Microneedling

Microneedling is an intensive skin treatment that uses state of the art technology

to provide collagen inducing results through puncturing the skin with sterile microneedles.

 

This cosmetic procedure helps to boost the skins natural firmness, plumpness and smoothness, and may also improve the appearance of scars, acne and wrinkles and fine lines.

How Does Microneedling Work?

Microneedling is a process which promotes the growth of new collagen and skin tissue, which dramatically improves the appearance of skin imperfections almost instantly.

This results driven facial treatment promotes collagen production by creating micro-wounds and channels in the skin to promote a wound healing response. This allows for powerful serums to be more readily absorbed into deeper layers of the skin, to promote collagen production, or even help with other skin concerns such as pigmentation, acne

and scarring.

 

This powerful treatment is designed to improve the look and feel

of your skin, with visible improvements directly after your first treatment. The powerful anti-ageing benefits will also continue to develop within the skin for weeks after as the skin rejuvenates itself after microneedling.

Why is Collagen so Important?

Collagen is a natural protein found in the body, and

is largely responsible for the structure, elasticity and the glow we find in our skin. In younger years we have an abundance of collagen, however as we age our production slows down dramatically

which leads to wrinkle formation, loss of firmness and elasticity,

and can lead to skin looking dull.

 

This is where microneedling can help! As it creates those

micro-wounds in the skin, it triggers a natural response in the body to form new tissue that is more collagen rich. This leads to younger, firmer and plumper skin – what’s not to love?

Is Microneedling Painful? Is There Any Downtime?

Microneedling isn’t a painful process at all.

It can feel slightly uncomfortable, however the results far outweigh any discomfort!

​

This professional treatment does not have much down time considering the intensity. You may experience initial redness or erythema directly after the treatment, however it does calm down dramatically within the first 24 hours, with most clients noting their skin was back to normal the next day. It is important to let your skin breathe and heal as much as possible within those 24 hours so we do recommend not wearing any makeup and using skincare after that is extremely gentle and hydrating.

How Often Can I Have Microneedling, and How Many Sessions?

Microneedling should ideally be performed once a month to allow for the skins renewal and healing process to be completed. This will allow for the best results each time.

The number of treatments you will receive will vary depending on your specific skin concern or condition you wish to treat. On average six treatments are recommended, however each client and their treatment is highly individual, and some conditions may require more to achieve desired results.

There is no limit on how many sessions you can have.

What Can I Do At Home To Improve My Results?

Whilst we can provide a dramatic difference in the skin with this treatment, you will receive longer lasting results by following up with skincare at home.

This is something we can discuss with you at the time of your appointment and after a consultation.

However, using a vitamin c serum and also a vitamin A or retinol serum prior to your microneedling treatments will start the collagen production in the skin and will improve your professional treatment dramatically.

 

Aftercare products and a skincare routine will differ depending on you and your skin, however we will discuss this with you at the time of your appointment so we can help you achieve the best results possible for you and your skin.

 

Following on from your microneedling treatment we do recommend using serums such as hyaluronic acid, no direct sun exposure, and no hot showers. It is also recommended to use sunscreen post treatment, and ideally to use a physical sunscreen to provide the most protection.
