Microneedling and Meta Therapy are often mentioned in the same breath. Both stimulate the skin with tiny perforations to trigger natural repair. Yet they differ fundamentally in technique, safety and results. Here is where the difference lies.
What is microneedling
Microneedling uses small needles to create tiny channels in the skin, prompting it to repair itself and produce collagen. This is often done with a roller or pen with free needles, without needle guidance. As a result, the perforation depth can vary and needles can move sideways, which makes the outcome less predictable.
What is Meta Therapy
Dermatude Meta Therapy is a patented mechanical method that creates millions of micro-perforations at a constant, safe depth, with needle guidance. At the same time, high concentrations of active ingredients are delivered deep into the skin. This activates natural cell renewal and the skin’s own production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, without compromising the skin’s protective function.
The key differences
Precision. Meta Therapy works with needle guidance at a fixed depth, whereas the free needles of microneedling can perforate more irregularly and sometimes too deeply.
Safety. Thanks to that controlled depth, Meta Therapy carries no risk of subcutaneous scarring or damage to the connective tissue.
Comfort. Meta Therapy is painless and requires no downtime; you can wear make-up again the next day.
Active ingredients. During the treatment, active ingredients are delivered deep into the skin right away, which reinforces the effect.
Efficiency. The higher perforation density per second gives a more even and faster visible result.
A controlled, natural alternative
Meta Therapy stimulates the skin’s own repair ability, making it a natural alternative to a facelift, without fillers or downtime. The treatment is always performed by certified specialists, who tailor the depth and approach to your skin.
In short
Microneedling and Meta Therapy work on the same principle, but Meta Therapy does so in a controlled, safe and comfortable way. Want to experience what it can do for your skin? Read more about Meta Therapy, find a specialist near you or take the free skin analysis.
