2. Treatment

Microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that enhances the appearance and texture of your skin. Using a precision-controlled, pen-like device with ultra-fine needles, the procedure creates tiny micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. This stimulates your body’s natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production for a firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking complexion.

Your Microneedling Questions

Yes, microneedling is generally considered safe when performed by a qualified practitioner. At our clinic, we use SkinPen, a medical-grade device that creates tiny, controlled punctures in the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production, improving texture, firmness, and overall appearance. Temporary side effects, such as redness, mild swelling, or pinpoint bleeding, are common but usually resolve within a few days. Using a precise, FDA-cleared device like SkinPen ensures the treatment is performed safely and tailored to your skin’s needs.

The number of microneedling sessions needed depends on your skin’s condition and your goals. Most patients benefit from a course of 3 to 8 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. This allows collagen and elastin to build gradually, producing smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin. Your practitioner will assess your skin and recommend a personalised treatment plan to achieve the best long-lasting results.

Microneedling is generally well tolerated, with most patients feeling only mild discomfort or a slight prickling sensation during the treatment. Any redness, tenderness, or minor swelling afterward usually settles within a few days. The procedure is quick, precise, and designed to be as comfortable as possible while effectively improving skin texture and appearance.

Microneedling can be very effective for improving skin texture, fine lines, and acne scars, but the best treatment depends on your individual skin concerns. A consultation with a qualified practitioner will determine whether it’s the right option for you and create a personalised plan for optimal results.
