Microneedling
Microneedling is an innovative rejuvenation procedure that uses tiny sterilised needles to promote natural elastin and collagen production.
It can help you to appear younger and more refreshed within six weeks, and results will continue to be visible for months after the treatment. Microneedling can help minimise the look and feel of stretch marks, fine lines and wrinkles. We recommend patients undergo a course of microneedling to see optimal benefits, a course of 3 or 6 treatments can be recommended (depending on the patients’ concerns) with approximately 6 weeks apart between treatments.
What is it?
Microneedling offers unparalleled results by working deep within your skin. During this treatment, we use a special handheld device covered in multiple tiny needles to create tiny punctures. These punctures are so small that they close almost instantly, but, like any skin injury, they trigger your body’s natural healing response to create more collagen & elastin - the building blocks of youthful and healthy skin. Your skin will continue to look brighter & healthier for up to 6 months after the treatment as it repairs & regenerates.
