Microneedling

What is a Microneedling treatment?

A Microneedling treatment is a cosmetic procedure that involves using a device to create tiny punctures in the skin. This triggers the skin’s natural healing process, which results in the production of new collagen and elastin. The result is smoother, firmer, and younger-looking skin.

Who is a good candidate for Microneedling?

Microneedling is suitable for most skin types and can be used to treat a variety of concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, and hyperpigmentation. Your doctor will be able to assess whether you are a good candidate for the procedure during a consultation.

What can I expect during a Microneedling treatment?

To prepare for the treatment, your practitioner will thoroughly clean your skin. During the treatment a device will be used to create tiny punctures in the surface of your skin. The depth of the punctures can be adjusted to suit your individual needs. After the treatment, your practitioner will apply a soothing serum or mask to your skin.

How long does a Microneedling treatment take?

Microneedling treatments usually take 30 minutes to an hour.

Is there any downtime after a Microneedling treatment?

There is usually some redness and swelling after the treatment, but this typically goes away within a day or two. You may also experience some dryness and peeling of the skin in the days following the procedure. It is important to avoid sun exposure and use sunscreen during this time. Will I see instant results? You will definitely notice an improvement after just one session, however depending on the desired outcome we recommend a course of treatments to see a significant change.
