Dermal Roller: Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT)Collagen Induction Therapy is a procedure that can be performed at home in combination with topical Vitamin A, C and E creams which stimulate collagen production in the skin. CIT is a non-surgical and non-ablative treatment for various skin conditions including aging (wrinkles, lax skin), scarring (acne, surgical), photodamage, and hyperpigmentation (age / brown spots). The process facilitates and stimulates your skin's natural repair without causing permanent epidermal damage.

Clinical studies have shown CIT to be more effective than ablative treatments like laser resurfacing and chemical peels and just as effective as non-ablative treatments such as CO2 laser resurfacing and Fraxel in stimulating collagen and elastin production to thicken the skin thereby minimizing wrinkles and smoothing scars.
