Skin needling

What Is Skin Needling?

Skin needling, also known as microneedling or collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive treatment that works by creating tiny micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. These micro-channels stimulate the skin’s natural healing response and encourage collagen and elastin activity.

This treatment may help improve the look of uneven texture, fine lines, pigmentation irregularities and mild scarring. You can also explore chemical peel consultations or learn about PRP Skin when considering different approaches.

Benefits of Skin Needling

Skin needling encourages natural collagen production, which may help improve firmness and overall skin resilience.

By supporting healthy cell turnover, this treatment may reduce the appearance of roughness, enlarged pores and uneven surface texture.

Skin needling may help brighten the appearance of uneven tone and support a clearer, more balanced complexion.

This treatment can be customised to address scarring, congestion, dullness and ageing-related changes.

Most individuals experience mild redness that settles within a short period, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.

How Skin Needling Works

Your clinician will assess your skin concerns, goals and suitability for treatment.

The skin is cleansed, and numbing may be applied depending on the device and your comfort needs.

A specialised device is used to create micro-channels across the treatment area, encouraging natural skin renewal.

Targeted serums and calming products are applied to support hydration and recovery.
