Micro Needling

What is Micro needling?

Micro needling is a type of collagen induction therapy that employs tiny needles to encourage skin regeneration. The collagen production is completely natural; there is no need for chemicals or injections.

In general, micro needling treatments leave you with smoother, healthier, tighter, and more youthful skin. It is also ideal for treating scarring and pigmentation issues.

From the results of clinical studies, micro needling has been shown to be just as effective as treatments such as IPL and laser treatments in stimulating collagen and elastin production.

How It Works

It essentially works by creating hundreds of tiny perforations in the skin.

The microscopic wounds kick starts the bodies healing process without causing damage to your skin. This encourages skin regeneration and the natural induction of collagen and elastin production.

The increase in collagen and elastin helps heal scarring and damaged skin, whilst having an overall firming effect on the skin. Wrinkles and fine lines will be far less noticeable after 

Before treatment, we use a local anaesthetic to eliminate any slight pain you may experience.

After treatment, pin pricks created can often bleed, but heal quickly. In some cases, this bleeding can lead to minor redness or slight surface bruising for up to two days after the treatment. This is completely normal and healthy.

It utilises 9 precisely spaced micro-needles in a small cartridge to create invisible, vertical micro-perforations into the deeper layers of the skin. As a result, the skin shifts its natural repair mechanism into high gear and starts producing collagen and elastin to repair those micro-perforations. The self-repairing property of the skin is a 100% natural form of skin renewal from the inside out. The advantage of micro needling compared to other treatments is that it not only activates cell regeneration, but it also enhances the absorption of active ingredients into the skin following treatment.
