Question 4

What is microneedling and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves using fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin. This process stimulates the body's natural wound healing process, resulting in increased collagen and elastin production. The treatment helps to improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of scars, fine lines, and wrinkles, and enhance overall skin tone. At Crane Medical Clinic, we use advanced microneedling devices to ensure precise and effective treatment with minimal discomfort - the results of these far out perform the results of 'microneedling' delivered by skin pens and alike.

Question 5

What are anti-wrinkle injections and how do they work?

Accepted Answer

Anti-wrinkle injections, commonly known as Botox, are a popular cosmetic treatment used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The injections contain a purified protein that temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for causing wrinkles, resulting in smoother and younger-looking skin. The effects typically last for several months, and the procedure is quick with minimal downtime. At Crane Medical Clinic, our experienced Nurse ensures safe and effective treatment tailored to your needs.

Question 6

What is the difference between Botox and other leading anti-wrinkle injections?

Accepted Answer

Botox is a well-known brand of anti-wrinkle injection, but there are other leading brands in the market today. While all these products contain the same active ingredient (botulinum toxin type A), they differ in their formulation, dosage, and diffusion properties. While Botox maybe the most commonly known or an understood name for the treatment it is in fact just a brand name. At Crane Medical Clinic, we use the best products for you and discuss this during your consultation.
