About Microneedling.

Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that promotes natural collagen production by creating tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This stimulates your skin’s healing process, leading to smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin. Ideal for reducing the appearance of scars, fine lines, and wrinkles, microneedling enhances your skin’s texture and tone with minimal downtime. Whether you're looking to treat specific concerns or simply rejuvenate rejuvenate your skin, our microneedling services offer a safe, effective, and long-lasting solution.

Are you ready to glow?

  • For most concerns (fine lines, texture, mild scarring) we recommend 3 – 6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Progressive collagen renewal means you’ll start noticing a smoother, brighter complexion within 2–3 weeks, with maximum results visible around 12 weeks after your final treatment.

  • A topical anaesthetic keeps discomfort minimal—most clients describe a light scratching or prickling sensation. Expect redness (similar to mild sunburn) for 24–48 hours and possible flaking on days 3–5. You may cleanse gently that evening, but avoid make-up, exercise, and active skincare for 24 hours, and apply broad-spectrum SPF daily.

  • Microneedling suits all skin types, but it’s not advised during pregnancy/breast-feeding, if you have active acne, eczema, psoriasis, keloid scarring, recent isotretinoin use (past 6 months), or certain blood disorders. Unsure? Book a free phone or in-clinic consultation first.

FAQs

What can I expect during my microneedling seesion?

During your session, we will double cleanse your face and do a light peel to help best prep your skin for the treatment. If elected, we will apply numbing cream to your skin to ensure comfort (this is personal choice). A device with tiny needles will then be used to create micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen production. The procedure usually takes 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area.

What skin concerns can micronedling treat?

Microneedling is effective for treating a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, enlarged pores, and skin texture irregularities. It helps to rejuvenate and refresh the skin for a smoother, more youthful appearance.

Is microneedling painful?
