microneedles
Miniature skin penetrators
Microneedles are tiny needles, typically less than a millimeter long, used to deliver drugs or vaccines through the skin painlessly.
They penetrate only the outermost skin layer, avoiding the nerves that make conventional injections uncomfortable.
Microneedles appear in patches applied like bandages: The vaccine is delivered via a microneedle patch instead of a shot.
They're also used in cosmetic treatments to stimulate collagen production.
