Dermagrace Cosmetic Rejuvenation Opens in Denver Area

Clinic Offers Innovative Collagen Induction Therapy Treatment

Dermagrace Cosmetic Rejuvenation, specializing in collagen induction therapy, announced its grand opening at 9299 S. Broadway, Ste. 100, Highlands Ranch.

“We are thrilled to bring collagen induction therapy (CIT) to the Denver area,” remarked Owner Melissa Coleman. “CIT is by far the most effective treatment for cosmetic rejuvenation of wrinkles, acne scars, surgical scars, and stretch marks. I know this to be true, not only because of my work with clients, but through my own personal experience.”

The procedure can be used to treat several areas of concern, such as:
• Surgical scars
• Hypertrophic scars
• Acne scars and depressed scars
• Wrinkles
• Stretch marks

The objective of CIT is to build up the connective tissue in the lower skin layers (dermal layers) while keeping intact the protective layers of the skin (epidermal layers). Small needle clusters penetrate into the skin, breaking up old collagen strands and stimulating the production of elastin fibers oriented from the deep layers of the dermis to the surface. The result is smoother, thicker, tighter, more even toned skin.

“When we have too many aggressive laser treatments and chemicals peels, we thin our epidermis over time which results in drier and more wrinkled skin,” commented Coleman. “With CIT, the skin actually becomes thicker and does not damage the skin.”

About Dermagrace Cosmetic Rejuvenation

Several years ago, Melissa Coleman was frustrated with spending thousands of dollars on skin care products and procedures that offered little or no results. Coleman became a paramedical esthetician to find an effective method for scar remediation—a passion that originated from the personal impact scars had on her life. She discovered a new procedure used primarily in Europe, Australia, and South Africa called Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) , which is known by other names, such as Micro-Needling, Dry Needling, Multitrepannic Collagen Actuation (MCA), and Per Cutaneous Collagen Induction (PCI). Today, Coleman brings CIT to the Denver area with the opening of Dermagrace Cosmetic Rejuvenation. Visit www.dermagrace.com for more information.
