What is Microneedling?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive skin treatment that promotes skin rejuvenation. By using a specialised device, equipped with fine needles, microneedling creates micro-injuries in the superficial layers of your skin. These tiny punctures stimulate your body’s natural healing processes, leading to increased collagen and elastin production. The result? Youthful, radiant skin with improved texture and tone.  It is classed as the “beauty industry standard.”

How Does Microneedling Work?

  1. Preparation: Before the treatment, a qualified skincare professional will apply a topical numbing cream to ensure your comfort. This step is crucial for minimising any sensation during the procedure.
  2. Microneedling Procedure: Once your skin is prepped, the microneedling device will be gently moved across your skin. The tiny needles create controlled micro-injuries, which encourage the body’s healing response.
  3. Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, a soothing serum or mask is often applied to enhance healing. Your skin may appear slightly red, similar to a mild sunburn, but this typically subsides within a few hours.
Key Points:
  • Minimally invasive and safe
  • Procedure takes 30-60 minutes
  • Minimal downtime
  • The skin continues to improve up to 8 months after the procedure

Benefits of Microneedling

Microneedling offers an array of benefits for various skin types and concerns. Here are some of the most notable advantages:

  1. Improves Skin Texture: The increased collagen production leads to smoother, more even skin texture, reducing the appearance of rough patches.
  2. Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: By promoting collagen synthesis, microneedling helps diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving you a more youthful look.
  3. Minimises Scars: This procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals dealing with acne scars, stretch marks, or other types of scarring, as it helps to remodel the skin.
  4. Enhances Product Absorption: The micro-channels created during the treatment allow for improved penetration of topical skincare products (e.g. exosomes and polynucleotides), enhancing their effectiveness.
  5. Safe for All Skin Types: Microneedling is suitable for all Fitzpatrick skin types, making it a versatile option for anyone looking to improve their skin’s appearance.
  6. Long-lasting Results: With a series of treatments, patients often see cumulative benefits, leading to long-lasting improvement in skin appearance. With continuous improvements up to 8 months after the procedure.
Key Points:
  • Safe and effective for all skin types
  • Long-lasting results with continued treatments
  • Minimal recovery time
