Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to stimulate collagen production, improving skin texture and appearance. The treatment involves using tiny, sterilized needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, which activate the body’s natural wound healing response. This process promotes the production of collagen and elastin, essential proteins that enhance skin firmness, texture, and overall health.

Microneedling is commonly used to address a variety of skin concerns, including:

• Acne scars

• Fine lines and wrinkles

• Stretch marks 

• Large pores 

• Sun damage  

Benefits of Microneedling

• Stimulates Collagen Production: The primary advantage is the boost in collagen and elastin, which helps rejuvenate the skin and reduce visible signs of aging. 

• Improves Skin Texture: It enhances skin tone and texture, resulting in smoother, more even skin. 

• Minimal Downtime: As a minimally invasive procedure, it typically requires little to no recovery time. Patients might experience minor redness or irritation immediately following treatment, which usually resolves quickly. 

• Versatile Treatment: Suitable for various skin types and can be applied to multiple areas, including the face, neck and decolletage.

How many treatments will I need?

As with all skin treatments, professional skin needling treatments need to be administered in a routine manner

It generally takes at least 3 months before a physical improvement can be seen.

Better results will be achieved if the treatment is performed every 4-6 weeks for a series of 3-10 treatments (depending on your skin concern)

Once a full treatment course has been completed, a customised maintenance program will be implemented according to your skin concerns
