AKA skin needling and collagen induction therapy.
Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that creates thousands of tiny microchannels in the top layer of the skin. The tiny little skin pricks create controlled trauma to the skin, inducing a healing response resulting in the production of new collagen and elastin.
The stimulation of the collagen and elastin helps to reduce lines and wrinkles and improves skin firmness. As the procedure also initiates skin repair, it's fantastic for patients with scarring, in particular rolling scars caused by acne.
The microchannels allow penetration of active substances so they can reach the deepest skin layers, really maximising the treatment results. We have a selection of special skin cocktails that we select especially for you and your skin complaint.
FAQ's
The treatment takes approx. 45 minutes to perform.
The treatment is usually well tolerated, however, we do use a topical local anaesthetic to ensure the treatment is as comfortable as possible.
Although you will see results after 1 treatment, for best results we recommend 5 treatments with at least 2 weeks in between each session.
The skin will be pink/red immediately after treatment, this can last for 24 - 72 hours and it feels like mild sunburn. Depending on the depth of needling, sometime people can experience mild flaking of the skin which can last for 24 - 48 hours.
