What is Microneedling?

Microneedling is a cutting-edge skin rejuvenation treatment that enhances your skin’s natural ability to heal and regenerate. Using ultra-fine, sterile needles, the treatment creates micro-channels in the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production. This process improves skin texture, reduces fine lines, and restores elasticity for a firmer, more youthful complexion.

Over time, factors like aging, sun exposure, and environmental damage break down collagen, leading to wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and loss of firmness. Microneedling helps reverse these effects by triggering deep cellular renewal, making it an effective solution for acne scars, enlarged pores, pigmentation, stretch marks, and overall skin dullness.

The procedure is minimally invasive, with a short recovery period. Some redness and mild sensitivity may occur post-treatment, similar to a mild sunburn, but this typically fades within a couple of days. To ensure the best results, a personalised aftercare plan will be provided. Most clients see a noticeable improvement after just one session, with continued enhancements as collagen production increases over time.

Microneedling is commonly used to treat the following:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles

  • Acne scars and other types of scarring

  • Enlarged pores

  • Uneven skin tone and pigmentation

  • Stretch marks

  • Sun damage

  • Loss of skin elasticity and firmness

  • Dull or rough skin texture

  • Melasma and hyperpigmentation

  • Overall skin rejuvenation and collagen stimulation

  • Microneedling is generally safe, but it's not recommended for those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, have active acne, rosacea, psoriasis, open wounds, or a history of keloid scars. If you're on blood thinners or have a bleeding disorder, it's also advised to avoid microneedling.

  • After microneedling, it's recommended to wait at least 24-48 hours before applying makeup to allow the skin to heal properly and avoid irritation. Always ensure your skin is fully recovered and all makeup applicators are clean before resuming makeup use.
