Microneedling
Unlock Your Skin’s Natural Glow
Revitalise Your Skin with Microneedling
Whether you’re looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and scars or enhance your skin’s natural radiance, micro-needling is a powerful, non-invasive solution that delivers stunning results.
What is Microneedling?
Micro-needling, or collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive procedure that uses fine, sterile needles to create tiny, controlled punctures on the skin’s surface. These micro-injuries stimulate the skin’s natural healing process, triggering the production of new collagen and elastin—two essential proteins that keep the skin firm and smooth and give it elasticity and a youthful appearance, which can reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars. Microneedling can help reduce the appearance of pores, smooth out uneven skin texture, and improve overall skin tone. It is particularly effective for reducing acne scars, stretch marks, and hyperpigmentation, resulting in a more even and radiant complexion.
Microneedling also creates tiny channels in the skin, allowing topical skincare products to penetrate more deeply and effectively. This can enhance the efficacy of serums, moisturisers, and other treatments after the microneedling procedure, leading to better hydration, nourishment, and overall skin health.
When it comes to microneedling, the choice of device can significantly impact your experience and results. At our clinic, we use both the SkinPen® and DermaPen®—two of the leading microneedling devices on the market.
SkinPen®:
- FDA-Cleared: The SkinPen® is the first microneedling device to be cleared by the FDA, ensuring the highest safety and efficacy standards.
- Precision and Consistency: SkinPen® is known for its precise, adjustable needle depth, allowing highly customised treatment. This makes it ideal for targeting specific skin concerns such as fine lines, acne and surgical scars, and hyperpigmentation.
- Minimal Downtime: With SkinPen®, most clients experience minimal redness and irritation, with recovery time typically ranging from 24 to 48 hours.
DermaPen®:
- Versatility: DermaPen® is renowned for its versatility. It offers multiple speed and depth settings that can be tailored to different areas of the face and body. This flexibility makes it effective for treating a broader range of skin concerns.
- Reduced Discomfort: DermaPen® features advanced oscillating vertical needling technology, which enhances the treatment's precision and reduces discomfort during the procedure.
- Results: The DermaPen®’s micro-channels allow for deeper penetration of skincare products, amplifying their effectiveness and delivering more noticeable results.
Both SkinPen® and DermaPen® are excellent choices for micro needling, and our experienced practitioners will help you determine the best option based on your skin type, concerns, and treatment goals.
Why Choose Microneedling with PRP?
For those looking to take their results to the next level, we offer microneedling with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy, commonly known as the “vampire facial.” PRP is derived from your own blood and is rich in growth factors that accelerate the healing process and enhance collagen production. This combination treatment not only boosts the effectiveness of microneedling but also reduces recovery time and enhances skin rejuvenation, leaving you with a glowing, youthful complexion.
Benefits of Microneedling
- Boosts Collagen Production: Helps to firm and smooth the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Improves Skin Texture and Tone: It is ideal for minimising the look of acne scars, stretch marks, and large pores.
- Absorption of Skincare Products: Allows for deeper penetration of serums and creams, maximising their efficacy.
- Safe and Effective for All Skin Types: It is suitable for a wide range of skin tones and textures, with minimal downtime.
Here are three key advantages of this combination treatment:
- Accelerated Healing and Enhanced Results: PRP contains growth factors and proteins that accelerate the body's natural healing process. When applied during microneedling, PRP boosts collagen production and tissue regeneration, leading to faster recovery and more pronounced improvements in skin texture, tone, and elasticity.
- Reduced Appearance of Scars and Hyperpigmentation: The combination of micro needling and PRP is particularly effective in reducing the appearance of acne scars, surgical scars, and hyper and hypopigmentation. PRP enhances the skin's ability to heal and regenerate, leading to a more even skin tone and a smoother complexion.
- Increased Skin Rejuvenation: PRP is derived from the patient's own blood, making it rich in natural growth factors that stimulate skin rejuvenation at a cellular level. This results in firmer, plumper, and more youthful-looking skin, with reduced fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of ageing. The treatment also helps to improve skin hydration and overall vitality.
What to Expect During Your Microneedling Session?
Consultation:
We start with a thorough skin assessment to ensure microneedling is right for you. Our experts will discuss your skincare goals and tailor the treatment to meet your needs.
Preparation:
A numbing cream is applied to your skin to ensure maximum comfort during the procedure. This takes about 20-30 minutes to take effect.
The Procedure:
Using a state-of-the-art micro needling device, we carefully treat the targeted areas, creating micro-injuries that stimulate the natural healing process. If you've opted for PRP, the plasma will be applied immediately after micro needling to maximise its benefits.
Post-Treatment Care:
After the procedure, your skin may appear slightly red, similar to a mild sunburn, but this will subside within a day or two. We'll provide you with aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and results.
Follow-Up:
Multiple sessions may be recommended, depending on your skincare goals. Our team will work with you to develop a personalised treatment plan.
