Skin needling stimulates the body’s natural wound healing response underneath the skin. This treatment has been performed for many years and has been proven to treat a number of skin conditions and problems including improving overall skin texture, smoothing fine lines, wrinkles and more.
Although primarily used on the face, this procedure can be carried out anywhere on the body, such as on stretch marks on the thighs and abdomen, and generally on all skin types.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
During the treatment, tiny needles safely penetrate into the skin to create microscopic channels. Topical local anaesthetic is administered prior to treatment to reduce discomfort. The ‘damage’ to the dermis creates a controlled skin injury. It triggers the body to fill these micro wounds by producing new collagen and elastin which generates new skin cells to literally ‘repair’ itself, thus the skin becomes thicker, plumper and more youthful. Neocollagenesis following treatment leads to the reduction of scars and aids in skin rejuvenation, skin texture, firmness and hydration.
Used for a wide variety of purposes, skin needling treatment can assist with:
Acne scarring
Stretch marks
Fine lines and wrinkles
Pigmentation
Enlarged pores
Blackheads
Scarring
We recommend anywhere between 3-10 treatments, depending on your skin condition. Clients with more severe skin conditions, such as major scarring or stretch marks may require between 6-10 treatments.
A topical anaesthetic is applied to the area 30 minutes before treatment in order to reduce any discomfort and make the experience as pleasant as possible. Most clients describe a mild tingling feeling.
