Micro-Injury: The Science-Backed Secret to Looking Younger

A glowing, youthful complexion doesn’t happen by chance – it happens through renewal. One of the most advanced skincare concepts gaining traction today is micro-injury, also known as micro-biostimulation or micro-controlled-injury, as Dr. Lancer often refers to it. This revolutionary technique is designed to make skin look younger, firmer, and more radiant without requiring invasive treatments or downtime.

 

What Is Micro-Injury?

Micro-injury (noun): An intentional, tiny, controlled wound to the skin's surface to stimulate collagen production, cell turnover, and skin regeneration, with no recovery time or visible damage to your skin.

The key to youthful skin is a process called cellular regeneration. When micro-injuries are introduced to the skin, they trigger the body’s natural healing response, kickstarting the production of collagen and elastin. These are the essential proteins that keep skin firm, smooth, and resilient. The result? Skin that appears younger, brighter, and more refined over time.

Dr. Lancer Breakthrough Approach: The Power of Polish

Forget about expensive skin treatments – you can do your very own microneedling alternatives at home. Dr. Lancer’s Method: Polish perfectly blends micro-injury into your daily skincare. Unlike traditional exfoliants that can be too abrasive for daily use, Polish is designed to safely and effectively deliver micro-controlled injury without damaging the skin barrier.

Powered by ultra-fine crystals and pumpkin and pomegranate enzymes, The Method: Polish gently buffs away dead skin cells while stimulating renewal at the surface level. This process mimics the controlled effects of creating micro-wounds, making it one of the most effective daily skincare products for optimal results.

Backed by Clinical Results

Our clinical studies confirm that consistent use of The Method: Polish leads to significant improvements in skin texture, clarity, and overall youthfulness:

  • 100% saw a visible improvement in fine lines and skin texture
  • 98% agreed skin felt smoother
  • 97% saw a visible improvement in wrinkles

These results validate that The Method: Polish delivers the same skin-renewing benefits of micro-injury – without the need for needles, laser skin resurfacing, microneedling or recovery time.

"To look younger, your skin needs to be exfoliated every day. With the Lancer Method, you will start by exfoliating or polishing the epidermis, the skin's top layer, to lay the foundation for transforming your complexion. I view polishing as the key to perking up your skin cells, which get sluggish as you age. Polishing is a crucial step to restarting the repairing activity of your skin cells." – Dr. Lancer

The Lancer Method Uses Controlled Inflammation To Refresh Your Skin

Exfoliation creates "controlled injury". Gentle exfoliation sends a message to the dermis that repair should begin and fresh cells are needed, expediting the turnover of cells in your epidermis. When you are young, facial cell renewal occurs at a rapid pace, which is one of the reasons young skin looks so vibrant and dewy. As you age, the process slows down. The controlled injury achieved by exfoliating turns back the clock by reenergizing the repair process, giving skin a younger, fresher look.

Controlled, repetitive, mechanical stimulation reaches deeper than the epidermis to improve the appearance of your skin. Controlled stimulation of the epidermis signals a cascade of responses in your body. A complex repair process kicks in as if you had a true injury and are activated to repair the wound evenly and quickly.

When you exfoliate, you are signaling controlled inflammation in the skin. The injury your skin experiences is like muscle aches after a hard workout. The process is like a dormant factory going into production. Exfoliation ultimately stimulates the body's mechanism for rebuilding collagen, the key to restoring your skin. The lancer method relies upon the anatomy of the skin to oxygenate itself and to build up growth factors, collagen, glycerol, hyaluronic acid, and other youth-promoting elements that otherwise diminish with age.
