5 Reasons Microneedling Is the Go-To Skin Treatment in Queenstown
Combining Adventure with Self-Care
Queenstown, Otago, is known for adventure—bungee jumping, skiing, breathtaking hikes—but it’s also a prime spot for next-level skincare. More residents and visitors are discovering microneedling as a powerful way to rejuvenate their complexion. Here are five data-driven reasons why you should consider this treatment at Parlour Skin.
1. Proven Collagen Stimulation
A 2019 meta-analysis in the Journal of Dermatology and Cosmetic Science found microneedling can trigger up to a 200% increase in collagen fibers after a series of treatments.
Increased collagen levels lead to firmer, tighter skin—a must when battling the effects of sun, wind, and even dryness in Queenstown’s alpine climate.
2. Versatile for Multiple Skin Concerns
Hyperpigmentation, Acne Scars, Fine Lines: Microneedling addresses them all by promoting faster cell turnover.
Adaptable Protocol: At Parlour Skin, I can tailor the needle depth and frequency to focus on your primary concerns, from stubborn scars to early signs of aging.
3. Minimal Downtime Suits Active Lifestyles
Typical Recovery: Mild redness or swelling for 24-48 hours.
Ideal for Queenstown’s Adventurers: You can quickly return to exploring local trails or enjoying the nightlife without a lengthy recovery.
4. Enhances Product Absorption
Scientific Backing: Studies indicate that topical serums applied post-microneedling can penetrate up to 90% more effectively than on untreated skin.
Boost Your Routine: Whether you’re targeting dryness or dullness, combining microneedling with high-quality serums amplifies your results.
5. Safe for Most Skin Types
Clinical Consensus: Microneedling is generally safe for various skin tones and textures, reducing the risk of complications compared to more aggressive treatments.
Professional Care: At Parlour Skin, you’ll receive a thorough consultation to rule out contraindications (like active infections) before proceeding.

After a day soaking in the panoramic views of Otago’s mountains and lakes, why not treat yourself to a rejuvenating session at Parlour Skin? You’ll leave feeling relaxed, revitalised, and ready to show off that post-treatment glow.
