Skin needling

what is skin needling?

Skin needling is a non-surgical treatment for rejuvenating and replenishing collagen and elastin, enhancing skin tone and texture, shrink enlarged pores, and minimising the visibility of scars and pigmentation.

how does it work?

Skin needling uses ultra fine medical grade micro needles to create to create thousands of tiny micro injuries inducing the body’s natural wound healing response that results in the formation of new collagen and elastin. This leads to the improvement of fine lines and wrinkles, firmness and even texture, pores appear smaller, scars appearing softer and lighter and pigmentation diminished.

Results

Results are visible after 6 weeks and will continue to improve up to 12 weeks. With all skin treatments you will require maintenance appointments, for best results we recommend starting with a course of 3-6 skin needling treatments followed by 1-2 yearly top up treatments.

is there any down time?

It is expected to experience redness, swelling, sensitivity and tenderness which is generally resolved within 24 hours. Slight redness may last between 1-3 days post treatment but can be covered with mineral make up - we recommend Jane Iredale Mineral Make Up. Mild shedding may occur from day 3-5 post treatment. It is highly advised to follow aftercare provided by your therapist to ensure the best results.
