What s the difference between micro-channeling and micro-needling?

I have a new blog up!

PSA for NZ Skin Therapists: We’re seeing too many microneedling treatments performed without proper skin preparation or aftercare guidance. This isn't just a missed opportunity—it’s a risk. 🔬 Microneedling without barrier prep can: - Trigger flare-ups in sensitive/reactive clients - Delay wound healing or increase PIH - Undermine client results (and trust) ✨ Pre-treatment isn’t a luxury; it’s protocol. ✨ Post-care isn’t a product upsell; it’s healing insurance. Let’s raise the bar together: ✅ Educate clients. ✅ Prep the skin. ✅ Respect the healing cascade. 💡 If you're performing skin needling already, make sure your protocols include barrier assessment, inflammation control, and rebuilding strategies post-procedure. If not, reach out and we ll hook you up! #GlowResponsibly #NeedleWithCareNZ #SkinTherapistNZ #MicroneedlingNZ #ClinicalExcellence #AdvancedSkinTherapy #PreAndPostCare #NZBeautyIndustry

Cosmetic needling enhances; CIT repairs. The deeper you go, the more your contraindications shift from cosmetic safety to medical risk management.

Myth: “The bloodier the treatment, the better the results.” Reality: Collagen activation is just as effective at 1mm as at 3mm. Excessive bleeding = unnecessary trauma. Numbing creams reduce results and can damage skin integrity. Correct microneedling should be tolerable, safe, and effective.
