MICRONEEDLING
Reverse signs of ageing, reduce scarring, and treat hyperpigmentation with microneedling—a popular and effective cosmetic treatment that has little downtime. This procedure stimulates the natural production of elastin and collagen, resulting in a fresher, healthier, and younger-looking complexion.
How it Works
Maximum Efficiency
Microneedling involves pricking the skin with small, sterilised needles. These tiny holes act as controlled wounds, prompting your body to create more elastin and collagen to heal. This effectively rejuvenates the skin cells and is suitable for all skin types and ages.
The Comfort Of The Procedure
Before we begin, we massage a numbing cream into your skin. During the treatment, you shouldn’t feel any pain, just some tingling. We apply a cooling gel once the session is finished.
Long-Lasting Results
The treatment is highly effective at minimising acne and scarring, fine lines and wrinkles, large pores, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone. Results build gradually, and a course of 3-6 sessions is usually recommended for optimal long-lasting results.
Safe for All Skin Types
The procedure is safe and easy to use. Crucially, it can be used on people who have darker skin tones as it doesn’t affect the skin’s tone or pigmentation.

Quick answers to questions you may have
What conditions can microneedling treat?
It treats acne and scarring, aged skin, fine lines and wrinkles, large pores, hyperpigmentation, stretch marks, and uneven skin tone.
How does microneedling work?
Small, sterile needles create tiny wounds in the skin, which stimulates the body’s natural healing process to create more collagen and elastin.
Is the treatment painful?
No, microneedling is not painful, though you may experience tingling during the treatment. We always apply a numbing cream beforehand.
How many sessions will I need?
We usually recommend a course of 3–6 sessions with around 4–6 weeks in between to allow the skin time to heal.
When will I start seeing results?
Most people need a couple of treatments before they start seeing their desired results, depending on how their skin heals.
What areas can be treated besides the face?
While the face is most common, the treatment can also be carried out on the stomach, back, thighs, and arms.
Is microneedling better than home kits?
Yes. Home tools won’t give you the same results and can spread germs, leading to infection. Procedures should only be carried out by a professional.
What is the key aftercare advice?
Refrain from touching or picking your skin while it heals. You must also apply sun cream, as the treated area will be more sensitive to the sun for the first few days.
Does bleeding occur during the treatment?
A small amount of bleeding may occur, but this is completely normal.
How long does a session take?
Each microneedling session will last around 60 minutes.
How does it compare to laser treatments?
Microneedling is more affordable than laser treatment and is suitable for darker skin tones as it doesn’t affect the skin’s tone or pigmentation.
