Skin Needling

Skin needling, also known as microneedling or collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves creating tiny punctures in the skin using a device with fine needles. These controlled micro-injuries stimulate the skin’s natural healing process, leading to a range of benefits. Here are some of the key benefits of skin needling:

• Stimulates Collagen Production: The micro-injuries caused by the needles trigger the body’s natural collagen production process. Collagen is a crucial protein that helps maintain skin elasticity and firmness, leading to smoother and more youthful-looking skin.
• Improves Skin Texture: Skin needling can help improve the overall texture of the skin by reducing the appearance of roughness, fine lines, and wrinkles.
• Reduces Scarring: Microneedling can be effective in reducing the appearance of scars, including acne scars, surgical scars, and stretch marks. The procedure encourages the growth of new tissue, which helps to fill in and smooth out the scarred areas.
• Evens Skin Tone: Skin needling can help address hyperpigmentation and discoloration, leading to a more even skin tone.
• Minimises Pore Size: Microneedling can lead to a reduction in the size of enlarged pores, resulting in smoother and more refined skin.
• Enhances Skincare Product Absorption: The micro-channels created during microneedling allow skincare products to penetrate deeper into the skin, making them more effective.
• Safe for Most Skin Types: Skin needling is generally safe for various skin types and tones. The procedure is customizable, and the depth of the needles can be adjusted based on individual skin concerns and sensitivity.
• Minimal Downtime: Compared to more aggressive skin resurfacing treatments, the downtime with microneedling is relatively short. The skin may appear slightly red or feel mildly sensitive for a day or two after the procedure.
• Long-lasting Results: With a series of treatments and proper skincare maintenance, the results of microneedling can be long-lasting, as collagen production continues to improve the skin over time.
• Versatility: Microneedling can be used on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, décolletage, hands, and body, making it a versatile treatment option.
