Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT)
What is automated CIT?
Collagen Induction Therapy, or CIT, is a new innovation in aesthetic medicine for treating the appearance of fine lines, acne scars and improvement of the skin’s overall appearance. It can also be called Microneedling.
During this procedure, tiny superficial micro channels are created to the skin in order to produce collagen and elastin. The skin’s repair process results in improvement of the appearance of softer wrinkles.
The superficial micro-channels can be combined with topical gels, creams and serums to help enhance and improve the appearance of the skin.
The technology used at our centre is one the most advanced, medical-grade (using sterile stainless steel) automated micro-needling devices on the market and provided by certified and trained skin care technologists.

What are the benefits?
The benefits of micro-needling are a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and younger-looking skin with fewer signs of aging.
This treatment also has a positive effect on hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation, acne scars, traumatic scars and stretch marks and generally creates a fresher appearance and glow to the skin.

What areas of the body can be treated?
Collagen induction therapy can be used on all parts of the body; face, neck, décolleté, arms, hands, legs, abdomen and back.
how long does the treatment take?
The procedure takes 30-60 minutes depending on the size of the area treated.
WHAT IS THE DOWNTIME?
Immediately after the treatment you will notice a bright redness to the skin.
The total healing time depends on the setting used and the number of overlapping passes your skincare professional performs. On average, patients are red up to 2 to 4 days. Many patients heal completely in as little as 24 hours.
Utilizing the home-care recovery quality skincare products, provided by your skincare provider, is required and can help to speed up the healing process.

when will i see results?
Patients notice an immediate “glow” to their skin. Visible changes to the skin develop over the course of several days and weeks. Results continue to improve up to 6 months after the treatment as collagen production continues.
how many treatments will i need?
Some patients only require a single treatment, once per year to achieve optimal results. However, it is recommended for most patients to receive a series of 2-3 treatments spaced about 6-8 weeks apart.
For patients with deep wrinkles, advanced photo-aging, stretch marks or acne scars it is recommended to receive 6-8 sessions at 4-6 week intervals.
