Microneedling
A non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment that promotes collagen synthesis and enhances skin appearance
Microneedling
What is it?
Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves using a handheld device with tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. The treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production, improves skin texture and tone, and can reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scars and other skin imperfections.
How Does it Work?
Microneedling works by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin using a specialised device with fine, sterile needles of varying lengths to stimulate collagen production within the skin to deliver improvements on many different skin conditions. These micro-injuries stimulate the body's natural healing process, triggering the production of collagen and elastin. Additionally, microneedling enhances the absorption and efficacy of topical skincare products, making it an effective treatment for various skin concerns.
What Conditions Does Microneedling Treat?
Microneedling (also known as skin needling and collagen induction therapy) is a cosmetic procedure that can effectively treat a variety of skin conditions including fine lines and wrinkles, open pores, acne scarring, surgical scarring and stretch marks.
