the skin is cleaned, a numbing cream is applied. The doctor prepares the active ingredients defined at the evaluation and applies the device over the whole treated area. A session lasts about 1 hour.

Recovery

The skin is red and tender, and small dots or thin crusts may appear, which come off within a few days.

Sessions and results

The number of sessions and the interval between them depend on the dermatologist's individual evaluation and on each patient's clinical concern. The improvement is progressive and varies from person to person.

Contraindications

MMP is not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding, over inflamed acne, wounds, infections or active herpes, for people prone to keloids, or for those allergic to the ingredients used. Recent use of isotretinoin and bleeding disorders require evaluation.

At the evaluation, the dermatologist reviews your health history, current medications and previous procedures to confirm the indication.
