No injections are given. At Melior Clinics in Tallinn microneedling is done on the face, neck and d\u00e9colletage with HH and F serums for hydration, pigmentation, acne-prone skin and expression lines, and on the scalp for thinning hair.","melior_seo_body":"<h2>What microneedling is and how it works<\/h2><p>The needles create many small channels in the skin, through which serum ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, peptides, niacinamide or PDRN reach deeper than a cream would. The light micro-injury also starts natural repair and collagen production, so the effect builds up gradually over a course. On the scalp the same principle works around the hair follicles.<\/p><h2>Microneedling at Melior Clinics<\/h2><ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/microneedling-with-hh-collagen-type-iii\/\">HH Collagen Type III<\/a>\u2013 collagen and peptides for tired, dry skin<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/microneedling-with-hyaluronic-acid-hh-ha\/\">HH HA<\/a>\u2013 hyaluronic acid for hydration<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/microneedling-with-hh-nad-complex\/\">HH NAD+ Complex<\/a>\u2013 dull skin and fine lines<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/microneedling-with-hh-pdrn\/\">HH PDRN<\/a>\u2013 skin recovery, fine lines and superficial scars<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/microneedling-for-pigmentation-with-hh-amber\/\">HH Amber for pigmentation<\/a>\u2013 succinic acid, niacinamide and glutathione<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/microneedling-f-ha\/\">F-HA<\/a>\u2013 1.5% hyaluronic acid for dry skin<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/f-ha-glow-mesotherapy-with-microneedling\/\">F-HA GLOW<\/a>\u2013 dull complexion and pigmentation<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/mesotherapy-with-microneedling-f-btx\/\">F-BTX<\/a>\u2013 peptide serum for expression lines<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/microneedling-for-acne\/\">F-AC for acne and oily skin<\/a>\u2013 ZnPCA, niacinamide and panthenol<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/microneedling-for-hair-with-hh-hair-filler\/\">HH Hair Filler for hair<\/a>\u2013 thinning hair<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/exoglow-hair-exosomes-solution-for-shiny-hair\/\">Exosomes with microneedling for hair<\/a>\u2013 thinning hair and a sensitive scalp<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/teenus-toode\/fusion-mesotherapy-with-microneedling-for-hair\/\">Fusion for hair<\/a>\u2013 F-Hair or F-Hair Men serum<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/prices\/\">Prices are in the price list<\/a><\/li><\/ul><h2>What the treatment involves<\/h2><p>At the consultation the specialist assesses the skin or scalp and chooses the serum. After cleansing (and exfoliation for F treatments) and, if needed, numbing cream, microneedling is done and a soothing mask applied. A session takes 45\u201360 minutes.

Usually recommended:<\/p><ul><li>no make-up for 24 hours, and no hair washing for 24 hours after a scalp treatment;<\/li><li>no sauna, sunbeds, exercise or strong sun for 48 hours, and no hot blow-drying or colouring after hair treatments;<\/li><li>SPF 50 for at least a week, and no acids or retinol for a few days;<\/li><li>other injectable or device treatments no sooner than 2\u20133 weeks later.<\/li><\/ul><h2>Frequently asked questions<\/h2><h3>Does microneedling hurt?<\/h3><p>Most patients describe light pricking. Numbing cream is used for sensitive skin.<\/p><h3>Microneedling or mesotherapy: what is the difference?<\/h3><p>In classic<a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/categories\/mesotherapy\/\">mesotherapy<\/a>the cocktail is injected with micro-injections. In microneedling the serum is applied to the skin and absorbed through micro-channels, while the needling itself stimulates skin renewal. Services named \u201cmesotherapy with microneedling\u201d involve no injections either.<\/p><h3>When are results visible?<\/h3><p>The skin often looks fresher within days; larger changes develop over 2\u20133 weeks and through the course. For hair, first changes usually show after 3\u201312 weeks, the greatest effect at 3\u20136 months.<\/p><h3>Does microneedling help with hair loss?<\/h3><p>It can support the scalp and follicles, but the cause of hair loss is assessed first; with untreated hormonal hair loss, suitability is discussed separately.<a href=\"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/categories\/plasmateraapia-en\/\">PRP plasma therapy<\/a>is another scalp option.<\/p><p>The service is provided by Melior Clinics (Star Company O\u00dc, Estonian Health Board (Terviseamet) licence L04198), Liivalaia 53, Tallinn, Stockmann department store, 5th floor.<\/p>"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat\/1362","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/product_cat"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/melior.ee\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?product_cat=1362"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
